Chuck,
That looks like the DC area.  As soon as the white stuff starts coming down, everyone panics and they roll up the sidewalks and close everything.  Being a Minnesota native it always cracks me up when winter comes around here in Northern Virginia.  We're supposed to get a couple of inches tomorrow, so the afternoon commute home should be just "ducky".
Cheers ,

Lots of happy kids & lots of parents who may be pulling their hair out by noon or so tomorrow. 


From personal experience, the driving on ice sucks most everywhere.  Does not snow often in the south (deep south) & it figures that people would not be as proficient driving in it.

We've been snow free here for the last several years. Not anymore. This is Atlanta, not Buffalo!!!!!

Hmmmmm....... and I was just fixing to step out to the garage and start packing the bike for a trip up to the Cycle World Show.... guess we will rethink that idea...................

I'm entertained by this thread.  You guys rock!  I was in FLA for Christmas a few years back and while we were gone my home town received 7 feet of snow in about 3 days.  We drove home through Georgia and the Carolinas in a light snow and it was like a scene from "I Am Legend".  There was maybe an inch on the ground.  We stopped just north of Columbia and checked in to a motel and went next door to order a pizza and they told me I had to hurry up and order before they closed.  I had a good laugh with them when I told them we were on our way back to Buffalo and would be there the next day and nothing was closed.

I really enjoy the heavy snow that slows the world down a little bit.  I'm with Iski, let the others get the bread and milk, I want to make sure I have enough BEER!

Was born/raised where it snowed maybe 2 times a year, so was not used to it early on.  Job & travel has required me to work in various parts of the frozen winter wasteland.  Driving in it while not fun sometimes is something I do on occasion.  The frenzy & frantic behaviors contribute to the accident quotients.  That's only one reason schools close, etc.  Superintendents & various govt. folks do not wish to be held accountable if a tragedy occurs, & the road clearing mechanisms in some of the country are extremely inadequate as Chuck referred to earlier.  In other words, its just cheaper & safer to let the stuff melt than deal with it's removal a couple of times a year. Jgeorge - it's important to have priorities!

WELCOME TO CANADA!!!

[nidan]

Yep, got it over here in Buford as well ... maybe its heavy mold?

[RJ749]

I guess I better stop travelling south.  The last time I was in Orlando it did the same and was pretty cold there Monday night when we went down there.  Maybe the tail wind sucked the snow most of they way, at least to Hotlanta

Need a blower yet?

We got some of the white chit also but the rain took care of it while everyone was sleeping......

Don't sweat it. It should all be pretty much gone by this afternoon. All but the snowman on my front lawn.

I was hoping to use it as an excuse to work from home today, but it didn't work out that way. Traffic was light so that was a plus.

You know us "Northerners" laugh when watching you "Southerners" deal with a little snow....right?

Of course we do. Down here it's a welcome treat. It brings out the inner child in everyone. Up where you live, it's one of the reasons people move down here.
