8. Almost falling on your ass in the driveway
Because during the day the snow melts and than at night it freezes and when I come home from work at midnight I'm not paying attention to the big ice patches on the driveway...:mad:

21. THE ICE IS THE WORST!!!!!!!
my co-worker just had her car FROZEN into her driveway. She got the city workers who were fixing something nearby to help her chip the tires out of the ice and push the car.

I almost fall on my ass a lot in these conditions.

22. Hmmmm, Texas?
Here's wishing you a "beautiful" drought, heat wave, dust storm, and hurricane or tornado.

There's nothing beautiful about snow... only misery. Trust me on this one... I live near Boston.

Freezing rain here.

So I get to irritate my boss with my tales of woe when the kid gets a delayed open.

My workplace will fall apart without me there, I tell you!

18. I know. Yesterday I actually heard a lawnmower.
Apparently, one of my neighbors was cutting the lawn.

But, it got a little wet today. :-(

And, I know it's a lot worse on the east coast.

On the positive side, the days ARE getting longer. And, there's only 2 more months of winter.

:D

:hi:

23. here is what weatherunderground.com says for new haven
apparently it starts tonight:

<snip>

"Snow will overspread the region from west to east overnight. Most
areas should see between 1 and 2 inches by daybreak with another 2
to 3 inches falling during the day. This would give a total snowfall
of between 3 and 5 inches across the region by the time it all wraps
up late in the day Wednesday. In addition... some light freezing
drizzle may mix in at times Wednesday afternoon. "

24. OH the weather outside is frightful
but the fire is so delightful,
Let it snow, let it snow.

Sorry could not resist. We have been in the 70's here.

25. It just ain't that hard to figure out
You live north of the snow line and you're gonna get SNOW throughout the winter months.

You live SOUTH of the snow line and you get to go outside in shirtsleeves at the end of January and enjoy the warm sunny days.

IMHO anyone who chooses to live "up there" deserves every blizzard they get (and I've been forced to live through some nasty ones myself).

Please note, this missive is heavily laden with sarcasm. But if you live up north, you're probably not quick enough to figure that out... :evilgrin:
