Here in Western Pennsylvania out winters are unpredictable. We had our snow, it melted but today on the weather the forecast is for more snow.

Johnstown, 70 miles from Pittsburgh, can have snow when Pittsburgh is clear. It's the hills that surround us, I guess.

Here by the Lake (the big, dirty, ugly one) in NE Ohio . . . I grew up here, so I'm used to this, but I got pretty scared this morning; the ice storm took out my electricity and I woke up to a dead house. Luckily it's not a leaky house, and it only got down to about 60F when the power finally came back on.

It's been unusual, though . . .
