Im upset because we are not gonna have a white christmas! Today it is supposed to be 53 degrees! I live in Iowa! This is so unlikely. It doesn't seem like christmas without the cold weather and the snow. Keep your fingers crossed........im dreaming of a white christmas.....

Dont feel bad WC, I am sure the only thing on Christmas I can expect weather wise is a suntan. It is gonna be 73 here today and the weather guys are saying upper 70's over the weekend. In fact one of our weathermen made what he thought was a funny last nite and said we have a 3-7% chance of a white Christmas this year. I am sitting in capris and a t-shirt at work today and am still warm.

What makes me mad is that I cant even wear my Christmas sweatshirts and sweaters! Besides burning up everyone would look at me like I was an idiot!

Here in Western Wisconsin, it is 41 on our way up to 46. I'm disappointed also. I want a white Christmas! I will dream double time for both of us to have one.

I need some sort of help! What is so crazy is just last Thursday I think our high was 36.

What's even crazier, is that if you do get snow down there, even a trace of snow, you have to practically shut the city down. Up here, a trace of snow and were like I can still find my golf ball.

Thanks to Bill Engvall for that idea.

Oh no lie and even worse, what we normally get is ice. And the stores sell out of bread, eggs and milk. I dont have a sudden craving for these 3 items when the weather turns wintery...I guess I am missing that gene!!

And yes we normally do all stay in except for all the good ol boys with their jacked up 4 wheel drives. What cracks me up is that they drive around looking for people to pull out of ditches and normally end up in the ditch themselves because they didnt get the memo that 4 wheel drive doesnt work on ICE!!

Believe it or not, we have quite a few of those yahoos up here also. What makes it worse, WE LIVE IN THIS STUFF and they still don't get it!!!! :???:

We are sister states!! I totally agree, the only difference is that when it gets too hot atleast you have a coast line!! :D

I live about 150 miles from the Alabama coastline and it isn't any cooler down there than it is a little north of it. 75 degrees today! YUCK!

I know, its been so warm here :-(

Its even more aggravating when the outlook keeps changing. One minute it shows snow, then rain, then sun, then this and that.

Guess we're just gonna have to wait and see, but i hope I have some white stuff in time, I love the snow. If not by Xmas, at least by New years. Next best thing. Right now it shows snow for xmas eve, so what could be better. But I know better than to believe it as I'm sure it will change 10 time between now and Xmas eve.
