Well Im not so sure the squall line was responsible for the overturned semis, I think that was just because of the powerful pressure gradient...but who knows. Anyway, I agree i love the way it looks after a major snowstorm. Back in december we got a really nice one near the end of the month of pure wet snow, I love the wet snow events, because it sticks to everything, all the trees and stuff and it looks amazingly beautiful. We have wooded area near our house and after wet snows it always looks like a crystal forest, i love it. I remember the last major snowstorm we had, march of 99, we got 15-16 inches and it was beautiful...

it was from the squall line actually (or perhaps a tornado as they saw arcing from powerlines) - saw them right as they came through the line of storms.
