It is just slushy frozen water. You won't melt, but the snow might. Hell we keep going with over a foot. I had to come home once when it snowing. We were putting metal siding on a building and we had about 4 inches of snow on our shoulders, so we called it a day. Another time 2 of us put a 24 x 36 building up in one week in a foot of snow and the high for the week was 22 degrees F. I guess if you are not used to it then that may be a different story. But 2 inches. That shouldn't effect anything. Awards

We got four inches today and we have already had over 70 inches this winter and not a single snow day for the kids. We just drive right on through the stuff. Does help to have 4-wheel drive!

I can't stand the heat, let alone the humidity. Everyone that I have talked to that visited that region just hates the weather. We only get 90-100 maybe 7-10 days a year. Rarely is it over that. I really hate being that warm, it just kills me. And with my health I wouldn't be able to deal with it. So I guess we just get used to where we live and deal with it. There is no perfect place to live. And to each his own. We probably all bitch about some aspect of where we live. But rarely do we do anything about it. There is a place in Spain that the lowest ever was 50 and the highest was 80. Now that would be damn nice. I don't know anywhere like that over here. And it only gets 22 inches of rain. We get 42 inches. I can't remember the name of the place. But it was green year around. It rained a little every few days. Sounds like paradise to me. But it was like stepping back in time 100 years. Very primitive. Awards

It's cold and snowy here too... -25 this morning and about 8 new inches of powder, it's beautiful. But I just got off the phone with a good friend who lives in North Dakota and he said the snow has been falling since early yesterday morning and it's now above the knees. The temperature is dropping below zero and the north wind is increasing. His wife has done nothing but look through the kitchen window all day. He says that if it gets much worse, he may have to let her in. Awards

Down here it's freak out central, and i guess rightly so....no plows, a few salt and sand trucks and a lot of worrying when the temp will rise to get rid of it. Awards
