Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 It's been snowing non-stop for a week now, but nothing is settling. Every fucking inch of Indiana is covered in ice, however. Bought 400 pounds of rock salt and 400 pounds of sand yesterday. I ain't playin' this winter.

Jaxxson Mayhem Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 Bricks with ice on em are the fucking worst..... especially when the entire sidewalk throughout the whole place is made of said bricks.
gWIL Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 It's been snowing non-stop for a week now, but nothing is settling. Every fucking inch of Indiana is covered in ice, however. Not so true about all of Indiana. Down here in Evansvilleit hasn't been bad at all. In fact during the the day Friday was literally t-shirt weather and people were out jogging with no shirt on and suck. It's cooler than that now but no sign of snow or ice. I'm going back hone to South Bend and I'm sure we're going to get some lake effect, ugh.
Lord of The Curry Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 Toronto is getting dumped on pretty nicely at the moment but it seems pussified compared to some of the shit ya'll Americans are getting dealt.
Kinetic Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 Been snowing like a motherfucker here for about 24 hours. I wanted to jump off the roof after that miserable Tampa Bay game, but feared that the foot of snow on the ground would lessen the impact of my dramatic death leap.
Vampiro69 Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 Last week the entire state was under a blizzard warning the entire weekend. We had a foot of snow, 30 mph winds, temps at -20 with windchills at around -50. Plus my heater went out on Saturday night at around 3am.
Guest Vitamin X Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 This is how some of us are dealing with the snow. Portland's first annual cross country ski race, the Stumptown Birkebeiner.
Timmy8271 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 Never seen snow in my life. Got to love the 80 degree weather we had today. No offense.
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 Snow wasn't as much of a motherfucker here as wind and ice was this weekend. After the windchill it was -4 degrees today. Some pics I took on I-57 around Kankakee:
Star Ocean 3 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 There are two places in LA where I've seen snow this past week: Studio City and Long Beach, just a little play area. Someone must have carted some snow over to surprise people.
Cheech Tremendous Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 The Pacific Northwest is a fucking mess right now. Us west coasters aren't used to this sort of weather.
Guest Czecherbear Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 Cool, now there are two ways that Portland is blindingly white! Mellows, what were you doing in Kankakee?
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 Mellows, what were you doing in Kankakee? Driving from Chicago to Champaign.
Lord of The Curry Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 The head of our provincial police board is putting forth a motion to make drivers pay for damages incurred during accidents in bad weather much like a number of states havce. This falls under "Wait...this wasn't already a law?".
Guest Vitamin X Posted December 22, 2008 Report Posted December 22, 2008 Cool, now there are two ways that Portland is blindingly white! First post from Czech in while that's made me . Kudos. I'm going to plagiarize this (although verbally) in conversation tomorrow.
hyperchord24 Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 It's been snowing pretty steadily in upstate NY since Friday.
PUT THAT DICK IN MY MOUTH! Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 I got my car stuck backing out of the driveway today. I was in a hurry and wasn't really looking where I was going and backed right into a 2-foot snow drift. Fuck the upper midwest.
Thoth Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 I am posting in here because I have never stood in shin-deep snow. Actually, I've never stood in snow. Or seen snow. I think I win.
Guest Vitamin X Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 I guess I can't post here anymore because today, after not having stepped foot out of the house since Friday, I went outside and realized my entire neighborhood- and pretty much most of downtown Portland- is covered is shin to knee deep snow. Pretty fun, kind of wish it would happen more often, although walking uphill in boots while carrying shit is a bitch.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 My driveway is now completely clear. I'm conducting an experiment: I put down about 150lbs of salt. I'm going to see if there's any preventative benefit to doing this the next time we get shit on. I'm guessing that the atmosphere would normally have enough moisture in it to react with and dissolve the salt, BUT, it's very dry! Will certainly be interesting.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted December 23, 2008 Report Posted December 23, 2008 It's 55 degrees right now, with tomorrow's high expected to be 76. Brisk.
Burning Pirate Ship Sex Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Fuck my town; it's 6am, and all the main roads are still covered in about 6 inches of dense snow. I nearly died about 5 times on my way to the gas station to buy smokes, and I was going 20km/h in first
Jaxxson Mayhem Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 There was so much fucking ice everywhere today.
Twisted Intestine Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Fuck my town; it's 6am, and all the main roads are still covered in about 6 inches of dense snow. I nearly died about 5 times on my way to the gas station to buy smokes, and I was going 20km/h in first People who drive through six inches of snow to buy smokes must have a high mortality rate.
Burning Pirate Ship Sex Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 Don't you have another inspirational figure to kill, Tbay?
Guest Czecherbear Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 It's apparently too snowy and icy for anyone to get to my aunt's house for Christmas Eve today, so now I'm sitting here on the Internet with you assholes.
geniusMoment Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 57 degrees in Cincy, the best christmas present I'll get this year
Maztinho Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 It's like high-50's but overcast here, which results in the worst combination of everything. It's warm enough that the hardpacked snow in my parking lot melts, but not warm enough to melt it completely away so it makes the gray sludge of doom that gives me zero traction at all. The management of my apartments stopped salting the parking lot because someone complained that it was ruining their car, but if the asshole drives ANYPLACE they are going to get salt flipped on their car.
