My sister has over six inches of snow outside of Asheville, NC so this storm is packing a punch.

7:23 am

mael

just rain for us here in MA tomorrow, what a let down

7:26 am

BzznBea

We are getting a light snowfall at the moment. It may get heavier as the day goes on.

7:26 am

MollyL

You are welcome to all the snow we are supposed to get. May the wind blow it in your direction. Meanwhile, it's 12 freaking degrees

7:28 am

mael

it's 7 here, but supposed to quickly turn around when the storm comes

7:28 am

mael

a winter with no snow is such a bummer

7:28 am

BzznBea

21 here

7:30 am

bichon

7:42 am

To me, winter without snow is a blessing.

7:49 am

saanichcat

sure appreciate your icon Molly! spot-on.

7:50 am

jwr

we had a tsunami alert for a few hours. The only difference between that and your East Coast weather would be that you were getting housebound and we were getting run outside!

7:51 am

jwr

correction: our weather Reports

8:04 am

MollyL

Saan, there is absolutely nothing redeeming about winter. Cold, dark, messed up roads, canceled plans. Blech.

8:16 am

Jeff7

what's up with Lickety?

8:17 am

dan2bit

some big storm knocked out his setup, I heard

8:18 am

dan2bit

most of it was safely in the cloud, but he did have to push some button each day "by hand"

8:24 am

Jeff7

ty-I can never finish without

8:25 am

BzznBea

Molly has a list in her profile.

8:25 am

Jeff7

I know but it's not the same :(

8:34 am

dan2bit

finished! thanks Molly and Gillie and all cluers

8:39 am

MollyL

Lickety's system is all automated. Even the "Clues are up" post is automated. Which is why it always makes me laugh when people post "Thanks Lickety". But if the machine that generates it got fried, there is nothing driving it. I imagine it will take time and money to replace what he lost.

8:46 am

Freeman

How many points for the 6, please?

8:48 am

Christa

LOL MollyL / Yes I am one who thanks Lickety for the "Clues are up". Good to know going forward.
