Big time! I was going to take a picture when we went out today, but found out I forgot my BB.

Take my word for it though there are snowdrifts taller than me!

Iowa must be one of these in the U.S midwest which got snowed in -- have an report in the local newspaper stating that the midwest has just got a snowstorm -- BUT the east area of U.S has been spared.

Please send some of that snow here. I could stand a few snow days off from work.

Oh...

You never a snow-day?

That's okay, I never had one. We had white-outs that allow for no schools or business days, but that's about it.

Yeah, it did. But it was on a Saturday. Totally worthless. Doesn't count as a snow day if it's on the weekend and prevents you from going out and getting things done. Plus, the snow didn't really stick..by Sunday evening it had just about all melted. Boo.

So the whole town shuts down when it snow? As in no requirement to go to work or school?

Neat.

No, not that heavy the U.S snow does, it is snow and then melts when lands. Fluffy, I'll say - everyone was at work, school and whatever, as snow occured in the middle of the day

We here in the Washington Metropolitan area have a very low tolerance for snow. Lol, doesn't take much for the DC goverment to shut down. A couple of inches along with some ice will just about do it. :P

I bet the people from Quebec, Ontario, Maine, Vermont and so on are laughing at you guys.

Only way we have "no schools" here is... when we have a white-out.

So it means when the white out is declared they would bring out this?

I use that for my computer. Fixes the errors quite nicely. Although I will need a new laptop soon... can't see crap on here.

It's a picture of a highway with trucks in a blizzard.
 
No snow covered at my house but bitter cold. :)
 
Kids are confined to their chairs... err... eating pizza for dinner and I am waiting for the ex to arrive (to pick up my son). I need to figure out how to look chipper when I'm feeling nauseated :(

Tonight, i was supposed to do some shopping but my son got sick. He is feeling better now so we are staying in. Just finished cleaning the house which was my plan for tmw so I can go shopping tmw. Switched the days for my plans. Then, after shopping and all that, my hubby, kids and I are going to PA for a Christmas party with the girls whom I have my girls' night out and their families. I cant wait. I havent seen my girlfriends in almost 5 months. Too long!

It seems like DC and Maryland always misses out the fun and we get the nasty sleet or freezing rain. :mad:
