Lucky you if that comes to pass. I hope you got enough food and spirits in the house if it is worse than expected though. I'd love to have a snow day.

So hilarious when you southern boys get like 6" and the world stops.  In Minnesota a foot is just getting warmed up.  Two feet and your coworkers might not laugh if you're 15 mins late.  LOL   I think the last time snow kept us home was 1991 when we had like 42" in one weekend. 

Good luck ya winter woosiesWink

I know. I lived in Florida two years, and when there was a minute layer of ice you could barely get anywhere in under half an hour. Different from where I live, where we could be absent from snow for a whole winter and get five feet of snow over Spring Break.

I'm from Florida.. I was up in Atlanta this weekend and it started snowing today... I left.  LOL

My first experience with snow I honestly felt you could brush it off like in the movies, little did I know it soaks you to the bone.  (though common sense should tell you this, just funny how you can misconceive things)

Well there's different types of snow. If it's far below zero then yes you can just brush it off, but it's different if it's wet.

True. I lived in Finland like Zilly, and when it snows below zero, the snow feels dry, almost like powdered sugar. Here, though, it's a different matter.... However, what I really hate is not the snow, but the ice that comes afterwards, and makes it impossible to walk if you don't have crampons under your shoes.

I get similar stories from my buddy Peter (he started this thread) & it always makes me embarrassed that here in the UK if we get more than 2/3 inches of snow, the met office issues a severe weather warning, schools close, offices close, the entire road system grinds to a halt & millions of man-hours are lost from the economy as nobody bothers even trying to go to work.

Still - it does mean I can go to the pub in the afternoon

Here's a couple pictures I snapped today of my front and back yard, respectively.
 
 
 
 
Keep in mind two things:
 
1. I live in Arizona
2. It is mid-April. Easter is tomorrow.

It snowed here in beautiful Cleveland, Ohio for two days a week ago. I was rather distraught.
