Well folks.....I was ready to "Throw in the Towel" last week, with record temps some 20-30° above average BUT........it appears I'm going to miss my guess by "ONE STINKIN' DAY :eek: !" YESH........I have SNOW in the forecast for the night of the 31st :eek: 8-) Pretty darn close huh?? :wink: "I'm Dreamin' of White Halloween, just like the ones I use to know!"........every since I was a kid, it has "ALWAYS" either snowed or rained on Halloween, this will make 39 Halloweens in a ROW :eek:

OtherHD - you only win if it never snows where you live. Do you mean NEVER as in "never this upcoming winter" or as in "never in your lifetime"? :wink:

Dennis - I checked back through the thread and noticed that I chose Dec. 1. But I don't see my name on the latest list. :?:

OK, OtherHD, but it could be a verrrrry long time until you are awarded a victory - if you are saying it will never snow in your lifetime. :wink:

AZ, my guess wasn't Oct 30? It was November 6. Even though I am officially probably out of it, cause of no cold air shot for 14 days...
