Wow, that's bad. My sister married a brother in Northern GA and they live in Cartersville. Havn't talked with her in a few days, wonder if they are having problems.

[bookworm]

We are about 45 to 50 miles East of Cartersville. So, they are probably having the same kind of fun we are! I haven't heard of any major power outages or anything, for which we are very grateful. That is always the fear when we have an ice storm. This time the trees and power lines did not get coated with ice, just the roads. It thaws slightly during the day and then refreezes at night so it is keeping a layer of ice over them. It's not supposed to really warm up until Friday.

We got a few inches today, but nothing all that bad.

It always seems strange when I read about the southern states getting hammered with snow.

We got a few inches of snow, but, of course this is Central NY lol. Schools in our district on 2 hr delay. It sure is pretty out there!

[sianrose]

we haven't had any snow for a week or so now...the forecast is rain...I liked the snow... because we do not have it that often...and I had food in the cupboard and heat...it is very beautiful to look at...but I feel so sorry for homeless people and stray animals...

Yep we're snowed in as well. Which is a little frustrating actually. We were supposed to have our CO visit this week, but our Tuesday meeting was canceled and from what it looks like Thursdays will be canceled too. Hopefully it clears up soon!

This is the house next door to us on Monday morning. We continued to get snow for the rest of that morning, then it turned to freezing rain. We got 6 or 7 inches, plus a layer of ice. According to the weather channel, it is not supposed to get above freezing until the weekend.

[lovestruth]

please don't hate me but it is supposed to get up into the low 70's here in the next few days. i can only send you warm greetings from california!

(i think the picture is lovely, wanda!!!)

We do not have any snow.I am hoping I will see some snow here in US!I am from England and Czech Republic and I use to have snow!;)

Come on down to Georgia, you'll see some!

I was born in La Grande, OR, lived there until I was 10 or so. We moved from there to MI, then to TN. That was many years ago, and I'm not dealing with the cold as well as I did back then. Sure not used to it after twenty years in GA. All our meetings are canceled, and service. So I really appreciate having you all to talk to. The family is here, and so far we are doing fine, we have our Family Worship evening today, which will be nice. But, a tiny bit of cabin fever has begun to set in. There are 3 children, 14, 11 and 8, their mom, who is our daughter, my husband and our youngest son. We also have two dogs, Mango and Peaches, a cat, Mr. Bill, two tarantulas, Hairy-it and Count Fangula, several fish, a frog, who just had a name change and I can't remember it, and a ball python named (of course) Monty. So, there is no boredom here!

Here it was pretty cold at the end of dezember and first days of january, but since the weekend it's getting warmer everyday, we had 7° Celsius this morning (I think 45° F), many people are suffering from headaches because of the sudden change in the weather (from - 10°C to + 7°)

Beautiful house and snow scene. Are you near Blue Ridge? We rented a cabin there in September. Was amazing!

Well this is on Bornholm, (Denmark) where I live. We have sofar had 3 thursday evenings that had to be canceled as the police advised that all people should stay at home, as it was to dangerous to go out. Ofcourse we obey. We had 150 cm of snow here in December 2010. We've never seen so much snow here in such a short time. Our island was closed off, and some people had been stuck in their houses from 23 to 30 december. The storms are the worst, where the snow gets replaced all the time, as that closed the roads off, immidiately after the trucks had cleaned it. Well, the snow that I moved to the back of our garden, was a pile of app. 175cm. It now still is a pile of 135cm.

It really is beautiful there, especially in the fall. The colors are incredible. We are about 65 miles South of Blue Ridge. A few years ago we stayed in Ellijay, which is just a few miles South of Blue Ridge.

Thanks so much for asking! We finally warmed up enough to get rid of all the ice, kids are back in school and we're back to work. Was especially nice to be back in the Kingdome Hall...><

Please keep sending them! The weather man is talking about more ice for Friday. Hopefully nothing like what we had! We are just not equipped to deal with it. Still, I can't complain, our brothers and sisters in Austrailia and Brazil and other places have it so much worse.
