Snow Images! (Almost 56K Friendly.)

You compressed those pictures entirely too much. :P

We haven't gotten too much snow here in Pittsburgh. And thank goodness for that since the city has virtually no snow removal system. The streets just become a brown slush mess.

Damn... Josh, that's a lot of snow! Poor NY. 😛

But I wish we had as much snow up here in Finland. i just lvoe that stuff, and fortunately we have a good snow removal system here unlike in Pittsburgh...

Ah, snow ... I like that stuff 😊 Wish we had some more over here in Switzerland. Instead, we've got a week of rain forecast. I saw some pictures from NY on the news, looks quite dramatic.

Yeah, New York is the great Mixing Bowl. New York gets almost all the weather. It gets a full 120 degree range of temperatures, ranging from 10�F below, all the way up to 110�F. My closet is full of clothes I want to wear, have to wear, and never know when to wear. lawl.

I strongly dislike snow. My cousin dragged me outside yesterday in the thick of it to help her shovel out a car. I gave up after a few minutes. One of my friends made $140 from shoveling a guys driveway.

The worst part of walking through snow is finding where the sidewalk ends and the street starts...

Oh no... snow... I don't get to see that 182 days of the year... *rolls eyes*

If I knew you guys liked snow that much I'd let you take the two feet we've had sitting on the ground since December. Okay not really. It all melted since it's been an unusually warm winter, but you know. It's amazing how people who arne't used to it react to it. In fact it's hillarious to see people flip out when the temp drops below 20 and there's a dusting of snow on the ground.

I have a professor who just moved here from Spokane, and he thought that because the snow melted already, that wouuld be it for the year. That made me laugh histarically and his face went into shock when I told him we generally get snow into May. It's hillarious to hear how is is afraid to drive in the snow too.

BTW, a 40 degree change isn't much. We pull that off here overnight :P

It's not that funny :shakeno: . My first time seeing snow was in 1995. Then the big one in 1996 came freaked me out a bit. Fucking cold. It was fun after I got used to it though. I wish I could find that picture of a snowman we made...'twas priceless.

I'm moving to Minnesota.

Orion - Some people just love snow no matter how much they get. I got BOMBARDED by snow today, but I'm still looking forward to it later in the week when it snows again, and I have the pleasure of brushing off the car to go to school.

If you don't like snow, that's all well and good. If you do like it though, hey, enjoy.

Snow shovelling was always a lowsy business prospect. Most of the old people who needed it shovelled preferred to make their grandsons/sons/husbands do the work. Plus I lived on a corner which gave me about three times the work than most people in my neighborhood, so by the time I got that done I was usually to sick of shovelling to do any more of it.

Eh, to each his own. ^-^' You can still make a quick buck off of it, as Mach said. I shovelled my neighbor's driveway and sidewalk on my own. They were quite happy to see it.

Wow, that was a lot of snow...We barely got anything!

*A.K.A. we didn't get jack crap.*

I buy a shovel, and I'll be using it to scoop up crap from these cats around here. This winter was totally unproductive in the snow factor down here in Kentucky. (And don't ask where it is.)

I like snow. I was expecting it, even...Maybe I should've went to New York and got covered in it, came back, and get rained on...

Cool pics BH4. We got about 10-14 inches here in Pasadena. I was out of town when it snowed, so most of the shoveling had been done before I got back. Ha! 😃

On the down side, I have to walk my dog in the snow and he goes crazy playing in it.

I miss the snow, there is no such thing as a white Christmas, or snow on New Years.

But i guess to compensate, we go to the beach!! 😊

I guess what upsets me about snow is that 90% of people don't know how to drive in it. How many times do you have to pound it into people's heads that you are going to skid on ice, so you have to increase stopping distance. When you learn to drive here, it's pounded into your head that you do NOT slam on your breaks on ice, nor do you swerve, and worse of all, you do not slam on your brakes and turn your wheel at the same time. The result of any of those three will cause you to lose control. But no, people don't get that. Ugh.

My perspective on snow is this. If there's snow on the ground for a White Christmas, great. Otherwise, it can stay away for all I care. That is unless there's enough to get me out of class. My college is in the middle of nowhere, so it closes every so often. Of course, once I get done, it might as well not snow. Ever. Unless I want a snowball fight. Or to sled.

Man, you guys are pussies. Except Orion. Word to my midwest crew.
