It didn't snow here in Indy, it hailed. Nothing but hail and freezing rain for 4 hours, covered up all the streets and is hard as rock today. You know it's frozen over when you can't even leave foot prints in it [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Got so bad, every school in southern Indiana is closed, even mine, which is actually saying a lot. Edit: Spelling [ 01-26-2004, 08:28 AM: Message edited by: Gangrell ] |

Storm #1 was a near miss to the South. #2 should hit with 5-8 inches on Wednesday and the big one is expected Friday with more than a foot. As we speak, the Hudson River by me is solid ice from shore to shore and the water-taxis are struggling to cross it. (Then again, given its Ice vs. Fiberglass with the loser having to swim home, I can't say as I blame them.

UNCG was supposed to go in at 12pm, but they changed that today as I was getting ready to go, and they cancelled all classes. That saved me from taking my Health class quiz.
I still went driving out today. Had to go get some Kerosine incase the power goes out from the ice on the lines. If I am not here tonight or tomorrow, you'll know why.

It is snowing and it is cold. My brand new van that I have been driving for 2 weeks has small crake in the windshield due to the cold. I believe there was a defect in it before I bought it so I will see if I can get them to replace it. Not much hope as windshields are not covered under the warranty which sucks.

however, I LUV IT! born north of Edmonton, this is how I always remembered winter being. I think there's a low of -37 celcius tomorrow (without wind chill). though it's closer to -40 tomorrow for Edmonton and Grande Prairie (which is closer to my home town). I officially declare it winter! YAY!!!!! now lets see if I can get my nose to defrost.

Living in Sydney I have NEVER been to the snow. Maybe one day I will have to take a vacation to the snow to see what all the fuss is about.
