snow

Post by monkeynautt »

Snow in October is evil and we got half an inch of it. It's also -10degreesC outside! :( And it's suppose to stay cold for at least a week. That means winter coats under halloween costumes. And the weatherman said this was another El Nino year. yah right.

All weve been getting is rain lots and lots of rain and im sick of it. I'm sick of getting soaked at school everyday going between classes. Then again we had verry little rain this year and we need it. We dont get much snow here in Virginia though.

Looks like the snow is here to stay. The first batch melted but now we have at least 3 inches if not more. it's not cold though. it's staying around -5 degrees C. I think that's in the 20s F.

Well it will likely be cold enough here for snow this week but we dont have a cloud in the sky and not even a slim chance of snow this week.

We're in the middle of a two year drought thanks to global warming. It's been snowing for a few days now. We got half a foot in 24 hours. In total we have gotten about a foot since October. We usually have close to double that.

Anybody who wants to see some snow should come to Michigan we generally have LOTS of it during the winter months.... It comes and goes though, we dont have much now but by next week we ought to have at least a couple of inches......

Well most likely the snow we got the other day will be it for the year. We rarely get more than one decent snow fall per winter.

It's been snowing for two days now and it's suppose to snow all week. By this time we usually have more than two feet of snow. I think we have had around just over a foot. If the storm continues we'll have a few feet by the end of the week. It's not that cold though. Minus 20 C with no wind. It's not that bad.

It's still snowing. The roads are horrible and slippery. It's going to snow until at least Wednesday. It's still not that cold out though. Not much wind. around -20c still. The snow is about a foot to a foot and a half deep in some places if not more.
