Cool Snow!

They are expecting snow for us by the end of the week.

40% chance on Friday night & then again on Sunday night lingering into Monday a.m.

This just blows........

Snow....HEY! I REMEMBER THAT STUFF!!!! But then I moved to Oklahoma and only have to worry about ice !

Ahh..The good old days of living in South Dakota when you had to get your Halloween costume big enough to fit over your parka! All the ballerinas looked a little silly with hoods!

I still remember digging cars out of our driveway after Thanksgiving dinner!

Good luck with the snow...hope you don't get any yet!

Tim

I would like to see about 3 to 5 foot of snow starting in late oct and going thru to early april. I loved the snow we had in 97 when it snowed over 24" in less than a day. I bought 2 polaris 500 H.O and one has a snow blade for it. Why have a four wheel drive if you can't have something to play in. Plus with 2 big dogs it's easier to find where they took a dump than it is in deep grass since I don't mow the back yard for 2 weeks. This way I can scoop with a shovel and throw with out watching where I step.

I grew up in Buffalo. I've had enough snow to last everyone on FTE the rest of their lives.

Now I live in sunny CA. It was 90 today. Man, that was tough.

Talked to my brother yesterday in New Mexico. Said they were getting lots of snow. Rained all morning and then turned to the white stuff so must be that real heavy stuff.

SNOW? whats that? if you add up all the snow that i have seen in my life it would maybe be about 1.5 ft. snow is fun when ever we get it. but its pretty funny that back when i was in school they would shut it down if the weather man said that there was a good chance of snow and the schools up north would go if there was a lot of snow on the ground.

i love the south

Let it snow! I'm headed to the ski swaps in SLC this month to pick out new boards. Getting used ones so I don't take the 40% depreciation right off the showroom floor (kinda like buying a pickup, eh?).

No snow here! That is just the way I like it too. Every 5 years or so we will get some snow and that is enough for me.
