We Are Having a Blizzard!!! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

JillandJack · 03-21-2008, 09:40 AM

Man Oh Man, all the snow was melted and even some of my daffodils were starting to peek through. Then, BAM!!!! Today we are having a blizzard. We already have about 8 inches on the ground and expect another 6 by late this afternoon. So I told myself to quit whinning, it could be worse. My thoughts turn to all who are suffering through the massive flooding in Missouri. So I won't complain as I head on out to start the shoveling!

Where do you live. They are calling for snow here tomorrow. But I don't think it is supposed to be alot, if any. And yes, my heart goes out to the Missouri flood victims, also.

Oh boy! I have family in MN and they were getting the same weather as you in WI! I hope you don't get too much snow! Hang in there and stay warm!

Wisconsin- DUH!!! Cheesehead Land-Sometimes I don't think. Well, OK most of the time.

We are getting it in Illinois too!!! I am so sick of snow this year.

Yorkie3 · 03-21-2008, 10:14 AM

All central Indiana is suppose to get is a wintry mix, but just a couple hours north, Chicago is expected to get 6-10 inches according to the weather channel. Feel bad for everyone having crappy weather.....I'm really gonna try not to complain about the heat this summer...lol

KathyinCali · 03-21-2008, 10:14 AM

Ack! We are supposed to be in the mid-high eighties over the weekend

chachi · 03-21-2008, 10:17 AM

I want warm weather and no snow! Its Spring already

ryorkies · 03-21-2008, 11:43 AM

It is very cold here today and windy too, but at least we are not getting snow... thank goodness. Just hang in there and hopefully it will warm up before we all know it. Happy Easter!

Betty'sMom · 03-21-2008, 11:52 AM

You poor people. The dogwood, Bradford pear, redbud, and cherry blossom trees are flowering here! I'm planting a vegetable garden this weekend!! (hopefully)

Yorkiedaze · 03-21-2008, 11:56 AM

We just got an Easter card from my husbands aunt from WI. and she said they are starting to have spring. Poor gal, now she's back to winter. His sister lives in MN. and did at least get a little break when they all came out to Vegas to meet up with us.
We are having beautiful sunny weather (not to rub it in

) but I could do without the March wind!! My son just got into Spain a couple days ago and said it is incredibly beautiful. I just "knew" it. We plan on visiting him in the next two or three months.

this is the exact reason I moved south. I was stranded in the winter of 78/79 and do not want to go thru that one again.
stay indoors and off the roads. keep warm. always have an emergency pack just in case you lose electricity. lots of candles... they provide heat, can be used to warm food, and provide light. if you are really good at it you can also use them for smoke signals.

It is 41 degrees here, but very windy. If I took the dog for a walk, he would blow away.

We are very fortunate though. No snow or rain today. Hopefully, it will get better this weekend.

We're getting hit in SE Michigan, too. Supposed to have 6-8" by the time it is done tomorrow morning. UGH!!!!!!!!
