Snowmageddon 2011

And we have thundersnow! Okay, it was just one bolt of lightning and one crack of thunder, but it was still pretty cool.

I have west facing windows, and the wind gusts have been strong enough to shake my curtains. I live in a brick and poured concrete building. The wind has also embedded so much snow in my screen door that I can't see out of it at all. It's just one solid sheet of white.

Gotta love Midwest weather. We got off easy here, compared to what you're getting. Lots of wind, though. Hope you don't lose power!

We've been having thundersnow for a bit so far! Lots of lightening, not much thunder though!

We were a bit like you: 1 bolt of lightning, a crack of thunder, and that was it for the thundersnow. We've got a 2 1/2 foot drift up on the back deck, though. The spouse and kid are home today, and, as for me, that's the only problem with my telework agreement. I don't get snow days.

I would LOVE to see thundersnow. we had some predicted by it either never came or I slept through it. yeah, we've had snow like that into the window screens. right now it's just ice ice ICE outside.
