BMC6053 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I'm excited - 15-30 inches of the white stuff maybe more depending on if we get thunder-snow. May get blizzard conditions 2! hehe. I haven't seen a good snowfall in ages! I lived in VT for a bit and not much snow there - or at least ni Burlington.. now I live in the capital region of NY and I'd be lucky to see 3 inches for a year (yet Oswego county gets 11 feet in a week.. wtf). I only remember seeing real snow as a kid in central NY (the blizzard of 93 was the first memorable for me.. since we got a week off from school!). Anyway - I'm excited -- first storm of the year -- about time! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/42313-finaly-some-damn-snow/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadiekiller Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 haha, i'm starting to envy your lack of snow. Here in Denver we are about to reach the record for longest period of snow on the ground. I'm utterly sick of it. usually it snows a good 4 inches and then melts in a day or two, but this year it just doesn't want to go away.

erbic Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I live southeast of Boston; we're forecast to get maybe 3-6 inches tonight. Yeah, right. We haven't seen anything substantial all winter. Even if we do get quite a bit of snow, I guarantee we won't have a snow day. Our superintendent is a {censored} to begin with, but it's her last year and I KNOW she's going to be as evil as possible. Meaning no snow days. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/42313-finaly-some-damn-snow/#findComment-302422 Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got out early today, we don't have school tomorrow, and we'll possibly have Thurs. off too. Good way to break up the week.

erbic Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I'm PRAYING for a snow day tomorrow. I have a huge ass English project due that I may not get finished tonight.

BMC6053 Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 lol - I'm happy about the snow. 2ft+ in areas here two. I'm right on the damn borderline of the damned weather map where the lines say 12-24inces and 24+ (up to 3 ft). 6 Ft? Imagine 11FT not stop snow for a period of 7 days and only a half day break - the snow in Oswego county NY continues LoL = they can't be 2 happy right now.

Dr. Hurt Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) WOW... We had some snow here in Cairo but it didn't last. It was only for a few minutes and then the sun shined again. It hasn't snowed anything considerable for 2-3 years.

BMC6053 Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 They are due to get the heaviest stuff this storm too. 36"+. Haha.No - they really truly can't be happy LOL! WOW...We had some snow here in Cairo but it didn't last. It was only for a few minutes. It hasn't snowed real snow for 2-3 years. I'm surprised that it ever snowed in Cairo! I could imagine the excitement everyone would be in if it snowed 2-3 inches and lasted a day or two there. Especially when London closed down over a few inches LOL. .. Though I'm not sure what fake snow would look like.. and I'm sure I'd freak out in any kind of sand storm (something like a blizzard I suppose?). I usually hate snow and winter in general.. but when you see pavement (can't see it anymore since its snowing out) and its only in the 20F (I'm guessing the average for the month) its pretty damn depressing without the white stuff. Plus when it snows its like a warm blanket LOL. BTW: Looks like 2 to 3 inches so far.. just started though.. and it looks more "WET" and "ICY" than I would have expected =0\ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/42313-finaly-some-damn-snow/#findComment-302572 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMC6053 Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Its going steady here now to. But none of the weather reports seem to be exactly the same. I guess I'll wait and see how much snow we get LOL. 14-30 inches is a big window I think. BTW I'm in the capital region.. Schenectady county is on the border between the two big snow-fall amounts.. so its like flipping a coin here.

Paranoid Marvin Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 We are meant to get tonnes of snow this year, but because we live on the coastline, we have none. 10 miles inland have had loads, but we have none....

I didn't mean fake snow. It was real snow but a very small amount. I remember when it last snowed relatively a lot in Cairo because that was the day my grandma died. And yeah it would be very exciting if it snows 2-3 inches like in the old days (before 1960s as my grandpa remembers). Anyway, I go to the city of Saint Cathrine (far north of Egypt) where there is a lot of snow, so I didn't really miss it.
