Well at the Jersey shore we had about 9" of snow Saturday, actually was raining into the evening and this morning it's blowing and drifting snow a good 5" more and gusts to 40 mph.......after some shoveling it's time for some R and R and football....

We have about 14 here but now the drifting starts. Windy and cold today. Going to be a tough game weather wise today. I don't envy anybody sitting in the stands today.

Here in southeast massachusetts we have over two feet and it is still snowing like heck. Not good Corvette weather. What I am interested in is how much snow did they get in western pa. (pittsburgh)?

Woke up to sunny skies and 27 this morning. Winter is brutal here in Dallas. Sorry guys, it got to suck up there sometimes. At least you get us back in the Summer when it 75 there and 110 here.

Received approx. 10" here in the Allentown, PA area. My neighbor is on a cruise, so he let me borrow his snow blower. Still managed to throw out my back even with the blower.

Ready to watch the Eagles if they can get Lincoln Field cleared. Employees coming out of the stadium said they may not have the entire stadium ready by gametime.

In the mean time, shopping ebay for good deals on vette parts. Getting ready for my spring time projects.

Not if we let those islands in the Carribean (Turk & Caicos) join us like they've been asking to do (since 1973). Time to wake our govenment up.
