Could be a lot sooner than you think.....we're getting some snow on Monday. :laugh:

A few years ago we got a big snowstorm in December and once the snow hit the water it turned into slush....which then froze pretty quickly. A few days later we had about 5 to 6 inches of ice. ;D

i realy hope that doesnt happen snow ice is not that safe and very soft i hope we get the snow it melts when it hits the water but not the land that will keep the temps low and make so black ice!!!

I wish it was sooner but I get the feeling we will not be that lucky.
