You know that massive storm currently raping the east coast right now? Yeah, I just drove in it for eight hours from D.C. to central Jersey. There were accidents, white-outs, moronic drivers(a lot of them) but I made it through, thanks in no small part to my four-wheel drive pickup. Ah, four-wheel drive, how I love thee.

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.

..is that why it's been raining so much?

I hear it when I try to go to bed, but I'm too afraid to go outside to see what the hell's going on.

It took me an hour to get to the mall.. normally a twenty minute drive.

Luckily, I realized that the mall opened at 12, and I got up round 11.

Daymn.. glad you made it safe.

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.

aye, that 12"++ snow dildo is sweeping pretty much right across all of NJ. I just shoveled the front steps to keep the snow drifting to a minimum. By the time i got to the bottom of the walk, the staircase was white again.

Hopefully it keeps up. I could use a day off from work.

Now I kind of feel guilty that we only got a tiny bit of snow that melted away almost right away.

Kind of.. but not so much really.

It's been snowing all day today. Think it snowed all yesterday too, but I'm not sure. I haven't been outside since Thursday except Friday night when I went to the hospital cause I was sick.

LOL, little snowstorm comes around and they cancell classes??

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.

I'm in Ohio and it's been snowing all day. Did I ever mention that I hate snow? I don't care as much when I don't have to go anywhere, but I'm going to have to go to the doctor soon, and that means...uh...there's too much snow. It's supposed to get into the upper 30s after Monday, so maybe I'll get lucky and it'll all melt.

We got..not snow..but FOUR INCHES OF ICE!!!!

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

If freezing rain is falling, and you have to go to work in the morning, and are unfortunate enough to not have a garage:

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.

Ok, I just came back from a fruitless expedition through at least a foot of snow on the ground only to find that my two morning classes were cancelled, as no e-mails were sent, but the professors couldn't make it. I just keep thinking, "I woke up for this?!" Oh well, least I get to avoid taking the International Politics exam I had been studying for, I just hope that my Japanese prof won't make it here either.

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)

You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

Just called my Japanese Prof's voice mail, heard his message that because of the weather he can't make it. Woo hoo! That means no classes for me at all today! I love snow.
