It's snowing here in Pike County. I know I'm like a big kid when it comes to snow. It's even nicer when you have a nice bay window to watch it while you are sitting by your stove. :D

No mountains and no snow here on Aquidneck Island, just some rain. Still burning wood in the Crane for now, 46degs and windy.

Got about 2 inches so far. The kids already made a snowman. Very fluffy, big-flakes.

Been snowing here too, but everywhere else has a mix .... my house is up in elevation a bit. Nothing sticking -- just wet.

5 inches and still coming down in the form of tiny flakes here in Pocono Pines! :D listening to old time Christmas songs, sewing, and sole heat source coal stove glowing. (Well, the actual stove is not glowing, just a figure of speech!)
Let it snow!!
