I went swimming today. I will not admit to the snow beast. WHO LET THIS BITCH OUT?

No snow in Orlando - I spent the day in shorts and a tank-top. And it's still warm tonight.

1010 WINS is saying it's bigger than the blizzard of 1996.

That reminds me...

What are the ontological implications of the fact that we're supposed to get 4-8 inches of snow tomorrow? I'm guessing it means that Nietzsche was right. Either that or God is very angry at the moment.

It is a completely depressing and devastating notion, more snow! Again! I can't even joke about this.

I know. I'm supposed to see the Rockets play the Pistons tonight but it's in jeopardy now cuz the Palace is so far away and the thought of driving through a blizzard is...... *crying* Why?? Why??

wow, three threads about snow. does that mean we're all amazingly boring that we have to talk about the weather this much?

colette (a2lette), Wednesday, 28 January 2004 16:06 (twenty years ago) link

snow is great though!

ken c (ken c), Wednesday, 28 January 2004 16:08 (twenty years ago) link

This is THE ORIGINAL SNOW THREAD.

I have yet to see its rivals.

the snowfox, Wednesday, 28 January 2004 16:09 (twenty years ago) link

Snow is only good if it's fresh.

sunny successor (katharine), Thursday, 12 October 2006 19:49 (seventeen years ago) link

dude, we got all kinds of snow. i mean, it melted already, but we've been getting snow since september.


gbx (skowly), Thursday, 12 October 2006 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Random light snow flurries in southeastern Minnesota yesterday and today. And it's damn cold. I'm not ready.

No, alas, I'm wrong....

Jesse, Tuesday, 20 November 2007 00:42 (sixteen years ago) link

We haven't had snow here in years. Used to get one decent snowfall every winter.

Rock Hardy, Tuesday, 20 November 2007 00:48 (sixteen years ago) link

Where are you? (I'm in Chicago)

Jesse, Tuesday, 20 November 2007 12:15 (sixteen years ago) link

45% chance of snow for Thanksgiving!!!

And "wintry mix" for tomorrow!

Jesse, Tuesday, 20 November 2007 18:08 (sixteen years ago) link

Yeah, I was going to drive to Milwaukee on Thxgvng but now I might go the night before. People drive crazy during that first snow.

Jordan, Tuesday, 20 November 2007 18:09 (sixteen years ago) link

I'm in NE Mississippi. North of the MS/TN state line they seem to get plenty (Knoxvillains correct me if I'm rong), and south of here along a Jackson-Meridian line they seem to get a little each year because there's more Gulf moisture in the air, but we're in an in-between zone that hasn't seen more than a few flakes in years.

Six inches of snow in Hertfordshire, according to my dad.

James Mitchell, Tuesday, 28 October 2008 21:34 (fifteen years ago) link

And there's snow in Dalston and Mile End, though not six inches of it.

James Mitchell, Tuesday, 28 October 2008 23:30 (fifteen years ago) link

No snow out in Fulham last night but High Wycombe was drenched in it from what I could see on the News so I'm glad I don't have to do the Oxford Tube run any more.

A bit of sleet in town counted as the first snow London had seen in October since 1934. Following an almost unyieldingly wet year.

How does this equate with global warming?

synths and drum machines (e.g. Simmonds) (Marcello Carlin), Wednesday, 29 October 2008 09:54 (fifteen years ago) link

early snow = global warming
late snow = global warming
no snow = global warming
wet summers = global warming
dry hot summers = global warming

is pretty much how it's been covered for the past ten years.

slowing of the gulf stream due to Arctic ice melt if it has anything to do with it at all this could be, and probably is, just a fluctuation.

I thought we were having the bizarre (and impossible?) combination of thunder storm and snowstorm last night but the 'thunder' was just fucking guy fawkes ponces.

Sir, are you calling 911 to complain about traffic? (G00blar), Wednesday, 29 October 2008 09:59 (fifteen years ago) link

There was lightning and thunder last night, but when it was raining although AFAIK there is nothing to say you can't have a thunderstorm that produces snow.

something less awful (Ed), Wednesday, 29 October 2008 10:02 (fifteen years ago) link

No ice when coming out this morning either; it was freezing but otherwise completely dry and perfectly normal. Weird how SW6/SW10 missed out on it but everyone else got it.

Weird that our biggest snow so far this season was early November.

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 19 January 2016 20:30 (eight years ago) link

My poor K (4 yrs old) thinks from books that there's snow on the ground all the time in winter and it only melts in spring, so she's confused and thinks it isn't winter yet. The other night she tried to make snow angels in that little dusting we got, it was so sweet.

Bread, milk, and toilet paper! BREAD MILK AND TOILET PAPER!!!!!

...Sorry, I grew up in the DC area, and that's our knee-jerk reaction to the word "snow." It's positively a folkway.

Diana Fire (j.lu), Wednesday, 20 January 2016 22:14 (eight years ago) link

that makes sense to me as weather.com (p much never right) appeared to be downgrading this to 3-6in for NYC early today.

hope sweetums get a proper angel made, m.a.
