White Christmas

[KyNola]

After Pat finished with the snow, he sent it a little further Southeast into Kentucky where MrsKyNola and I have about 3 inches on the ground.  The temp was just cold enough to snow and the concrete surfaces stayed just warm enough that I don't have to shovel the driveway or sidewalks!  Perfect snowfall!

Merry Christmas everyone.

It went farther south then KY. Here is what we woke up to in N Alabama.



Going to have to shovel off the Bradley house to do some smoking today.



Merry Christmas to all

I walked out to get the paper!

Merry Christmas!

White stuff is moving off - finally.    Probably got 5-6" here.

Now they can get the roads cleared, as we fly out to NYC tomorrow morning/Noon.........


Merry (white or not) Christmas, everyone!

Hope you make the trip unscathed -- apparently that system is heading into the NE and expected to cause delays and cancellations fairly broadly.  Travel safe and have a very Merry Christams!

Is this where I tell you what a great morning we had at the annual (7AM) Champagne and Caviar party at the beach?  The big AA Christmas breakfast was about 50 yards away - we only got two "backsliders."  Anyway - a beautiful sunny Hawaiian Christmas day in the low 80s.  Just put the turkey in the SRG - didn't even have to put my shoes on to go out to the deck.  I'll at least be kind enough not to post a picture of the weather.

But at least we can cold smoke cheese easier ;D

Looks to be a White Day-After-Christmas as well...    We're under a blizzard warning here in NYC.   :o

I've never experienced a Nor'easter, but that is about to change.

I'll be sure to get some pics.   ;D

We are due here and about to get it...  we are under the same blizzard warning as Pat.   

My parents went home a day early....  today is going to be a lazy day.

Man you are soooo lucky. Nothing beats a good nor'easter.  ;D
It can really pile up the snow, too bad I'm too far away to enjoy it.  :(
We'll be lucky to get a couple inches of snow.  >:(

MrsSTC and MIL have theater tickets for late this afternoon...    Fortunately, the subway stop is just 75' from the front door of this place.  2 right turns and down the stairs.

I'm glad we flew in yesterday...


Pens, I can box some up and mail it to you if you like!

Thanks but you don't got a box big enough.  ;D
Once it gets cranked up it can really drop a lot of snow very quickly. Just depends on the storm. It truly will feel like a white Christmas.
Be safe and stay warm.  :)

Ours was the same.  First in 17 years.  We are excited.  Went to the 11:00 pm Christmas Eve service and it had just started spitting snow.  By the time we got out at just past midnight - Everything was white - Perfect.  During the day Christmas, some melted, but about  an hour before the time to cook fajitas, while playing bowling on my daughter's new Wii it started again.  Great day, and so happy for my daughter - her first Christmas in her new house and she gets a White Christmas.  BTW - them thar Wii's are FUN!!!

Be safe and stay warm.  :)

I plan on it!   I've already staked out my 'mission control'..

Second day of N Alabama snow. I think we have about 4-5 inches. Not much for you northerners but this is the most we have had on Christmas plus it is unusual for 2 days in a row. We don't have much snow removal, just some trucks for sanding. So roads are kind of slick for people not used to driving in such conditions.  To top it off the wife informed me this morning that we have an emergency starting to arise. We are running low on alcoholic beverages. Two days of snow and we run into apocalyptic conditions. I think I read about this in Nostradamus --first the alcohol runs out, then what -- no meat to smoke?
I keep looking out the window for one of those St Bernard rescue dogs with the barrel of spirits under their chin, but so far none have showed up. So I guess I have to go out into the wilderness and get supplies. My daughter volunteered to go with me but I declined the help. I better go alone so there is no temptation to end up like the Donner party if I get stranded.
So off I go.
