This winter is getting off to a BAD start. Maybe that means that it will end sooner???

Just when you your winter storm has passed - you are reminded that you live in a "snowbelt". This wouldn't be so bad - we are thankful our Montana is not experiencing this weather and we were enjoying the pool in this hot weather here just south of Disney World today - except that all 5 of our grandkids, 3 of our kids (one pregnant), my two sisters and their husbands, and my 80 yr old Dad ALL live within a 15 mile radius and right square in the middle of this.

Cheryl made me stop telling her about these storm warnings as she is very concerned about our kids, grandkids and family. This is the 4th Winter Storm Warning for them now in less than a week.

I believe that snow on your toppers would be a moot point with 40-50 mph winds...

The Winter Storm Warning is now in effect until 6 PM EST Monday.

Snow will exit east of the area shortly after midnight. Cold air
will then blast into the area behind this system...activating the
lakes for another round of accumulating lake effect snow beginning
late tonight. 4 to 7 inches of new snow is expected through Monday
afternoon.

In addition...winds will increase out of the northwest and gust to
as high as 40 to 50 mph...resulting in significant blowing and
drifting of snow and low visibility.

A Winter Storm Warning means severe winter weather is expected or
occurring. Travel will remain hazardous this morning.
