    I don't care if we get snow. I just don't want any more fog. That damp, moldy "air" wreaked havoc on my sinuses for the past several days. :(

    So it was said that the snow was suppose to start at 4am. So i figured i can go in for half shift tonight. Get to work at 7pm last night, little flakes that didnt stick. Hour in and it starts to pour...and sticks. Within an hour its ~2 inches. Now its ~5 inches. Now im stuck at work waiting til end of shift to get a ride home now.

    Snow plow plowed the inner loop at work but doing so made a giant hill into the parking lot road :/

    I think that this storm would be the most that this area has seen this winter. Yesterday evening around 8 pm, I had a bit of trouble getting home and I have good winter driving skills after living in Colorado for 6.5 years.

    The later is a January I can deal with. :thumb

    This past week was tons of snow on the ground...now, potentially, the Pacific Northwest will have a Pineapple express on top of the snow and ice. This means that there is a good potential of flooding...I guess this region just cannot catch a break.

    SMH, it's been raining daily for a couple of weeks and still more to come next week, while I'm okay with the warmer weather we've been having, we could do without the rain... some places are starting to flood again... AGAIN. Dang. Guess it beats snow and ice tho. :D

    Well Portland's own Unipiper (a man using a Darth Vader mask and kilt playing a bagpipe that blows flames while riding a unicycle) did it too lol

    Not sure if he did it during the freezing ice times but snow for sure.

    CA is in the midst of a small heat wave, at least for this time of year. We had highs in the low 80's for the last several days. I want my Winter back!

    It's SUPPOSED to be Autumn now, but I guess someone forget to tell Australia because we've been havin' 32 degree days non-stop. I walk to and back from school. I've had enough summer for now!

    Hmm... where I'm located (in TN) they talked about nothing else... a snow flurry here and there, 'spittin' snow' for a while, but wouldn't amount to much. Just been seriously windy and cold here. Just thankful I'm not in the North/Northeast of any kind. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

    I honestly hate the snow. PA got hit HARD with it. My work had to close early. Good thing I had off. Though I still worried about my co-workers.

    The snow was hell to clear out. It's bad enough that we paid a random guy to clear our driveway with his skid loader cause we were outnumbered by the amount we got. I hope this all goes away soon. I want Spring to get here. And I'm sure my father doesn't want to work in the snow. Actually I hope he doesn't cause he's had some pretty close calls with his health and stuff.


    Btw if you have to travel anywhere and it's snowing or there's snow on the roads please be careful. There might be black ice on it.


    Hope everyone is staying safe and warm. :)  IMG_1151.JPG
