In Ann Arbor we had 3 nights of rain that froze, ..it was like 30 degrees and pouring rain… it was weird…. so all the trees look like they’re made of glass… and my new car is dripping with icicles.

Thanks for the suggestion Craig! we’ll see about that, not sure what the color availability is right now, that will affect our ability to add them.

Hahaha, sledding accidents? People here in SoCal can drive through blanket-thick fog yet flip when there’s rain and everything goes to hell when snow comes around (perhaps it’s only because hell freezes over before the first snowflake can be seen!). Ahh, the good old days of Idaho, when black ice was expected and four feet of snow just meant you needed to rev it a little more. :D Isn’t weather interesting?

Hahaha that does sound like a good Portland motto. Here in Eugene we’ve had our (hopefully only) dose of snow, and I’m already tired of the stuff. It’s no fun when you have to go to class anyway, and definitely no fun when it stays for a week longer than it should. At least by now my car doesn’t have ice on it anymore.

The reason snow in PDX is dangerous is becuase when the temp reaises just a little bit and then drops the snow next to the asphalt melts and become ice. It’s not hyperbole, it is dangerous.

Here in NYC we are now experiencing what I consider our third day of winter this year. We have had no snow.. and every day this season with exception of the three I speak of had 50’s-70 degree weather. I love snow and I adore the chill of winter… I hope some of that snow over there comes our way pretty soon. Vel and I are growing tired of balmy weather and long for the opportunity to wear socks in layers and cute mittens.

We usually get a lot more snow than we have this year. And it’s funny, you would think people would be good at driving in it by now, but all the time on the first couple days there are stupid accidents. I remember a few years ago people were sliding through other people’s yards into stop signs and sliding all over the road, I saw three minor accidents in the mile drive to the bus stop or work (wherever it was I was going that day) and it was all so funny to me. I’m not the best at driving in snow but it really wasn’t that bad, and you’re supposed to go slow in my small community to begin with.
