I'll trade you one snow storm for several tornados and baseball size hail. That's the forecast for here tomorrow. Supposed to be really bad.

Sorry to hear that, DejaVu. Don't need that, for sure. With this snow storm will come moisture.
One of my favorite things....melting snow....means the storm is over and the sun is out warming
things up.

Stay safe.

Its hard to tell, but I would guess that we got a solid foot of snow here the first go round and then it calmed down and then the snow started again last evening and we got at least another 3 or so inches over night. It is leaving fast though, water is running everywhere and hard. It has been a long time since we had a melt like this with water moving like it is. Should really fill up some water holes. Our corrals are really ugly and we are AI'ing heifers in it. Lots of slop, but that means lots of grass too!!!
