Blizzards are fun! Bweeeeee!

[Toric]

There were blizzards in Oklahoma today. Oklahoma doesn't get blizzards. For the past two days the temperature was constantly in the 70's with no precipitation, but starting last night and continuing as I type I've gotten a steady supply of this.

Picture's a little fuzzy on some of them, but it makes for a neat effect. I've seen cars with snow halfway up their wheels. I know people in other areas probably think this is nothing too uncommon, but yeah, this just doesn't happen here. Good news is my college classes were canceled two days in a row!

I want snow!

[Dakata]

I want snow too!

Stupid Michigan. It just keeps raining...and raining...and not snowing. *Pouts* Rain's stewpid.

[Aisha deCabre]

Bah...for some reason it's a little warm here right now for snow...I wouldn't mind living somewhere in which the snow can get high enough to actually play with snow forts and snowball fights and stuff.  I love snow.   

I like the second picture best, by the way.  It looks dark and somber but the snow and the light together seems to give it a warmer touch.

[Elader Arkon]

Yeah, them Oklahoma people got tired of their blizzard and sent it on over to terrorize the state of Missouri (which, when pronounced by a southerner, becomes the word "Misery" -an adequate definition for this state).

We got a half inch of ice that is currently being covered up in snow...

[Jim Halisstrad]

Northwest Arkansas reporting here, we got snow on the ground.  I repeat snow is on the ground!



Not much mind you, but enough that I can call into work

[Drake Manaweilder]

We got freezing rain up here.
on the - side: can't go outside, well i could but i would likely slip and crack my head.
on the + side: NO SCHOOL!

[Aridas]

Nothing here in canada >_>

[Vidar]

Over here it's freakishly warm for the time of the year, and at the same time I'm freezing my rear off. No sign of snow, but there's plenty rain in the air. I swear, those clouds are waiting for me to go outside before they let loose with the downpoor. 

[Elader Arkon]

Nothing here in canada >_>

That's almost freaky.

[Aridas]

Nothing here in canada >_>

That's almost freaky.

God's just trying to piss us off. We'd get cold weather, and then it would get warm so we'd get rain, then it'd be cold again right after.

The second picture looks post-apocalyptic

[Alondro]

Hah!  It's 70 here in New Jersey!  Three cheers and an SUV for global warming!   My house will soon be super-expensive subtropical beachfront property!  Bwah ha ha ha!

Except it will be on the very wet side of the beach, and your SUV won't float.

[DigitalMan]

Dammit, here in Ohio it's just pouring rain. Lots and lots and lots of rain.

The second picture looks post-apocalyptic

Cripes, it does.

On a random side note, huzzah for the Sony DSC series.

[TheGreyRonin]

No snow in South Dakota, at least not my part. Ever since the early first burst or two, it's been semi-warm and dry as a bone.

*shrugs* At least I don't have to shovel yet.

[Gareeku]

I love snow when i don't have to drive in it. Snow=ice=ice on roads. Eep.

[Tapewolf]

The second picture looks post-apocalyptic

..and here's a photo of the apocalypse itself:

Here's hoping we get some decent snow this year so I can wander around the white hills again..

[Aridas]

That pic looks like something out of one of those old stop motion puppet movie things.. like that rudolph one that they keep showing every year.

[ITOS]

I love snow. Too bad this seems to be the mildest winter since the 19th century or something... It's no good Christmas without snow...

Good news is my college classes were canceled two days in a row!

For a few inches of snow? Bah! Weaklings! In my days... *rants*

Assuming you meant mine, it's actually an overexposure taken using an Ennovation FlyCam which I was writing a driver interface layer for at the time.  The old Casio JK-710DC could also be misused artistically but not in quite the same way. 

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Looks more like the apocalypse incoming...

.. at least to me. :-)

[Stygian]

...trains were cancelled last winter over here I believe, and still the schools wouldn't close...

Either way, Sweden is warm right now. And I hate it. We need some sort of "Day After Tomorrow-agent" to release a bit into the air...

Nah, we're on a bit of a hilll, which is why we never get floods where i m, plus Country Lakes is pretty much on the central 'spine' of the Jersey Pine Barrens.  All the streams on one side flow east, the streams on the other flow west.  But I must get MORE land!  And I need to buy up all the hills... *thinks*  And Mount Holly too.... The Rancocas Creek will become a lagoon and much of the Delaware River flood plain will be tidal marshland.  Camden will be under water!  Bwah ha ha ha!

[Toric]

The morning after. These pictures turned out much better than the evening ones.

Wow, I kinda expected to hear more reports of snow. Instead, there's warm weather in Canada. I gotta say it was a fun experience, watching people walk through the snow only to have their footprints disappear completely within thirty minutes. And yes, woot for Sony DSC!

[xHaZxMaTx]

Yowza, that's some deep snow.

This reminds me of the Calvin and Hobbes strip where Calvin makes three snowmen in front of his dad's car, one of them with their head on the ground as if it were hit by the car.

[bill]

I want snow. It hasn't snowed for all November, highly unusual for up here.

[Tapewolf]

Yowza, that's some deep snow.

Deepest I ever saw was a drift somewhere around Swindon.  It was about 12ft high at the top (and I was about 12 years old, I think).  My brother and I assumed it was a snow-covered heap of gravel - until we tried to climb it, of course.  Boots full of snow

My Dad had a whole set of those.  They were brilliant.  I'll have to see if I can find them again..

[Drake Manaweilder]

Nothing here in canada >_>

Wrong, i'm in Ontario. Looking out my window I can see about 10cm of ice pellets n' snow.

[Aridas]

Well then get into my part of Ontario
