Well, ya'll can keep the snow! I grew up in upstate NY during the 70's....the winters of 77 and 78 were monumental! I can remember walking....er, WADING to school thru chest high snowdrifts......no, I wasn't barefoot, or walking uphill.....but it took me almost 45 minutes to walk less than 1/4 mile! Lived in Buffalo in 96 when tey got 39" of snow in 24 hours....managed to make it to work...a 15 minute trip took 2 hours, and I never got out of second gear......couldn't even see the front end of my truck!

Was watching the weather this am at work......can you believe they actually used the words "WIND CHILL"? This is Arizona for heaven's sake....they wouldn't know wind chill if it froze their asses off! BTWm the "wind chill" was 40 degrees.....it was frigid here today...it barely topped out at 60 degrees.....WUSSES! I'm still walking around in tank tops!

If the closest I ever get to snow again is seeing it roll in over the rest of the country on the Weather Channel, that's fine with me!

I hope you get your day and if you get another snow next I would not be surprised if your pup does the same all over again, my crew of 4(2,6, 10 and 11 year olds) get all frishky on the first snowfall of the year . Enjoy!!!

I'll tell you what....you turn the fucking heat off whenever I come through Hartford so I don't have to change my shirt 6 times between the airplane and the rental car station...and I'll ship in 5 truckloads of shaved ice every January for you.

Deal?

Heh, I've always loved snow, it seems in the last five years we haven't been getting as much as we used to get... I want some huge storms with 2-3 feet of snow, at least one a year, and some scattered 6-12 storms throughout winter, I mean come on, winter is supposed to mean tons of snow all over the place.

Although, I haven't gotten a chance to do anything in/with snow in years, I used to love sledding, making snow cave things... But of course there isn't even a yard for the apartment I live in now, so I don't have a convenient place to play in the snow anyway.

I still love it though.

We got snow last February. In Ireland it rarely snows at Christmas. The last was in 04. Hopes of a White one this year are as expected quite low

I grew up in Upstate NY, on the other end of Lake Ontario (Oswego) through the 70's as well -- though I have to admit, I always LOVED being out in the snow... digging snow forts in the back yard, sledding down the hill at the park across the street, skating on the Mill Pond... and losing your boots in a snowbank where your foot fell in up to your groin, or having your mittens drop out of your pocket at school (or forgetting them in your locker) and having to walk home (2 miles) swapping your books from one side to the other so you didn't get frostbite...

... but my fondest memories are of this time of year, after the lights were put up for the holidays, and going out at dusk, as people were turning on their lights, and the lights and decorations sparkled off the snow, making everything brighter and more intense by the blank slate of the snow's blanket.
