Do you plug it in overnight?

Woo, ice storm! You could probably go ice skating in the parking lot if you wanted to.

We got off work a little early tonight and the plant is shut down both shifts tomorrow due to the weather. It's been sleeting all day and, although it's warmer now than it was when I went to work in the afternoon, it's supposed to cool off again tomorrow and dump another load of snow/ice.

Zero should be happy. If my weather is any indication, he's enjoying a nice blanket of snow right about now.

Correct! I was walking outside in it several times today, though not while it was falling, unfortunately.

Last night's snow is melting. Poor, poor Zero.

May I just have a moment of ranting?

Because New York needs to make up its' frikkin' mind already. If it would like to be Spring, then it should be Spring. If it would like to be Winter, then it should be Winter. It should NOT do all of this mushy hail/rain/not-really-snow-snow and "I'm temptingly sunny and yet I will suck every ounce of warm from your body" business.

I am sick and tired of all of this damn thermal equivocation.

Ok, I'm done now.

Last week I was in BC and the crocuses were blooming, and even on the mountains the daffodils were coming up out of the ground. Then I returned here and the snowbanks were almost down to 12". Now they're going back up to over my head. Bitter? Why yes. Crocuses are a FEBRUARY FLOWER darnit!

Arghhhh, snow is trying to make me fail exams for the second time this winter.

We could possibly get a FOOT of snow, which I've probably never seen in central or southern Ohio.

Belatedly, no. It doesn't have a heater. And, even if it did, when I wrote that I was staying over night in a small town in Minnesota, so it was parked in the hospital parking lot.

It STARTED.

Dude. My car broke down a million times the first year I got it. Neither the odometer nor the speedometer nor the passenger side mirror work.

It started cold after being left outside overnight in -33 degrees.

It is the best car in the world.

I'm soooo jealous!

We're having another winter storm. To go with the one we had earlier this week.

there is a foot of ICE in my drive way! I'm tired of this
warm cold warm cold weather.

MELTING! IT'S ALL MELTING!

It's going to be in the 20s and 30s all week! WOOHOOOOO!!! SPRING IS COMING!!!!!

Nearly 40 today! Soon, soon, soon it will be weather I'd be willing to ride my bike in! Which will give me another alternative to the damn exercise videos/DVDs! Which is good, as my DVD player appears to have died.

Apparently we have a monsoon season now. 6.4 inches of rain on tuesday, just a tenth short of the record set in October 1910. Our average for the whole of March is only 4.29.

Postby **Eaquae Legit** » Sat Mar 22, 2008 11:08 pm

It's snowing. Real, honest-to-goodness snow. Snow that stays on the ground.

Hahaha, people here are going to be so freaked out by the inch or so of snow. It'll probably make headlines.

I miss the snow so bad. It's HOT in here, and so dry..

Syphon the Sun · Postby **Syphon the Sun** » Mon Mar 24, 2008 12:24 pm

We had a nice snow storm yesterday. Only got about an inch or two that stuck, and it was all melted by this morning, but Zero probably enjoyed the snow while he could -- some of the flakes were as big as a half dollar.

Speaking of weather, you know what I hate (and this could really go in two threads)? When it hails, and you (being the astute person that you are) point out as much, and someone nearby says "You call this hail? This isn't hail! Where I come from the hail is always as big as golf balls!" Really, you can substitute anything you want in for hail. Is it truly necessary to be competitive in that? Wouldn't that make you lose for being from such a place?

Postby **Dr. Mobius** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 1:13 am

Oort Cloud wins when it comes to massive hail.

zeroguy · Postby **zeroguy** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 3:05 am

You call that annoying? That's not annoying! Where I come from the competitiveness is always as big as golf balls!

But seriously, I do know someone who tends to do with with every form of cold weather around here. I think everyone around him has learned to never mention that it's cold, or that there's a lot of snow, or whatever. I can sympathize, Mich.

starlooker · Postby **starlooker** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 7:45 am

I celebrated too soon. Thirties for the rest of the week. And random snow at intervals. Also, for the first time this season, I fell on the ice yesterday. I'm so disappointed. I wanted to get through one season without that happening and this is my last one here, in all likelihood (although, I suppose it technically is spring, so that wouldn't count, except I know better and cannot claim a moral victory over gravity.)

Rei · Postby **Rei** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 2:26 pm

It's supposed to be 2, here, but the windchill is lowering that sense, I expect. Seems Winter had to throw one last snowstorm at us.

Postby **Luet** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 2:49 pm

I want a March blizzard!

Rei · Postby **Rei** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 5:29 pm

Not really, no. I think everybody here is sick of snow by now.

Postby **Luet** » Tue Mar 25, 2008 8:01 pm

I didn't say I wanted a blizzard for YOU but here in upstate NY we have only had one respectable (meaning at least a foot) snow storm all winter and I really want at least one more. We usually have way more snow than this. Stupid dumb stupid weather.

Postby **Dr. Mobius** » Wed Mar 26, 2008 12:55 am

Hell no. I just got new windshield wipers. I don't want them getting f****** up like the last pair for at least 8 months.

If "here" is pweb, then I believe you are incorrect, sir.

No, here is Toronto, where we've seen multiple snow storms in one week.

Speaking of which, apparently a few people in Montreal have died this winter from roofs collapsing under the snow. Some schools were even closed for fear of it at one point.

GodInYourEyes · Postby **GodInYourEyes** » Wed Mar 26, 2008 10:32 am

Poor people, how much snow was on thier house?

Its sunny here

almost all the snow (that fell over the weekend) is gone!
Its wierd, it like it never happened.

Petra456 · Postby **Petra456** » Wed Mar 26, 2008 11:01 am

It's actually looking like spring here. Sunny, cold, and the flowers are starting to bloom. On some days I can even see our mountain!

How about that weather, then, eh?
