SNOW!!

[thegiraffe]

I get that the weather isn't breaking news anymore.

~However~

The forecast actually says "snow" for tonight! And I'm in central Florida! I can't verbalize how freaking excited I am!!!

[Food Lady]

I'm excited for you, worried about my uncle, who can't afford his electric. He's without heat.

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

I can't verbalize how freaking sick of snow I am already.

Another morning spent clearing a nipple-deep, rock-hard wall of snow away from the emergency exits because the plows just left it there. I shouldn't have to break my back before I can even start my list for the day.

Oh, and as I was trying to do this, some guy in a front-end loader with a snowplow attached decided that would a good time to come by and grade down the snowy asphalt so the surface was level to drive on. So I pretty much had to throw myself in the snowbank so I wouldn't get hit with the plow as he passed.

They oughta just give me some cherry bombs and get the hell out of my way.

We had snow last night/this morning. And a bit in the early afternoon. Nothing major, though. My parking lot wasn't plowed in any way, shape or form when I left for work, but once I was on the road it was just wet (not that you'd know that from the way people drive when they see so much as a snowflake. The person in front of me turning onto the highway craaaawwwled out from the light...you'd have thought there were several inches on the road ).

I'm starting to get sick with the thought of how high produce prices are going to be.

If you like snow then come to Colorado. We have plenty of that.

Bah, with the wind up like it has been all your snow blew through here last night.

[thegiraffe]

It's sleeting! I now know what sleet is!

(I've lived in Florida for 20 years...winter weather is a bit of a phenomenon here lol)

Snow = Giant pain in the arse. -.- Maybe not so bad if you're in a country that DOESN'T automatically grind to a halt when it snows, but over here in England it's a flipping pain. I can't get into work. Nothing is working; there's no buses, no trains. Taxis won't come to my village while it's imitating Canada. I am seriously fed up.

My parents are stuck in London, so I'm staying at their house at the moment so I can feed the cat. Plus here I can crank the heating up which I can't back at my flat.

I wish the snow would just GO AWAY. We haven't gotten much of it this year (2 inches MAX before Thursday morning!) But now it's been snowing non stop since Thursday... Grrr... And me planning to move to Florida to escape it? Yeah I don't want to hear there's snow THERE too!

[AdminAssistant]

The snow is...eh. I can take it or leave it. I'm just ready to temps in double digits.

[Lace Neil Singer]

England's response to snow:

Seriously; it's annoying that they won't even get the snow ploughs and gritters out til about six inches have fallen and by then the bloody lorries can't even get thru.

[Rapscallion]

Must admit, the local councils always seem supremely surprised by the arrival of winter and the likelihood of snow.

Like one of our suppliers who never seems to realise that their chocolate items (coins etc) are going to sell in far greater quantities come easter.

Don't worry too much about it. The few times it does snow in Florida, the snow disappears faster than cocaine at a Lindsay Lohan party.

And now I remember why rule #1 is in place... thank god i'd rather choke on coffee than get it on my computer! And thank goodness I've still got a few weeks til my journey! Hopefully by then there will be no snow remaining in Florida
