I can still walk on the grass. I love winter, though.

Obviously snow is hit or miss to some. I think it's just a gorgeous part of nature, like lightning and rain.

this past week has been temps in the 20s at night and the 40s during the day, but extremely dry. by the time we're going to get some precipitation, it's supposed to be lows in the high 30s, so it'll just be really cold rain.

I would only see it as a gorgeous part of nature if it came and then washed away clean and complete. The reality is that it comes down and stays until spring - turning filthy black and ugly.

That's not gorgeous nature to me.

I find it all very depressing. I hate the winter.

We had about an inch in Greensboro, NC yesterday, totally unexpected. It was very pretty, took my dogs out for a walk through the woods near the house before work, and just enjoyed the views. Everything just looks so much more beautiful when it's covered with fresh snow. Of course, by lunchtime, it had all pretty much melted...

80 degrees here in the San Fernando Valley. Gee, I wish we would at least get a Fall season around here.

We have way more snow than that. We have been averaging 3 to 4 inches a day for the past week. I work outside, it sucks.

I'd switch with you in a heartbeat.

If family, finances, and employment would allow, I'd be
in a winterless region in a New Yawk minute.

I dream of it. It would really, really change my life.

[I get significantly affected in my damaged brain by the additional darkness of winter.]

I always feel bad for you guys, you get absolutely killed with snow every year.

Just a touch of snow up here in the in the Sierra Nevada's yet. Not enough precipation this year, and not quite enough preciptation. Its already late November and no snow up here is not a good sign.
