    Some snow forecast (not enough to measure) for Lexington, Mass on Thursday and Saturday nights. This is what dramatists call foreshadowing.

    Alas, I can't find any video, so I grabbed a few pics of that 84 game.

    About 5 inches downtown. Last year, first snow didn't hit until nearly Thanksgiving and we only ended up with about 23 inches all season (normal is about 60). Too short for fall this year, unfortunately, but looks like shorts will be fine by the weekend.

    Love, Love, LOVE Steamboat. (Helps that my sister has a condo up there.) And lots of snow up there already. They got 500 inches-plus last season. Just got the notice that one of the good golf courses is closed for the season.

    Another storm coming in middle of next week. So, in the span of a week, he had a record high of 80, 7 inches of snow, then today, back into the 60s with wind and leaves going everywhere. And virtually no snow left on the ground.

    Embarking on my first Florida winter after several years Up North. My line is that I miss the first snowfall of the season, but not the second, third, fourth, fifth...

    The fact that Tim Tebow was destined to be born warmed Rich Karlis' foot

    3-4 inches ... in central Pennsylvania ... on Oct. 29. That pissed me off.

    It also turned central Pennsylvania drivers into absolute idiots.

    Blizzard warnings going up out here. Could get 5-10 inches. Trees still teetering from last week's storm probably won't make it in this one because we're getting heavy snow and lots more wind. Wheeeeeee.

    Good luck with the trees, MileHigh. My neighborhood is still without power (and estimates of return from local utility NStar are getting ominiously and increasingly vague) from Saturday night's storm and general tree destruction. Oaks may be mighty, but they're mighty brittle, too.

    Thanks, M_G. Hopefully, this one doesn't pile on the Northeast this weekend.
