Eastern North America....Members

How is everyone doing?
Did the big snow and storms get you?
Are you digging out and staying warm?

Here in the Mid-West we got about 2.5 inches and extreme cold (for us) and they damn near shut down the Universe!
It is 10:30 a.m. and about 16? with predictions of this holding for several more days.
No way I can work in the shop/garage!

Hey GB.  We got a dusting of snow our way.  I posted photo's on FB.  However the cold is whats going to hurt now.  Wind chills still hangin at zero here.
I heard all the state received some kind of snow, well except for Florida.  Imagine than.  LOL

Just one of the many reasons we love Florida!  Hope everyone is ok.

Hey Bill...
I have been in Florida when the temp dropped into the upper 40's and the folks down there were in a state of absolute panic!
I was running around in a light windbreaker and the 'natives' were in parkas and mackinaws!

But that was back in the days when there were no such things as 'dual purpose heating/cooling units' in the hotels and 'auto courts'!!!

But you all are too young to remember those days back in the late 40's and 50's....

Heard on the radio today, that Florida is the only state at this moment, that does not have any snow.  Even the big Island of Hawaii had snow flurries.  We got a few inches in Central Ohio.

The lack of snow in Florida, have made us the only state without flakes on the ground in the U.S.Even Hawaii has snow covering its mountaintops, with about 7 inches of snow atop Mauna Kea, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. It has been in the low 50's all day.  :)

I'm in Maine and it's been snowing ALL day and very windy. So far there's about 18- 20" on my deck. Still have power but the lights keep flickering. I got a couple shop projects finished today so I'm happy.. Not looking foreward to shoveling tomorrow though lol

My Sister lives in Hawaii and every time I have to got out and shovel snow in below freezing temperatures she makes it a point to mention she was at the beach. Not this time  ;D

Hope all you guys are keeping warm. For now the snow and ice has left here, it's raining, but that's not to bad.

No problems here on midcoast Maine!  Got approximately 10" of snow.  It was wet and heavy, so there are some tree branches to clean up, but the power never went out.  Hope others in the area faired as well!
