We just got a dusting in NoVa but the stinking wind is gusting to 40MPH - it sucks big time. I can't get motivated to heat up the garage to get some work done on the car..

I have well over 2 feet in yard. My 8 year old son made it out to the swingset, climbed to the top (about 12' high) and flipped of the top and completely disappeared in the snow upon landing... This is wild...

Cold weather sucks.
I still have family in South Jersey. They said they got 1 ft. of snow.
The high out here is 57. I think that is cold.
I will never live back there again.
