Winter Wonderland?!
« on: December 19, 2008, 04:47:55 PM »
Got at least 10" of snow here in a past few hours. Almost got me Polaris 700 stuck trying to plow!

Been getting hit fairly hard here as well today, probably about 4-6" in the valley and I would guess a couple of feet up at the ski resorts.   I'm still hopeful I will get to play some golf next weekend! (Denial).  I know I will be golfing the day after Christmas I just know it!

That's the stuff we had last week. Now another 10" is predicted for tomorrow and that's heading your way too.

Just had to go out and move my car for the plow, took three of us to push it past the snowbank. SUCKS.

If it isn't too nasty out, I'm gonna get some pics and post 'em in the morning. As much as I hate snow, it is pretty when its still clean.

We were supposed to get up to 10" here in Syracuse, but we only got about 6",  maybe 7.  It is hard to tell with the blowing wind.

I can think of no better time to Golf then in the snow. Solid ice would be even better.
Now THAT might actually get me to tune in and watch this activity on TV for the sheer humorous value.

Ok I'm starting to get PISSED OFF.   I want snow damnit!  I live in Pittsburgh and can remember when I was young AT LEAST ONE 12" snowfall a year.  Now we are lucky to get a coating on the ground.  All we get is a coating now, enough to ice the roads up and screw up traffic bigtime but no real snow.  When we do get some snow, the local politicians raise taxes for 'salt relief'.  Every year they keep the tax tacked on. 
bastards.

Give me snow !

Sin- grab a dump truck or ten and get up here, you can take all you want. The snow piles at the local Wal-Mart are already about twenty feet high, and its not even Christmas yet.  :cry

Crazy part is, it wasn't even lake effect here. Normal, small flakes.
