"snow storm"

Why is it that they always say we are going to get this huge snow storm and then we get barely nothing?

Re: "snow storm"

  • Because the media is more hyped up than a 10 year old on a snow day ;)

     

  • To warn all the decent drivers out there that those who cannot drive properly in snow will be on the road. Therefore, bring your patience in the car with you in the morning!
  • We got about 3" of snow if not a bit more...the rain did make it sucky this morning but now it's just slush on the road...

    You should have seen the line ups for tire changes, salt, shovels etc.
    yesterday/last night. People are $tupid!

    This is very late in the year for us to be getting our "first" snow fall...if they didn't already have the items from last year what the heck were they waiting for this year?!?!

    DUH...

  • When driving home last night I thought it was going to be a big storm because there was already an inch... but it hardly snowed over night!! The weather guy is not always right!! lol
  • It's coming.  It's been snowing here like crazy.  I have shoveled my deck twice already.  I will be going out with the snowblower to do the path to the front door and the driveway before DH comes home.  The weather report says 35-40 over the next 48 hours.  I am tempted to turn on my VHF radio and get the Coast gurad Weather forcast.  See what they say.

  • You always get so much more that us Sammy. I think our storms bypass us and head directly towards you!

    I think we got 1cm last night and they say we should get another 5 tonight. I don't believe it.

  • They warned us here in Edmonton over the weekend- and they were right. We ended up wtih 35 cm on the ground in two days, and we've been sitting in a deep freeze ever since. This is the first day we've gotten above -20 since last Friday :D

    We got a little bit more out here in ajax. It didnt stop until about 11 and then that's when the rain started.

  • My parents got about 10 cm. I havent been outside all day! I hibernated!

    My (other) parents said it isnt too bad. I made them walk to my apartment because I didnt want to go outside! I dont know how much I believe them though because they are used to all of it in Russia.

    The rain washed everything out anyways!

  • I work with a girl who freaks out everytime the weather network forecasts more than a cm of snow! We got hardly anything here, but I know a lot of my relatives up north (Sudbury area) had a snow day today.

  • We didn't get much here, I live near Woodstock. Mostly rain, actually. Normally when there are snow warnings we get a whole bunch but nada. I was actually hoping to get skiing next week so I might be S.O.L :)

  • we have a decent covering now, but not really news worthy.

  • Ottawa got a bunch of snow, probably about the 20-30cm that was forecast, and no rain to wash it away. Schools were closed yesterday. DH shoveled the driveway 3 times and there's maybe another 1/2 inch for me to do this morning.
