Default Ok, I like a white Christmas and all, but...

We've already got around 15 inches down in the Last 36 hours and they are calling for as much as 10 more today. No mas!

I should have asked Santa for a snow blower this year.

About half a century ago we here in Holland had snow during this time of the year, but due to human progress we get snow during februari... if we're lucky. Most of the time the snow only falls for about two days. Pretty pathetic ain't it?

I remember snow... fluffy white stuff. We had it once about 10 years ago in February. First time in 50 years that Phoenix got measurable snow.

No snow today though. It's 43F at 10:30pm. High for Christmas should be about 57F.

The nice thing about AZ is that in Phoenix we don't have to deal with the snow, but if we want to go see snow we can usually go for about a two hour drive and find some. It is actually possible (if you are crazy enough) to water ski and snow ski in the same day.

I second IF's comment.
It is 35 degrees Celsius (95 F) here and Xmas day tomorrow is looking to be about the same.
Xmas BBQ lunch and dinner around the pool again!

You guys just haven't lived until you shoveled 15 inches of snow off your driveway and halfway across the street to get your car out and go anywhere. I had shovel that far out into the street cause I live on a side street that doesnt' get plowed by the city until all the main ones do. Some volunteer with a pickup truck and a snow shovel came down our street, but he only made one pass. Had to dig out to there to move my car. Ugh, I really should get a snow blower. Of course we usually only get a snow bad enough to need one every couple years. Most of the snow we get isn't deep enough to need shoveling if you are lazy like me.
