First real snow fall!
« on: Dec 26, 2006, 09:39:09 AM »
Wow this winter as been bad so far, temperatures have been above 32° for a while and we only got rain and icing rain (we lost electricity for 24h because of it). Well this morning we have our first real snow fall of this winter, thick wet snow that is going to be a pain in the :moon: to shovel.

Anyway I took a picture.

What is snow? :dunno:

An urban myth.  I live in the hills and very rarely see it!  I remember the days of showing up to school/work with snow caked to my bare legs from riding my bike.  Good times :thumbs:
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

We suck because we got snow but to us you suck cause you have no snow.

Yeah I miss Fl winters. Especially since it has been getting cold here the last few years but no good snow falls.

here we go again. snowfall #5 so far this year, the biggest has been 10" or so. This one may stay, supposed to be down in the 20's for the rest of the week. They say this one will be 4-8" but the 10" snow was supposed to be 1".
