Hey Everybody,

I'm curious if you're in a part of the world where it's snowing, would you want to look at photos on JoeDios that are warm and sunny, or that match your cold winter environment?

Well here in Va it's pretty nice. Been warm and rather great the past couple days. But way back from December-January it was horrid. Quite the amount of snow.

So I'm happy at the moment for this weather!

Hell yeah... I myself personally hate winter... just last week here in Finland was
minus 25 celsius (thats minus 13 farenheits). So yeah, some warm looking pictures would be nice...

Winter sucks, its cold and dark and awfull...summer on the otherhand... now thats something else entirely... well not hot but just nice and warm (like Miami in january) but I like the fact that sun goes down about midnight....

Living in northern Florida, we get nice hot weather in the summer, but in winter it can get as low as 12 degrees f. Now, I'm not fond of cold weather, and I hate snow even more. But I find myself wishing for it, now that I have a small arctic team for both sides. I'm kind of anxious to due some "winter" dios.

Getting enough snow here to knock the power out last night and all the shots I'm doing lately take place on Tatooine. :rolleyes:

I'm in Knoxville, TN and we sit in a valley, so weather here is almost as crazy as it was when I lived in Florida... we ended last week with a little snow and temps in the 20's, then reached 68 for the weekend, and now its dropping to the 30s... it barely snows but the temp could support it easily. I enjoy snow pics... I envy them.

^ word.

At 3pm yesterday it was 65 degrees and when I walked out of the office at 6 it was 29. I didn't even bring a coat! 31 today and supposed to be 68 on Sunday! Craziness! I can't stay healthy!

[size=4]Here in Green Bay, we dodged the main storm by 20-30 miles. About 3 inches here, but blistering winds. Just south and east of us, over a foot and drifting, blizzard conditions further south in WI it's much worse.[/size]

[size=4]I like snow shots, but not at the expense of damaged cameras or frost-bitten fingertips...plastic is also fragile at extreme temps...[/size]

Actually that is nothing!
Rest of Tonight
Mostly clear. Bitterly cold. Lows 12 to 16 below. Lowest wind chill readings 20 below to 30 below zero after midnight. West winds around 10 mph until early morning becoming light and variable during the predawn hours.

Where at in N. FL pinpoint?

I'm northeast Florida myself, so i'm dying with anticipation to close on the house my wife and I are buying so I can finally get some outdoor shots taken.

As a florida native i've never really seen a reason to collect the winter troops, which sucks because I like their design, I just suck at making fake environments.

I got less then 3 inches of snow and the wind chill down to -10 or so. It is the coldest it has been in this part of Texas for years for 3 days straight. You would think the world is ending here. Supermarket crashing and cars lined up into the street for gas the day before and everything shutting down the next day. It's hilarious to watch people over react to relatively minor weather. I shudder to think what happens when the actual Ice Age comes.
