I created my own snow day. No way in hell am I going out there in -10 F or below weather. Purty sure my car wouldn't have even started anyways... so meh. :whistling:

I have to agree with this. "Snow Day" is a bizarre and alien concept. It was about 40o today. It was in Celsius. And you are crazy.


I imagine it gets them out of school though. Nothing like impending destruction of your entire town as an excuse to get out of doing your homework.

I'd be wondering how much more crap my country can go through this year.

I've got a snow day due to icy roads. That means no school and no shoveling snow!


Badum ch-!

Snowy days are for pussies. Go back to school like a man.

Um . . . no!

It was nothing like I thought. Way worse. 3 ft of snow is on the road where i live, I literally cannot leave my driveway. There is a 5 ft drift at some point. Two lane roads are one lane..only the biggest of streets seem plowed and it's still snowing.

We just got 8 inches of snow. Time to go drive in it. <_<

Snow day for myself as well.

Luckily, I already finished all of my homework, so now I have the whole day to relax and play some video games.

Probably finish Knights of the Nine again... yeah!

Well, my family and me dug ourselves out. The only problem is that the city has yet to come around with the plows to clear the alleys and streets.

Yeah even if we did dig ourselves out, our roads are completely unusable.

Rio Grand valley forecasted for snow for thursday and friday!?!?!??!?!?!?!?! the [censored]! this is unheard of!!!!!! this will be the second time in my life i will see snow if it indeed does snow. and its going to sleet tomorrow and friday. :blink:

I've never heard of my college closing for a snowday, but today is one!

Mine called it off a day in advance which was weird. They got 12+ inches there though from lake effect snow. We only got about 8 and I live about 35 minutes away.

While not technically a snow day, I get to work from home during days like this.. Hell, I get to work from home quite a bit now that I think about it! :celebration:

Don't you have snow plows or something? Something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEvS-xHTjsg
One or two feet of snow is no reason to skip school and I've never heard of snow days. Maybe if it got cold, I might have skipped school myself back in the day. Under -30C would have been too cold for me and we still had to go to school at under -20C. I did anyways. Sports class (or P.E.) skiing might have been replaced with some indoor sport on that day though.

Just finished shovel, which is a pain in the butt cause our driveway is so huge. My dad is still outside shoveling the parts noone ever walks on. Needs to be perfect or something :rolleyes:

Its supposed to snow tomorrow in HOUSTON!!!!! wow hell has frozen over people

I looked outside. Lot of snow.

I'm just waiting for his big crack of thunder from the heavens and your entire subcontinent sinks to the bottom of the sea. Someone must be mad at you all. :flame:

I've had about 10 snow days this year so far.

After the morning of digging pathways around the yard and clearing the driveway, my dad got stuck in a snow drift in another town. He was pushed out by a guy who was part of the SWAT and tactical arms training in the area, and was driving a H2 hummer. However, to make matters go from bad to worse, the SWAT guy also got stuck in that same snowdrift, and my dad had to call me to bring shovels to dig the guy out. Couldn't pull his car out, as it was too entrenched in the snow, so it took about an hour for my dad, the SWAT guy, and me to free his car.

I expect to dig out 1 or 2 more cars by the end of the day, due to my brother's friends trying to go over snow mounds (they're not bright), or my mom or dad getting stuck again.

No work for me again tonight as they still haven't plowed my roads that are filled with snow. 3-5 ft deep in places. Oh well!

I feel lucky, where I live it's been almost all ice. there have been lots of reports of power outages here though. I was fortunate enough not to lose power, but did lose cable and internet this morning. Luckily it was back on when I got home from work this afternoon.

Forum withdrawal really svcks.
