Having A Snow Storm Today?

I love the snow except when I had to drive in it.
As a kid I have fond memories of sitting in our living room with my bunny slippers on watching the snow come down.
I'd watch for my dad to come home from work and as the cars went by I could here the chains on the cars going through the snow. I'd feel so warm and comfy sitting next to the radiator as it hissed and banged occasionally.

I just finished watching the evening news and it amazes me how they seem to attempt to whip up a frenzy of fear over the fact that it snowed today.

I don't remember it being that way years ago and I'm at a loss to understand why it needs to be that way today.

I'm always saying the same thing to my husband - how they tend to over-dramatize the weather, especially when it's going to snow. It's December!

I agree, they do whip up frenzy over snow and so much else too! I have to stop myself from watching the news too often for that reason.:rolleyes:

It is going down to 26F tonight here in South Carolina, but no snow in the forecast. An extra blanket is already on the bed.

It is a major event when it snows around here, and you do NOT want to be on the road with our drivers.

Stay warm Pecos! I hope that extra blanket helps. I've turned the heat up some but it's nice and cozy in here now.

And the drivers here aren't much better--there's tons of accidents on the roads around here today. People have to slow down and be more careful. Sometimes they hit a patch of ice when they're driving too so it's best to drive Real Slow!
 
I post this two to three times every winter, 'I'm so jealous of you folks that get all that snow'.....all year I live for the white fluffy stuff to come our way....some years there's a good amount and some we get none, like last year, ugh....I still luv driving in it thru our little town and will stand outside four or fives times a day just to look up and feel the flakes on my face.....always loved the cold and wind of winter too....❄️❄️❄️
call me crazy, lol.
 
The worst thing about this snow storm has been going out to my car and finding a foot of snow piled on the hood, top and trunk lid. It is very heavy wet snow. It took a house broom to clear as much of it off as I could. A regular snow brush wouldn't have put a dent in it. At least my car looks like a car again and not a mountain of snow.

I really hope the managers here have a snow plow coming to plow the lot. The snow is deep in it and I don't believe I will be able to get out of there with it the way it is now. Good thing I don't have any where to go till Sat.
