So yeah, if anyone was out driving in that shit, my had goes off to you. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go wrap my knees.
Oh, and here's the ass-kicker: classes are cancelled tomorrow, so I rushed home for...ROR NOTHING.

I'm pissed. I wanted snow.
Luckily, I realized that the mall opened at 12, and I got up round 11.
LoZ:MQ is mine!
And yes, there are some stupidass people out there..
Hope you took moments to be amused at those who drove out in it without 4-wheel drive.

...yeah, li'l bit. But it was fun while I was doing it. All that snow sure kept my attention rivted on the road.
If you've ever driven on I-95 through Maryland north of Baltimore, you know there's this massive bridge which travels over what I would surmise is what empties out into the Chesapeake Bay. When I drove over it, I glanced to the side as I am wont to do in crossing, because it usually offers a cool view of a sharp cliffside rising up out of the river. Well, much to my surprise, I saw nothing. Just gray/white. I couldn't even see the water. I felt like I was in the that Stephen King story, "The Mist." All that was missing was the giant mutant alien insects.

Hopefully it keeps up. I could use a day off from work.
Kind of.. but not so much really.

Up here, the last time I can remember a school closure (whole school, not just busses), we were in the middle of a blizzard of snow and freezing rain.
Most they do around here is cancell the bus routes, and even then, no more than half of the people don't show up.
Anyways. Good to hear you made it back safely. Especially with asshole drivers around...in THIS weather. Last time it snowed like this, I saw a guy pulled over for speeding....WTF would someone speed when there's half a foot of snow on the road!>? Just asking to get in an accident

LOL, last time they did a full school closure it was back in grade school.
Most I remember from High School was our 2 week teacher strike.
all of which I just had to DIG off my car so I'll be able to get out in the morning at 5 am. All of the roads are one huge sheet of ice. Hopefully not much more will fall tonight :/
Weee.. winter
NOT
Now she's snowed in at her place and has no work tomorrow......and I'm stuck up here....

Take an old sheet. Place it on your windsheild, and close the doors on the sides. Tuck them over the wiperblades, then back down under.
In the morning, take off the sheet, and you have a perfect, icefree, scraping OW OW MY ARM HURTSfree windsheild to drive to work with.

Technically, NJ is in the middle of a blizzard right now and the governor declared a state of emergency so that schools wouldn't be open. Otherwise, I suspect a few schools would be open now.
Delphi, I've tried that once in the past. It didn't help went the sheet became frozen to my car. Was more of an annoyance getting the dammed frozen sheet off my car than scraping some ice off windshield.

And God knows up to four feet of snow, declared States of Emergency in multiple states, people dying from the cold and airports being completely closed down across multiple states hardly counts as a reason to not go to school!
You are so much cooler than everyone because it's cold where you live!(teehee, i make pun)
In other news, my truck loves the snow as much as my VW did.
