NE OK/ NW AR/ SE KS/ SW MO Winter 2011 Part 2

Yep...ice rare here versus there. Biggest storm in my 10 years hear was December 26-27 2010, which was the 29 inches. And it came down in a few hours overnight. Unreal. I think that one plus 2 storms from last winter are in top 5 or 6 all time here now.

Northern jersey? My sister is in south jersey and they had a really crazy insane winter last year!!! They were getting storm after storm it was nuts. Even this year she has gotten a lot, as compared to the last 5 or 6 years which was a snow drought back that way.

Monmouth County, Central NJ...snow capital of the world. This year anyway. Last and this winter huge. Getting old. No place to put the snow.

Few more pics as the storm is winding down now. Some of these are dark and made darker to see the snow contrast better. I should have stuck something in the yard to give ideas.

Standing in the area I shoveled for the dog. Nice drift under the window which is almost 4 feet off the ground!

NwWhiteOut, I can't see anything but "posted image" when you post pics, which is quite a shame, because I bet they're amazing.

awww man they should work :( most everyone here could see them idk....my friend in iowa couldnt see that but he was at work and his firewall was blocking the site from loading my images....you running a firewall? might have to add the links to the safe list...i could add a direct links to them all and let you try that? they arent the best images i can do better but was in a rush cause of the wind chills out there its brutal

I could only see them by right clicking and opening the image in a new window. Maybe the host doesn't allow linking them.
