Wow. I just got back from digging my car out. The snow was up to the windows (on a suburban). This is a lot of snow. We got an easy 24" here in Northern Virginia. I guess it is a good day for listening to music.

woo-hoo! too bad for the kiddies -- probably would have been a snow day but they already have president's day

. any good skiing in virginia? i've never been to the east coast mountains.

 

[jpelg]

Still coming down strong in CT! Digging out the car is going to be a b!$@h.

Thank goodness for cable, broadband, DVD's, and music, music, music!

We got over 18" here in northern NJ and it is still coming down.
I haven't even touched the shovel yet.

Opps, Double post.

Crap.... I'm going to get nailed, I guess.

now let's see if it doesn't turn into a Nor' Easter when it hits the water.

it's 73 degrees in Phoenix, today.

i hear NYC is buried. 22.5"

the city will be closed.

27" in Maryland.

Can you tell i hate snow and don't miss it?

bah, I was in the Blizzard of '78. 60" fell that day... you youn'uns have it easy.

For Pittsburg and Buffallo it's just another day. No biggie.

guess there won't be a drought this year for the northeast.

Champion PA and Terra Alta (High Ground) WV town, parts of Maryland got 40"

the ski shops are calling in their workers to get back to work, the slopes are being groomed. doo dah. doo dah.

oh, you want your car dug out? that'll be $50.

It's a great time to own a plow.

16 hour shifts at $100 an hour. keep the coffee coming Mertle.

"Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow."

I hear Australia is pretty this time of year.

must be in the 90s. pass a barbi-scrimp, mate.

Wouldn't you really rather be in Puerto Rico right about now?

Nothing like listening to Christmas music on the beach.

Not surprisingly, Raleigh just got ice instead of snow.

One small irony, Presidents day is usually a no school day, but this year they scheduled it as a make up day for last month's snow day.

We do have some decent east coast skiing here in VA, but there is no way to get there. I-81 was shut down last night, and front royal got over 4 ft of snow.

 

[andrzejpw]

We got a bit over a foot here in pittsburgh, maybe a foot and a half. Digging out today was fun

. Ahh well, my school had a snow makeup day today(we had a closing before winter break). We showed them.

 

[joelongwood]

Well, it is pretty.............but my back is gonna pay for the sight.

 

[Zanth]

Heh...pansies the lot of you. I live in the coldest capital and most often the coldest place on earth. Snow? That's what are our houses are made of, we have so much of it...

Canada...winter was born here and never frickin' left.

Here in the Northwest it has been way too warm and we are looking at not having enough water for irrigation this summer.

I was a young'n at the time, but I remember it well. Now that was crazy!!!

This is about the time of year that I threaten to move to AZ (or some place else warm). If not for my family, I would have long ago (can you tell I am not a winter/snow person?). Actually if my company does not step up with a job promotion this year, moving is a very real possibility later on.

Took me 4 hours to shovel 23" out of my driveway (4 cars worth).
I'm beat.
