ok seriously.. the snow's got to stop

Number27 · #1 01-03-2010, 04:40 AM

this is like the 235435th time that it's snowed over saturday night (going back to last year) into sunday morning. naturally being the day of rest (puhleeze that is as antiquated a sentiment as no sex before marriage) the plows don't do **** until like 9am, 'cept the highways... yea great the highway's nice and clear.. and exactly how am i supposed to get to the freakin highway?!? idiots. i get off work at 7am... so of course i'm ****in stuck here until the stupid plows clear the rest of the roads.. aaaand my relief shift can't get in either so i'm stuck working till probably 10

. i ****ing hate sunowday!

oh and really... i've never seen it snow at night so many times .. ever! last year it snowed every single weekend night from mid december to february, and it looks like the trend will continue

these night time snow storms are the exact type i always wanted when i was a kid in school, cuz you knew it would mean that school would be cancelled. i could count the number of snow days i had on my hands. they probably had 20 last year....

Hi.

You getting it totally wrong guys, the climate is shifting towards warmer, not colder.

We have had the temperatures in the -15 to -25 range for about month now, about 10 degrees colder than the average, and if the temperature happens to rise, it's at least 10cm more snow, sometimes 20cm.

The planet is getting warmer for sure...

Sam

Hi refbassist.

Yep, about 60 km north of You.

The temperature rose to -10 about noon and it started to snow, like You probably noticed...

God I hate winter. And snow. And cold.

We got 25"+ over two days. I ran my snow bower 3 days in a row. After that, it dropped to 30 below zero. Suck it up.

Yep, I got a good friend who has a farm in S Dakota. The snow is to high for the Cows to eat. They have 12 FOOT high snow drifts. Don't worry it will all melt when the oceans rise.

I'm not complaining yet.

We've really only had one major snow storm and all that snow has disappeared from rain and fog. The snow we're getting now is the light fluffy stuff.

I don't like the cold, though. It's 13.7ºF (-10.2ºC) and windy. I'll finish my coffee, layer up, grab the shovel and go to town on the snow. My house, then my mothers.

It's shorts and t-shirt weather here in San Diego.

distortedbass93 · #11 01-03-2010, 10:48 AM

Hasn't snowed here yet.

blendermassacre · #12 01-03-2010, 10:55 AM

My only gripe is that here in kc, after our 8 to 10 inches of snow, the plows only hit the side streets once, in the middle of it. Now that its snowed a couple more inches and been 4 degrees at night, that leaves 4" thick sheets of ice on a bunch of the side streets. Oh man I love my tax dollars at work

We had a tiny one on Thursday. I didn't feel it, but one of the receptionists alerted me to it.

True that, I had to go down to the mall and pick up some long pants. I now have a second pair of jeans to wear for when it becomes unseasonably cold.
