Same wintery mix of BS here as well. Indy (less than 90 miles away) got 12", I got some icy patches on the commute in.

I hate Ohio Valley Weather, I either need to move to Michigan, or SoCal......I'm tired of the "don't like the weather wait a few days, it'll change" mentality.

The pics don't really do justice, but you can kinda see by the side of my driveway and on the sidewalk how much snow fell down. I had some fun today in unplowed parking lots. If you look at the second picture, you will see the snow on the front of my truck. That's from going through some big drifts!!

Sure wish we had that kind of winter here this year!
Looks like fun. Thanks for the resized pictures!

We got hit pretty hard here in Central IL...dont have any pictures but its pretty bad in some spots. I had a revalation of sorts as I rocked myself out of a 5 foot tall drift, all 4 wheels spinnin...I really need a 2'' body lift and some 30x9.5 tires that dont suck.

Plenty of ice but still no snow worth mentioning here in Jersey.

Last weekend Mrs Barch and I spent a couple nights on Blue Knob mountain (near Altoona, PA) with some friends from college. I had forgotten just how much fun my CC is to drive in the snow. Add the steep winding mountain roads and... well, fun fun fun.

The morning after the storm- We got between 22 to 30 inches depending on location and drifts 4 to 5 feet. I drove to work just after taking the photos.

Was that enough to reach the top of your boots?

After seeing that, I'm ashamed to even mention our puny 4-8 inches

its been cold in northern michigan, but not much snow to speak of. january 12 was the last day that we were above freezing. yesterday we hit mid 20's and it felt GREAT!

we even had a week straight below zero.....but not much snow.
Mid michigan got a good blizzard and had 3 feet of snow dropped on it a couple weekends ago.

any body here from up state New York??? did you see those numbers. some places got over 12 feet of snow!

MI definately sucks this year if you ask me. I like Winter, but it sucks when you dont have much snow at all. It was in the 30's the last couple days and I've been wearing my T-shirt around and I see people driving with windows all the way down, hah.

We went from a low of 0º yesterday morning to a high of 46º today! How about that temperature change!
