Missed it by THAT much!

Chicago blizzard 2011

According to news reports, the Chicago area missed its first snow storm of the season Tuesday by around 100 miles. It was still cold and windy, but the precipitation stayed east of us with areas of Indiana receiving up to 10 inches of snow! I know it will not be too long before scenes like the above storm (from early 2011) will be the norm!

House with January snow

Snowy trees in January

This should be an interesting night

The Chicago area is under a winter storm warning for tonight and tomorrow. It was relatively warm today (mid-30s) and some of our snow on the ground was melting. However, rain began this afternoon and temperatures are dropping. The rain is just now beginning to change to snow and the area is suppose to receive between 2 and 7 inches of snow.

That's not the worst of it.

On Sunday the temps will drop even more and the wind will be howling. I heard the wind speed will be close to 50 miles per hour. The Bears play the Patriots at Soldier Field and so that game will be fun to watch. As the week begins, the high temperature will be in single digits.

Only five more months to May!

Sedona in the Snow

Here's another Flickr favorite -- this time from Flickr user Laura Travels.

Although I lived in Arizona for a couple of years, I never did make it up to Sedona in the wintertime. Wish I had!

First snow

Saturday morning

We had our first snowfall of the season early Friday morning and had blizzard-like conditions until early afternoon. I took this backyard photo very early Saturday morning with the sun just starting to appear.

It's always nice and peaceful early Saturday!
