The White Death is falling
Here I sit bunkered down in my palatial estate just north of Cincinnati ready for the first sucker punch of the season  I'll attempt to post photos of this tragedy as it unfolds because as you know.... SNOW = WHITE DEATH.

we get snow down here, but most of it just melts within a day or 4. well...except for that blizzard we had sometime back in the ninties. Maryland and Va get most of the snow...that pisses me off.

kjroh, you've just made my day. I just moved down to S.C. from IL this fall, and I have been relishing the realization that I am quite likely not to see one bit of snow this entire winter. I love snow at the mountains, but keep it off my damn lawn. Damn, I'm going for a walk.

I am the Snow Queen. Every time I go to Minnesota in the wintertime, it snows for me. I was just there for thanksgiving, and we got 2" on thanksgiving day. I am now in Utah for Christmas, and the day I got here we landed to frost-covered trees, followed by 2" of snow. Ah, I could get drunk on the power....

Woah, the picture changed! It used to be a man shoveling his snow, now it's a lady in red (sing it with me fellas) and her umbrella!

I fucking hate snow/winter. It's just not natural for a human to be living in such conditions..
Winter is pretty much 5 months of imprisonment. Gets dark by the time you leave for work and you can't even sit outside like you can in the summer. You're stuck indoors. It's just the worst.. Another reason why I hate it is because the very second it starts to snow a little bit, people forget how to drive. The speed limit is 40, people are doing 30 and there's not a single person in front of them. I wish death upon those folks.

 I know!!! It actually started off as a shot inside a home depot picturing a sign saying 4 - 8" of snow. Then it went to the man shoveling. Crazy....

Man, put on some warm clothes, and waterproof clothes, and throw a snowball at your neighbors! Relish it. I probably do more outside things in the winter than in the summer, and it's nice to come inside and have some hot cocoa and let the feeling seep into your hands and feet again! Oh, I love it! It's when the temp gets above 90 that unless there's a pool or ocean to hang out in I'd rather keep myself nice and cool inside. |

I hate snow. It only happens here in the PacNW maybe once a winter every couple of years. I wish it would just stay in the mountains where it belongs. I'm not a skier or a snowboarder and have no great love for cold, wet stuff. Yuck. I have no love for cold, period. I should just move somewhere where it's always warm, but that's not likely.
Interestingly enough, I enjoy DRIVING in the snow but as I no longer have a 4x4 I have no desire to test out my current car, even with its studded tires.

If only it would snow.....just rain for us, and plenty of it. All of the images of the holidays of tromping through snow, throwing snowballs, watching the snow fall......just a fantasy for us. We've had plenty of 75 degree Christmases here. My winter in Iowa will have to last me for a long time........

Hahaha, if I hate snow/winter, why in the world would I bundle up and go play in it?! Clothes or not, it's still cold as fuck outside and you're very limited to what you can do. I like walking around in the warm weather, having my windows/doors open on a summer night, sitting on my deck drinking with friend, etc. We got fucked with 6 inches of snow last night, and I'm seriously about to just up and sell my house and move back to where I should be: CA. I never EVER forgave my parents for moving here when I was 11. Imagine being in CA all of your life only to move to some arctic tundra.. not being able to go outside anymore, being miserable... ugh. Hate it.

It isn't the snow it's the brown crappy slush that bugs me...
It just snowed all night and now it is freezing rain... The roads are a mess and the ice is getting thicker... This is when it sucks.

I hate winter and I especially hate snow. We got about 6 inches last night here in my college town. But my hometown got 14-18 inches and i was supposed to go home for Christmas tonight. They're under a level 3 snow warning which means nobody is to be driving unless absolutely necessary. So hopefully, by tomorrow, the roads are cleared enough so that i can get home for Christmas. Plus my dad works for the Department of Transportation and plows all this white shit off the major highways. He worked 17 hours yesterday, went back in at 7 this morning and will probably work til midnight again. Its supposed to let up by Christmas but the wind is going to pick up, which means he'll probably be out working again on Christmas day. White Christmas' suck ass.

My back yard -- lawn chairs under the dreaded white death!
 The view out a front window with snow up to the bottom of the window sill.  After using a snow plow on a John Deere for over an hour this is what's clear   The neighbors have a lighted deer ... I want to put up a lighted deer hunter aiming at him  The view out the garage door for perspective...way too damn much snow for my liking. And now it's gone down to -3f.

They just said on the news that 9" is the official snow fall total for this storm. I measured 22 inches out in my driveway earlier tonight.

We got ice, no snow (maybe an inch or less) in Nashville. Luckily my new car handled the ice like a dream. I have to wash it now, I don't want the salt/brine mixture to fuck up the paint. Damnit, its cold too. Might just take it to one of those drive-thru type car washes.

I love the picture of Fountain Square.
No snow here in Maysville. Well, theres a dusting on top of the 1/2" of ice we got. We are a little east of the worst of the ice, but no snow like the 'Nati. I'm glad I got out of Louisville earlier in the week, theres a foot of snow there and a lot of people can't get out. Its worse than Cincy. Damn storm.
