1. Not much here...
I'm in Delaware and usually I still have my windows cracked. You can see I didn't prepare, I still have summer stuff out. I'll be taking care of that this week. :hi:

3. Thanks -- is it still coming down?
I was just looking at a slide show on the NYT site, and it seems (to my eye, anyway) that PA has the most thus far. Not a WHOLE lot yet, but I'm just :wow: that it's snowing so early, although several DUers have said it's not all that unusual. Dreaming of a White Halloween would just never occur to me.

The weather has been SO extreme this year, unrelenting. I live in the Pacific NW and we were literally unscathed by the problems that plagued the rest of the country.

Hang in there! And get that stuff put away! :7

5. It's still coming down a little...
we've had ice today too. Earlier, it was "pouring" pea sized ice. Very strange.

We had hellacious heat a lot this summer too.

LOL!...I'm going to get around to putting the stuff away. I'm used to still sitting outside at this time of year. It's nice to sit and read while the dogs run around. Oh well..

4. That is pretty early, isn't it?
I think the occupiers need a STRATEGY to get them through the winter.

6. You know you're from Wisconsin when....
... you buy your kid's Halloween costume big enough to fit over a snowsuit.

11. Wow. I just have to say again I never knew ANYBODY got

12. When folks ask "what do you do in Wisconsin in the summer?", we reply....
... "well, if it comes on a weekend, we have a picnic".

8. Snow is beginning to fall in central New Hampshire
Just a few flakes so far but they are predicting 6 to 10 inches overnight.

No pics, sorry... Maybe I can get some in the A.M.

10. I love the snow on the pumpkins! And the snow on the bright
red leaves of the tree -- kind of surreal. Already a tree limb has crushed someone's car. :(

Thanks for the pics -- hope it doesn't get TOO bad! :hi:
