A few things about the snow and opening day of baseball season:

- When was the last time it snowed on opening day? On the night of the home opener? This seems rare.

- Aren't traffic jams on the way to the game just lovely? I'm looking forward to seeing 45,000 at a game again, but I'm hoping they aren't all getting there when I do -- at 5:50 p.m. for the 6:05 p.m. game.

- Won't it be wonderful when we have an open-air stadium? 

- Maybe global warming will take care of these problems for us by 2010, when the Twins' new stadium opens up.

"Nothin' like drivin' to a Christmas party in 5 inches of snow," says I ... while videotaping. Would I get worker's comp if I crashed?

It’s still snowing this morning. I’d love to be out enjoying it – especially with the new cross country skis I got for Christmas – but I have to be behind the computer today.

At least it was a white Christmas!

It is beautiful outside right now. I love snow. As long as it has to be cold during the winter, there better be some snow on the ground.

It's a bad sign when the city starts hiring snowplow drivers.

That means winter is coming.

Good night! Look at the sky. It's snowing in April. You have got to be kidding me!

Crazy Minnesota.

While the snowfall in Jordan closed schools and caused problems with sports schedules, it was a beautiful sight to see Thursday morning.

This morning, I have been scouring YouTube looking for a video of Jordan from the past weekend.
