• Nope, no snow where I’m at. I do hear that Connecticut has been hit pretty heavily though, my dad must be having a blast shoveling without me. 8-)

  • yah, globel warming, it’s getting so warm that it’s snowing in Baghdad.

    sorry couldn’t help it.


  • My snow is gone :-(


  • Yeah, it does get cold, but I haven’t even seen it rain yet much less snow. Lucky guys in Baghdad…

    It’s been too cold to snow here.  You know, the air has to be a certain temperature to hold moisture to begin with.  I’m guessing higher then it takes to freeze an alcohol compass. (My compass, which is suspended in alcohol, was frozen this morning.  Literally frozen.  The ‘rubber’ was makes up the suction cup, whatever it’s called, was so stiff it let go of my windshield too!)

    No Snow and a moderate Temperature in TX, Muwhahaha… Honestly Switch you should be happy that your in the kind of place that “auto-melts” your snow for you…

  • I know, I know… I shoveled 14’ my last winter in PA, and I HATED it.

    But here… Here they shut down for snow…  free vacation day.

    And my back yard would be so pretty with a 6" blanket of snow!  And I have these great windows that I could sit in front of with my coffee (or a glass of wine…) and watch the squirrels play in the snow :-)

    I have been waiting for 3 years now, and I need more snow than we had over the weekend to realize my goal :-)

    LOL, wait until Sept/Oct, you’ll regret wishing for rain. ;)


  • Thats when I got here Dezrt, I must have just missed it. :-(

    Could be August, it only lasts a few weeks, but it’s miserable.  All that dusty clay turns into wet clay and you end up being 3 or 4 inches taller from the mud stuck to your boots.

    LOL, yeah, it’s in the mid 60’s here.  It’s tough sometimes to make the decision to either wear a jacket or long sleeve shirt, especialy if I haven’t had any coffee yet.

    its snowing again.  :x

    and its going to be -8  without wind chill tonight.  :|        walking to and fro campus blows the big one.

    but when i wear my down coat thats bigger than me, my thermal underwear, 2 pairs of socks, insolated boots, layers under coat, my hat, gloves and if needed b/c its freakin super freezing wind, my scarf, the elements cant touch me.    8-)


  • Given time Balung, the elements ALWAYS win. They are the one enemy that even the Corp cannot overcome. Just some wides words I remember from my days at Paris.  :wink:

    The worst I ever dealt with was -38F.  I lived in an ancient 12x50 trailer at the time.  I had frost INSIDE on my exterior walls to 12" above the floor (furnace could not keep up).  When I went to start the car to go to work (a 1984 VW Rabbit) the starter made half a revolution then would not make another sound for 3 days until it warmed up.

    I do NOT miss that crap!

    :-D
