John-Edmonton take it back :ranting:

:rant: You know we Georgian's can't drive in snow deeper than 1/4 inch :blush: the moisture came from the gulf but that nasty cold came
from your neighborhood :canadaflag: :cry: I was on the road for 30 hrs. :nopity: so take it back pleeeeeeeese! come on spring :bouncy:
 
lol surf n turf, I was wonderin why it got warm here all the sudden :rofl: you be careful on them 1/2 inch snow covered roads lol, cheers and safe drivin.
 
Actually easier to drive in snow 12 inches deep at temps of -20 than snow
of a few inches deep with temps hovering at freezing/melting point.
Saw those traffic jams on TV a real nightmare in the making.
Hope its all gone soon for you to get out and dig the dirt.
 
Yeah...what Joel said...that ice on the roads is nothing to fool with...I've only been in two wrecks in my life and both were on the ice like you had to deal with down there...30hrs is a long time to sit in a cab!

Snow is water, water is essential to life!

You can have the frozen water, I'll take mine in a salty, liquid form!
 
Man, that looks cold John. Some guys from our unit in Germany went skiing in Sweden or Switzerland and they had them take a sauna and then thru them outside in the snow followed by a hot shower and they said it was wonderful. I don't know how much alcohol they had consumed, tho. Actually, the ice and the fact that 1 million drivers hit the road at the same time may have had something to do with the traffic jam in Atlanta and they had the same problem in Alabama. It is true we don't usually have to drive in ice and snow in the southern states, but if I had the choice of driving in it or staying home, I would stay home. I had to do a welfare check on my older brother and there was still snow and some ice on the roads, but thankfully the interstate had so much traffic and they had put sand on the local bridges and gravel & salt on the interstate bridges and I had a safe 60-70 mile commute and older brother was okay. It's 57 degrees and the sun is shining and I should be dirt fishing, but I have to wait on a delivery driver who is overdue. HH.
 
We got 1/2 inch of ice Tuesday morning and it shut the whole city down...for 1/2 the day. It was gone by noon, but there were around 250 crashes in Austin. Snow OK, Ice bad, bad, bad!!
 
Yeah, up here where it gets cold, long (But thank the Lord, not as cold as John sees), they get to having car races on the ice of the frozen lakes. I understand where John gets his heavy motivation from in the summer, he has a 6 month winter. Artie
PS or as they say in Maine, there's 4 seasons-almost winter, winter, was just winter, and construction
 
This just confirms that our moderator is as mad as a hatter! :crazy:
 
I'm glad I live in the South. We only have to endure weather like this once in a while and the people up north and the far north like John have it all the time.
 
They freaked out here on the Texas Gulf Coast, again. The people in the building I work didn't come to work and the people I work for sent me home two hours early. Just because there was a chance it might get cold enough for the non-existent water on the one bridge I cross to freeze.
 
Wow......such little snow up here wouldn't even stir up a conversation about snow. But......we also have some yahoos up here who speed under those conditions and get/cause accidents. Of course, we get this type of weather annually, so most of the drivers use caution and do just fine.
 
Absolutely correct.....

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me then a frontal-lobotomy:buds:

Beer makes you smart...it made Bud Wiser!
 
That sauna thing is interesting. Rolling in the snow is COLD! But not have as bad as getting back in the hot sauna or hot tub.
