There was some snow in Louisiana the other day, but none in my neck of the woods though the sky did look promising for awhile.. I still can't believe that its 30 degrees outside and its March! I should be unpacking my tank tops, not scraping ice off my windshield.

Here in central Ohio we're getting about 2 feet. It's the most we've seen in a LONG time. Roads were closed, only emergency vehicles, that whole shebang. Good times. I went sledding for the first time in about 5 years.

The storm that's dumping on the East right now is the same one that brought us an inch Friday morning. Posts: 1813 | Registered: Apr 2001

That explains the pairs of animals I kept seeing outside.
It's weird. At first, it was good to have rain because of the novelty that it wasn't snow. Then comes the realization that the water melts the snow, and then you remember that snow is, you know, water. It's stopped raining here, but now there's some nice howling winds going on. Enough where we've already had one dropout in power.
Also, holy crap, Blayne, four FEET of snow? Good lord. Posts: 14745 | Registered: Dec 1999

lol, I guess it's all about where you live. We had a little heat wave a week ago and it broke into the high 30's. I remember walking outside and thinking "wow, Spring is here already?" And of course the next day we'd gotten six inches of snow and it was back in the teens. We've gotten more snow so far this year than I think in the last couple decades up to this point (Winter ain't over yet!). I'm just sick of all the ice on the roads, and I'm ready for it to be Spring. And I'm incredibly glad we missed all that crap Ohio just got socked with.
And curse you Blayne, no one is supposed to be able to call ME a southerner!

Technically I am supposed to call you a 'Damn Yankee', but also on the other hand, you are south of my.

Heh. We had a day of 75 degrees, last weekend. For northern Kansas in late February/early March, that's near record territory. Of course, the next day, it tried to snow. Typical Kansas, where mother nature loves to yell, 'PSYCH!!' Posts: 1813 | Registered: Apr 2001

Oh man, 75 sounds heavenly. Ohio got into the mid-forty's before this crazy snow storm hit and I was even happy with that. I'm just sick of all the snow. It's fine around Thanksgiving and Christmas but after that I just get tired of it. Two years ago it snowed on October 12 or 13. That's just TOO EARLY!
The only solution is to move somewhere warm after college.
We have about two feet plus in our yard, one of my dogs looks like he's swimming in the snow because it's up over his head. It's pretty funny actually.

Here you all go again with your delusions and dreams about this stuff they call "snow"... Come on, who are you fooling? That stuff's a myth!

We have a pug in vermont, it has to tunnel when it's outside.

I would also like to add that one of the advertisement banners is for some TV show on Discovery Channel. The man has a spider in his mouth. And it scares me. Because I'm horrified of spiders.

Yeah Xann., thats what my dog does unless he's trying to hop over the snow which it then looks like he's trying to swim or something.
And I'm scared of spiders. But snakes are what really get to me Steve. If my feet are on the ground and someone mentions that word i cringe and have to pull my feet up because I can imagine them slithering all over me.

No, no, it's true, I can testify--I even saw a few flakes of it here in Georgia yesterday morning!
Sunny and blue skies today, though.

Where are you, if you don't mind my asking? I'm south of Dayton. We got about a foot and a half, but the OSU Columbus campus got a lot more(my sister is there).

I'm just about an hour north of Columbus. Mount Vernon, if that means anything to you. A bunch of my friends here grew up in Dayton.

Over here in BC we have partly sunny skies, daffodils and crocuses, and nice sweater & jeans strolling weather.

I spent a week in New York and didn't see any snow at all. Yet our flight back to Georgia yesterday was delayed because of snow in Atlanta.
Then we had weather issues in New York and I got to spend over 10 hours in airports. Our luggage arrived in Atlanta 3 hours after we did.
Now I'm just venting .

Yeah, I know where Mount Vernon is. I didn't know there were any active Ohio 'rackers except myself and Noemon. Nice to meet you!
