NJ is supposed to get hit this wednesday, we've been fortunate this year not too much snow, I hope it stays that way. I remember snow being so much fun, but once you start driving, not so much.

Down south Jerz got killed over the weekend.....2 feet!
Nothing up north! :dunno:

 

[JacknCoke]

haha I live in Maine and we haven't seen a Storm that even rivals that this year...

The last Snow I saw was Aurora. Way better than that white stuff.

Show off:tongue:

 

[maildude]

And get ready for more. Ull is pissed off.

 

[Legzman]

looks like a lousy 4 - 6 inches of snow. Whats the problem? :dunno:

 

[titsrock]

I think you've got enough snow to create a snowman and give him an icicle dick! Your neighbors and maybe even Mrs Sky will like that :banana:

My school canceled classes this morning, w00t! This never happens. We're a city school and most of our students walk to school. As long as the sidewalks are taken care of, we're usually in session regardless of the weather. However, the forecast calls for nine inches today and the school corporation preemptively canceled. I seriously don't know what to do with myself right now. It's so unexpected, I feel like I should do something productive...

Damn right!
Oh, and sit outside, drinking beer and smoking. Even in the snow. That's a vital step.

[domshooter]

An update:

THE CITY OF BALTIMORE HAS IMPLEMENTED PHASE III OF THEIR SNOW PLAN... WHICH MEANS THAT ONLY EMERGENCY VEHICLES ARE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD.

WIND GUSTS OVER 40 MPH ARE OCCURRING THROUGHOUT THE AREA... COUPLED WITH FALLING HEAVY SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW... PRODUCING WHITE-OUT CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION WEST OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY. THESE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING BEFORE GRADUALLY SUBSIDING AFTER 8:00 PM.

WHILE ALL REGIONS IN THE AREA ARE EXPERIENCING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITIONS... BALTIMORE COUNTY... THE CITY OF BALTIMORE... AND ANNE ARUNDEL AND HARFORD COUNTIES IN MARYLAND ARE EXPERIENCING PARTICULARLY PERILOUS WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGH 3:00 PM.

PEOPLE ARE ENCOURAGED NOT TO PANIC... BUT TO SIMPLY STAY INSIDE... ENJOY YOUR FAVORITE INDOOR ACTIVITIES... AND RIDE THIS STORM OUT... THE HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS WILL BE IMPROVING LATER THIS EVENING.

IF YOU GET STRANDED IN YOUR VEHICLE... DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CAR TO TRY TO WALK FOR ASSISTANCE... YOU CAN QUICKLY BECOME DISORIENTED IN WIND DRIVEN SNOW AND COLD. THIS STORM WILL SUBSIDE EARLY THIS EVENING... SO WAIT IN YOUR CAR FOR EMERGENCY HELP TO ARRIVE.

PERIODICALLY RUN YOUR ENGINE FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES EACH HOUR FOR HEAT. ENSURE YOUR EXHAUST PIPE IS CLEARED OF SNOW AND ICE. CRACK YOUR WINDOWS TO AVOID CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. TIE A COLORED CLOTH TO YOUR CARS ANTENNA OR WINDOW TO BE VISIBLE TO RESCUERS. FROM TIME-TO-TIME... MOVE YOUR ARMS... LEGS... FINGERS... AND TOES TO KEEP BLOOD CIRCULATING.

I just got back from taking my oldest to the outdoor pool. Too chilly for me to swim, but he was fine. I think the water was 80 and the outside air was 60. Sorry, Sky, had to type it.

 

[PlumpRump]

I feel all of your pain. The weather has been crazy all over the US! I live in San Diego, and today it was in the low 60's with light patches of clouds! Oh, the horror!

*Sorry for seeming unsympathetic, seriously though, anything below 70F is too cold for me. I can only imagine the nonsense the rest of the country is having to put up with right now!

 

[PlasmaTwa2]

Right now in Canada it is -15.

We call that t-shirt season. :thumbsup:

 

[PlumpRump]

Damn right!

What about curling? Is that not as popular a hobby in Canada as I imagine and dream that it is?
