    Everything is closing for this badboy storm. We are suppose to get 4 inches an hour when it starts really going. Right now it sucks and its only getting worse.
    Schools are closed tomarrow, they still havnt touched the highways with plows and you can almost not even see the street.
    I cant wait to get drunk and sled

    Sounds scary and cool! I love how snow looks but I hate living with it. I can't wait until my husband gets out of the military so I can live in Florida again :D But that isn't for another 4 years in England...

    In Kansas it's worse. 9 inches in some spots, and it's still going thorughout the day, winds in excess of 30 mph, roads frozen over, hell a SCHOOL BUS flipped over on Monday! No one got hurt though.

    I'm getting the same in Michigan. Supposed to get anywhere from 8 to 16 inches in the next 24 hours. I probably won't have to work the next two days, but I'll be mostly snowed in.

    I'm buying a bunch of whiskey and Borderlands to get me through.

    Snow can be really scary too. Little amounts are a nuisance but you gotta remember ice comes with it. Frozen power lines, if electricity goes out your heat goes out. If an emergency happens and all the roads havnt been plowed(cause normally they wait til after the storm to do plowing). Its no 100mph winds, but it has its treachery. And the winds do pick up quite a bit.

    Only if you drive in it. You can stay home and the worst thing that could happen is a power outage. Then you're just cold.

    A Hurricane could F U up.

    I guess they could both be scary in their own way. ;)

    If enough accumulates, it can also cave in your roof. That's definitely something to worry about.

    Were you the one who moved about a month ago? I remember SOME forum member moved to another continent anyway.... If so, did you miss the snow? Ireland and the UK got really bad snow about a month or two ago. I might be moving to the UK soon :?

    I bought Borderlands GOTY edition a while back, and can't get into it at all

    there's supposedly a chance it could snow on Thursday/Friday....but it always turns out to pretty much be a **** ton of sleet. I've only seen legit snow once.

    I don't remember if I ever posted about it on the forums. I couldn't really post anything from the end of October to late December (was moving at that time and trying to get everything set up) I think there was a snow storm before I got here that happened in November, but I was here for the second snowstorm. But yes, I did get here about a month ago :) Where will you be moving too if you do get here?
