It's snowing pretty well here. Took a quick snap out of my window. Some guy got stuck picking someone up at work because he thought he could drive through a big drift. It didn't quite work. Got off early today due to the weather (and still get paid, yay!). Here's the snap.

We are under a winter storm warning with snow and all of its variants predicted. Just hope I can get out in it. Al finals are done as of a few moments ago, so; let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

You guys can keep your snow. We have already had more than I like. Give me a warm beach any day.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

Still waiting on the snow. We had very light flurries one day, but that was it. Horrible teaser. It got to 70 degrees earlier in the week.

I, too, would prefer a warm beach. However, if it is going to be cold, then it should snow. At least then one has something to do and something to look at.

I couldnt agree more. There is nothing more depressing that a temperature of -10F and nothing but dead trees and concrete around to look at. Not to mention a sunset of like 2:30 in the afternoon!

One Better: In my little town of backroads, we had a forecast of snow a couple of years back. Before the first flake fell, school was canceled. It never ended up snowing.
