Glad I don't live way up there. 2 feet of snow.

Looked miserable on the news.

 

amarillo, Tx has had some bad winds that will blow your socks off. Thankfully, moving on Thurs. sick to death of trying to pump gas in the 60 mph winds.

 

I was afraid my Toyota would blow away ! ROFL

Re: Yikes ! Bad storm in Minn.

Yikes...2 ft of snow. Been there done that, many times!!  So grateful it's been mild this winter in CT. Though I've said that so much lately....we're sure to get hit with something, as I speak too soon! But...at least winter is almost over!

So many other parts of the country have had terrible storms, and an unusually stormy/cold winter. I feel for them!

We had 74mph wind gust at the Albuquerque airport today while also having a dust storm that obliterated the mountains and all the while it was raining and snowing.  Temperature dropped 20° in 30 minutes.

 

Downed trees and limbs all over the city blocking streets.

@Kachina624 What a mess but the moisure was welcome as you've been pretty dry there?  My friends in Buckeye AZ talked about their heavy winds today, other friends in CA are expecting snow ! in the Bay Area.  

 

It's quiet as a mouse here in Denver, we had snow forecasted, so far just a couple inches.  Big temp range though, 60 yesterday and 10 today.

@rockygems123   There's another of these storms expected the first of next week.  Probably the one California is expecting.

The weather really has been strange. Yesterday we had rain, a bit of snow and sleet. Today it's to be in the low 60's In Mercer County N.J., they had an EF2 tornado on  Tues, I think it was.
