Down south here in South Carolina these fools get "milk an bread" crazy at the slightest hint of maybe a storm coming, it's fucking pathetic to me who has lived in Upstate new york literally 4 miles from Lake Ontario, I have seen and been in snow drifts as tall as or taller than me(5'9") so the 2-3 inches that melt almost immediately is nothing to me. Hell the only road hazard at that time is the drivers down here who have no defensive driving sense or basic common sense at all
Wished it snowed where I live. Not to the point where no one could get to work, just enough so I could probably throw some snowballs.
Anywho, hope things get better over there ert.

Obviously things like this happen, it's just hard to wrap my sun-drenched head around it. Flood warnings I can get, maybe even an extreme heat warning? Snow warnings just boggles the mind.

Sorry, I had to.
I've never heard of driving bans due to snow. How deep is it now?
All I have to look forward to is a bit more queuing in the rain.
Would it surprise you if I told you that this weather pops up on occasion even in southern Sweden? Even in MAY?
In Colorado, no one seems to understand the big deal. We get large snowstorms starting around November and continuing until April. I don't think anywhere except near the mountains got it as bad as the east-coast in the last couple of years though. It's a matter of how prepared the area is really.
You been to the town centre lately? Riverside by the oracle is crazy flooded most of the time. Like you cant go down the stairs by Mcdoos.BlackStar42 said:
Its weird that theres another reading guy on this website though. The snow was pathetic :C Before was wayyy better.
You guys call that a blizzard? I have shoveled more snow then that off my car in the morning before going to work.
You really shouldnt talk about things you know nothing about. Most people who live in eastern US or Canada know what the blizzard of 1978 was.Hannya said:
haha good one. I'm from up north too and never heard of a driving ban although I have had businesses close down.lacktheknack said:http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTt2B_-xvgGlpXFbTB9JxRyuxCdhW-An46ARwdJcLgqX9j_EbvR

Give it time, man. We'll get another "Hurricane of the Century" sooner or later. Remember that whole thing about "It's been 10 years since our last really bad hurricane, so the next one will be absolutely devastating!" and nothing really happened?Noxshadow said:

98 was the year the ice storm took out power in eastern North America for quite long periods of time. The power lines collapsed under the weight of all the ice from freezing rain. School was out for weeks in some areas and many people died using unconventional heaters(like propane BBQs) to keep themselves from freezing to death in their own home.PedroSteckecilo said:I'm curious as well, the photo is an exaggeration (at least for Western Canada) and hereabouts we've never actually shut down car traffic due to heavy snow... things just really, really suck for awhile.lacktheknack said:http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTt2B_-xvgGlpXFbTB9JxRyuxCdhW-An46ARwdJcLgqX9j_EbvR

I only ever remember getting one Snow Day at school and that was way back in 1998 when we got 3 feet over night, but that's it, also I think my dad still went to work that day.
All that said, it was both rather horrible and uniquely beautiful.

I don't know, mid winter it usually gets too cold here for it to snow that much. 4-6 years ago we got quite the snowfall though, I remember walking down my street to go to work at night and not being able to see the houses over the snowbanks, just the light coming from the driveways in between snowbanks. That was pretty cool to experience.
That being said, it doesn't take much to get Toronto to freak out over the weather. Though I suppose on the other hand Toronto's traffic situation is pretty damn awful on the best of days so anything that makes it worse would be pretty rage inducing.Soviet Heavy said:

But your car is apparently Bumblebee from the Bayformers movies. Can't you just have him transform and carry you?Zeren said:Snow is my mortal enemy. My car cannot handle it well at all. The last time we had a somewhat deep snow, this happened.
It still shows up as a pic of Emma Watson saying "***** Please" for me. Doesn't show anything...Lazy said:
What'd it show you?
