Assuming you live here, that would mean that global warming was true. In which case you can look forward to living much closer to the shore in a few years and start growing pineapples and coconuts.

Ah okay. Lots of times when I would head from my apartment back to their house, there would be no snow in Oakland, Southside, or along the river to Hays. Once you traveled up Mifflin Road into West Mifflin, there was an inch or two from there on. And its common knowledge the northern suburbs get more than the southern haha.

Although I'm being pessimistic, I truly hope we get the 4 to 6 inches they say were going to get. Just after living here my entire life, I know the probability of that is quite unlikely.

In Erie we have no snow so far, but they keep telling us it is coming.

Western suburbs here, we got a light dusting. I'll be happy if it doesn't melt. That would qualify it as a white Christmas, right? ...Right?

Yep, although it isn't sticking to the roads or other warm surfaces.

In the south hills, my road is covered along with everything else. I'd say we have 1.5"
