Hey Nancy!   
      
    NB> I much prefer snow   
      
   Not me unless of course we're talking about freezing rain which I wasn't.  Wet   
   and above freezing cold is normal for this time of year.  What we're   
   experiencing now is not the norm for Febuary although snow in Febuary isn't   
   unheard of ... it's just not normal.  The gale force winds predicted for just   
   south of us is what has me nervous, especially if the snow is heavy and wet.    
   :::shudder:::   
      
    NB> although I heard something about high winds, rain and possible   
    NB> thunder overnight tonight.   
      
   Minus the thunder, it sounds like our forecast for overnight until Saturday.    
   Also replace rain with snow although here at sea level it could fall as rain.    
   The high winds have got me spooked.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
