Its okay, Grazic is probably shoveling snow when the rest of us are having BBQ.

Unless he lives in the Blue Mountains he wouldn't shovel snow...ever. We don't get snow except on mountains. I have a whacking great mountain right out my window and it usually has snow on it, but there has only been sea level snow twice in my lifetime (and I live in Tasmania which is the coldest state) |

Re: Ok, I like a white Christmas and all, but...
I'm Near Montreal here and yesterday we had Rain! So most of the snow in my little town has melted. it's a little icy, and the grass is still covered but the sidewalks and roads are pretty clear.
..and due to my mother being under the weather, the family has decided to do an emergency move of the Christmas super here to my house. That leaves me holding the turkey and the menu at the Last minute. Looks like it's going to be a long day. Oh well, I can sleep between xmas and new years I guess.
Cheers!  |

Re: Ok, I like a white Christmas and all, but...
Well down here in good 'ol Tidewater Virginia we got 0.0625 inches (one sixteenth of an inch) of snow woith two inch drifts!!! That was enogh to shut down all the schools for the day and to cause everyone to drive under thirty MPH. The amazing thing is that it actually snowed before christmas this year.

Re: Ok, I like a white Christmas and all, but...
Well, anyone who lives in a snow area can appreciate this. Today I woke up and the city had got around to plowing our stree. DId a pretty good job of it actualy. I could see asphalt in spots. Of course that meant I got to dig out our driveway again.  And it wasn't the nice soft snow from yesterday, it was hardpacked and full of ice chunks the size of my head.

Here it often comes down as just cold rain.

Nah, he ain't. In Norfolk/VA Beach they close everything at the slightest bit of snow/ice. Like, a few inches closes the base, etc...
Alarik - whose flight to Ohion got cancelled earlier today...

Re: Ok, I like a white Christmas and all, but...
I remember going to school in six inches of snow. If it was eight inches, school might be canceled.
