Snow! ...everywhere!!

[Bluhman]

Yeah, January was pretty ridiculous. Nevertheless, my school never closes. The world could be ending and we'd still be open. Even during the most ridiculous one, all we got was a 2 hours of classes canceled in the morning. Fortunately, the professors themselves were reasonable and a lot of them, including some of mine at certain times, canceled. Other times, I just didn't get out of bed, especially for one 50-minute class.

There was one time where my highschool was the only one that didn't close down for a snowday. The geeky morning news show we had directly addressed that. Though, a later day, I guess the superintendents decided to have weird mercy and cancel school like 2 days afterwards, but still. Doesn't that sort of defeat the purpose of snowdays?

Been meaning to ask, anyone experience thunder snow? I was hoping with all these storms, I'd atleast see that happen. But alas, it didn't.

[Prpl_Mage]

And what exactly is thunder snow?

[fruckert]

Thunderstorm with snow?

And no, I've never had something like that happen.

[Felix-0]

doesn't thunderstorms require warm air?
Which would melt the snow?

That's what I thought. It either needs to be warm air or moist. Winters are completely dry over here.

I'm kind of pissed.
All of northwest Louisiana got snow.
What did Ruston get? Cold weather with wet rain. It probably snowed for about five minutes last night.
Stupid ****ing snow day. I feel like I got cheated.

[drenrin2120]

Thunder snow does happen. Just rarely cuz the conditions have to be just right. And you'd figure since the apocalypse is nearing... Welllll

We've been getting a lot of rain with the snow so it is quite possible for thunder as well HOWEVER...no thunder in NYC.

So we're about to get about a million or something tonight that will most likely cause blackouts and other various catastrophes around the city for a few days or something.

Huzzah! No snow on the forecast, and the temperatures are finally getting up to the 30's-40's! Seriously, it's been in the 10-20 range, sometimes lower, since the first week of December. That's extremely cold for where I am.

...There are still piles of snow outside my apartment building and a good sheet of ice over everything, though. It's been days since our last snowstorm, and the roads still aren't entirely de-iced. I'm glad to see this winter finally coming to an end, though. It's been long, cold, and miserable. It doesn't help that my heat's not working.

Dear Snow Gods, please drop sleet all over the place and get class canceled tomorrow. Love, Val

Your heathen gods will fail! Perhaps if you'd shown your faith in the one true God, things might actually have worked!

Blahblahblah, something Christian.

[Valiere]

Dammit, you're right. Class wasn't canceled.

Ok, so snow wasn't as heavy as predicted. It is still a fairly large amount.
