    Yeah, it turned white and more solid as it rolled up this way.
    To the tune of 8 inches or so.

    9 to 11 inches of snow forecasted here in the next 24 hours.

    I'd rather have the rain...

    I see your puddle picture and raise you my front lawn from September 2008. It was knee deep at the deepest part behind the tree.

    LOL. Even though I have lived out in Cali for sometime, it still cracks me up how everybody gets so excited about a little storm. It is the talk of the century when rain comes, and if we get a few clouds, wind, and steady rain, it is the storm of the century and we are all gonna die. My main gripe is folks cannot drive in it...just need to slow down a bit. If you try to take a oil slickened offramp at 85 like you do when it is dry you are gonna end up on your roof like you did last night....putting her on her "shiny" side! Assclowns I tell ya!

    I wasn't freaked out by this LITTLE weather storm.... :biggrin: I've lived where there is weather TOrnadoes, hurricanes, dust storms Monsoons, and snow storms ... It just hasn't rained here in about 9 months.. I was taking pictures cause the clouds looked cool............. Sheesh I'm just glad that it rained finally this place needs it.

    I feel you Crusty, pictures are your "thing" right now. These guys are *dooty faces for not appreciating that like I do.
    *please do not ban me for the name calling, twas all in jest.
    btw: Not raining now, only a few clouds. Just secured insurance for the new bike. Will pick up about 1:00, while my girl is on lunch break. Roads are dry in and around the South Bay and today is the only day this week that's not supposed to rain, not to mention my only day off. It's warming up now too, 58 degrees. :vtr2:

    You SoCal guys do have it tough, what with the day after day sunshine and temps that vary from slightly cool to hot...

    And there are some wusses that cover the bike up and won't ride if it's under 50 degrees... :rolleyes: (Putting on flame proof one piece suit)

    I feel you. It's suppose to be high of 19 F here this Thursday with lake effect snow and windchill down to 0 F. And to think I went for a ride last Thursday...started at 40F and I rode through sunshine, then rain, then sleet, then full on snow, and came out on the other side of town in full sunshine. Welcome to Michigan.

    Dusting of snow in northern CA, Sacramento, and in to the 30's & 20's. Made for a very chilly ride to work today...but no rain. Just snow blowing off trucks on the highway like little grenades flying at you.
