Thought you all might find this interesting. I was flying from Kansas City to Toronto the other day. Looking out of the window, first thought I was seeing a strange strip of sunlight. As the plane got closer, realized it was a snowbelt that couldn't have been more then a 1/2 mile or so wide by looking at the fields it covered. Plane was heading north and east. Snowbelt was stripping to the east and south. Think it was around central/Northeastern Illinois. ------------- D17 Series 1 Allis B- 1939 Allis B- 1945 |

Interesting view from above... Was this a 'test run' for that area. ------------- Holding a grudge is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die |

I wonder if Shammers was practicing daytime precision snowbombing.  That guy is pretty wily. ------------- 1938 B, 79 Dynamark 11/36 6spd, 95 Weed-Eater 16hp, 2010 Bolens 14hp |

Funny. As I realized what I was looking at starting chuckling since it looked like a straight blast out of some kind of cannon with precision aiming! ------------- D17 Series 1 Allis B- 1939 Allis B- 1945 |

We live in a snowbelt 15 miles south of lake Erie. 120+ inches average snow fall per winter season. That is a very cool picture of the snow band! Thanks for posting it! Regards, Chris
