Bah Humbug! No one in their right mind would miss snow, hail, etc.!

Private school, living on campus, never a snow day! Just a little time off to shovel the "junque."

Lived, and I mean lived, in Mesa for three years. The only snow, other than mountain peaks, we saw were "snowbirds." :approve:

Summers can be pretty brutal here, were you here on June 26, 1990 when it hit an all time record high of 122?

'69, '70 and '71. Hot, I can cool off.

Snow? Not for me. We just had 12"+ today, thank goodness the neighbor needs $$$. He's doin' the walks while I play inside, snug as a bug in a rug!

I can say, "Miss Canyon Lake outings!" Loved Arizona!

A couple inches of snow coming down is a nice day in houghton. They don't cancel class anymore here (michigan tech). On the *really* bad days they do make it "optional" though.

Wind gusts to 70 mph whipped the snow into 16 foot drifts in Iowa. 10 to 20 inches of snow was common with 20 inches falling at Grand Meadow, Minnesota and 19.4 inches piling up at Dubuque, Iowa.

I remember that snow storm. I lived in Northern Missouri. We were out for 4 days and went back to school on Friday the 13th.

I remeber one snow day where they didnt close school, we were all gathered in front of our math class waiting for the teacher. He eventually came 45 minutes late, he couldnt get his car out of his driveway, so he walked, he lives nearby. 10 minutes after he came in they announced that the school is closed for the rest of the day. Also once we had a lightening storm one night, the next day I walk into my school (I was late by 5min) as Im walking down the hallway its deserted and only every second light is on, i walk into my electronics class and half the room is lit up and the other half isnt. Turns out a bolt of lightening hit my school and screwed up somthing to do with the power, we were rrunning on a generator in the morning, they let us go home also.

Perspective:
  • Yesterday I washed my car in the driveway
  • Today I mowed the lawn in shorts and a TShirt. Saw far too many yellow dandelions, too.
