Turn Off The Damn Snow Machine!

[red states rule]

I just had 2 1/2 feet of snow dumped on me and now ANOTHER 10 to 20 inches of snow is on the way!

Will someone please cut the power to the snow making machine?

I feel your pain. We are going to get 8-12", however not in the time frame for a snow day, or so it seems. Only a couple inches by morning-will accumulate faster during the day. Out at 3:30-meeting, near white out conditions by 4pm. Tapering off early Wed. morning, meaning school will be open if major arterial roads are open. Two days of horrible driving, to and fro.

It is amazing Kathianne. People gave up their SUV's to save Mother Earth for this?

My buddy is driving so it is his call if we leave work early. It is to start just when we start our shift

The brass on the third floor are very slow to shut the site down early

This year the principal decided that an email will go out by 7am if school is closed. I'm not leaving until 7. If the snow hits the way they are saying, I'll be late, along with over half of the staff.

This is a case of our knowing the drive home will be treacherous. In days gone by the school could do an 'early dismissal', no longer possible because no one is home to get the kids.

Isn't Global Warming wonderful. I mean who would have thought that warmer temperatures would cause more snow? I mean come on, global warming, I always thought that meant warmer temperatures. Oh well, guess those scientists were right!!!!!!!

It is gettung warmer here in NH! In fact, I was thinking of getting some banana trees to plant in my yard (in anticipation of the tropical weather we are sure to experience this summer).

They were already closing some schools here and that it what i was figuring. Easier to close than to send home dangerous.

Too bad hospitals don't shut down... maybe when we are Government owned...

The ONLY good thing about all the snow is Al Gore is no where to be seen sprewing his global warming crap, and the demands for additional taxes/government regulation he is always saying will"fix" the problem

It is good to see the government shut down for a few days. At least Obama and the Dems are unable to further screw us and pass more spending bills

That's why God mad 4WD.

We've had two 8" storms here this year, and we average 6"/ year. I drive in it almost every weekend up to the mountains and back.

I have a Toyota Echo, and have to make due. I bought brand new tires with great traction, but when there is 6 inches or more on the roads, I am not a happy camper

When I lived in Upstate NY I had a '79 Ford Escort with Michelin all season tires. That little car would climb trees in the snow.

I just got new tires on the Expedition. The old ones had 48K on them and were down to the wear bars. I had a problem hydroplaning but they were still good in the snow.

Its been the best ski season here that I can remember.

We were suppose to get 6 to 8 inches by noon today. We already have the six. And it's not even 10 am. My son in law does snow removal, so he's out working. He loves it cause he makes a lot of money in this stuff. He plowed the drive way yesterday and you can't tell it now.

My dog really loves this stuff, she's out running around in it now.
