We have just as much here, but we have a few steps up to our door, so no shoveling needed to get inside ^^

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.

It's snowing outside. Pretty light right now, mostly getting blown around by the wind, and I doubt it will stick, but we're getting snow here.

You know, there is another alternative to that called a "Molotov Cocktail".

A more practical solution will be to rig a leafblower to a portable heater.

14" outside my door at last measurement... My hubby's shift at work ended at 8am and he still can't get home, since the asstards at his jobplace didn't contract a plow or anything. He literally cannot get out of the underground garage....

I am displeased

I have been shoveling snow all day up here in Northern VA. I also measured around 19 inches outside my house in Annandale, Fairfax County.

This is the biggest snowstorm that the Northern VA area has seen since god knows when.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I live in South East England, and we've had absolutely nothing. Other parts of the U.K are getting some, but not us

Snow please.

Well, it started to snow when I came out of exams. It was light stuff and looked like salt... Around 2-3 PM, it started to get worse...

Here is a picture of this snow... going to get about 6-10 inches.

Spoiler for snow:

Wow, I'm glad that I didn't schedule my train ticket from Wilson, NC to Philadelphia, PA for today. I would have been snowed in at DC.

Still snowing.... starting to pick up, actually. I wonder if I might have trouble getting home tomorrow.

There will probably be a foot of snow where I live by the time I wake up Sunday morning to shovel all of this crap away.

I was supposed to go bowling tonight but I couldn't make it thanks to the snow storm.

/raises giant middle finger to Mother Nature

As I grow older, snow is less and less enjoyable.

Now now, how about moving state?
Flip out all you want on Jack Frost, he'll just dump even more of the white stuff on your doorstep xD
Enjoy the season while it lasts
(Mystie can say this because she's no longer in NY/NJ when it did snow about 6 inches or so in freaking late Febuary) x.x;;;;

What amuses me is surely for countries that deal with mass amonunts every winter, they should be able to handle and deal with it, as much as let's say Canada or Scotland do.
It's not like it's a surprise...

Sucks that I don't have gloves or mittens. Pretty stupid of me to tell my parents "naw, I don't need them" when they suggested I bring gloves my last visit home... ah well. It was still fun. Half the campus was on the library steps sledding and throwing snowballs. At like, midnight.
Spoiler for Picture:


Snow makes me sort of giddily happy. Wonder if they'll cancel my final tomorrow... (fat chance lol)
