Seriously. Snow?

#1 Postby Kim_in_MN » Sat Oct 10, 2009 12:10 am

It has been lightly snowing here in NW MN off an on since about 6 p.m. and my yard has a light cover. It's too early; I'm not ready for it!

Anyone want to come over for a garage cleaning party tomorrow? I would like to be able to get my car in there! :wink:

That's why I live here in NJ. :cheesy:

Seriously, I remember in my senior year of high school back in October 1979 we did have snow - about 3 inches worth. I know we've had early snows here as well. It didn't necessarily mean an early, harsh winter though.

I want to enjoy my fall colors and rake my leaves. I'll put an order in for snow around the first week of December thank you. ;)

I haven't seen that yet - off to check the forecast but it sounds like it will be south of us ... I hope.

No real accumulation, thank goodness; it has all melted now anyway from the rain that came after :roll: Farmers are having a touch time of it this fall though; still alot of corn and beans in the fields that need to come out and the sugar beet season is completely messed up (that's all you hear in a rural community this time of year LOL).
