I'd post about the impending doom of snow storms here.. but it'll be mostly clear tomorrow.

High wind alert?

Hmm. Maybe you'll get lucky and have some earthquakes.

hey - are you gonna get hit by the thunder-snow? I'd never heard of it until tonight. I'm not too sure about that.. it's either dangerous, or it's like barking spiders...
"oh.. that must be the thunder-snow..." ...

I doubt it. It's pretty rare. I think I've only noticed it a handful of times.

It's only the meanest, nastiest, ugliest spiders that have lightning accompany their barks. ;-)

We've had it twice in the last couple of years. It's weird. (Thundersnow...not barking spiders)

I bet spiders bark pretty high and we wouldn't hear it.

Break out the blankets and the candles!

You two stay safe during the storm!

No problem. Shouldn't be too bad. The wind is the worst part. But then I remember certain Alaskans and Kansans on my f/list, and I try not to complain about it too much.

I put up a new wind speed meter this year, the old one wore out.
