It's coming this way tomorrow with heavy rains and winds and a 30 degree temperature drop. Stay safe.

Can't it come this way? We'll take anything that sticks!

(Note that in South Carolina, the entire state shuts down the moment any snow or ice sticks to the ground. No school, no state government, no churches, no businesses, nothing. And yet people still manage to get out, drive, and wind up skidding into a ditch.)

Nope, no snow. It's 65F here.

It's rainy here right now but I heard a storm is headed our way. *hopes for a snow day tomorrow*

Snow days only count during the six weeks

rain here, its suppose to snow tomorrow but I don't expect anything to stick to the ground. How big is this storm system?

[Graham Donaldson]

I doubt it'll hit NJ. I wish it would though (not that it'd do anything... supposed to have record highs today...grrr...)

Our local ten day forcast is calling for snow showers here on December 8th but I'm not getting excited about it because that forcast changes every hour!

it hasnt even really snowed here yet, its just sleet covering everything....its started raining early yesterday about 10:00 am and it turned into sleet last night and is still going....the snow is supposedly getting closer

Show Low and Prescott got 1/2 foot of snow yesterday. The temperature actually dropped to 34 here in Phoenix. That's ridiculous for us.

I want a snow day here

The team was traveling to Lubbock for Texas BEST and was in some of that bad weather. At one point, the car ahead of us hit an ice patch and started doing donuts down the highway. Our bus driver handled the situation well, trying not to barrel down on it and we slowed over the distance enough to miss the car by a foot. One of our '04 alums came later and ended up in a donut and then in the ditch. The car behind him did the same thing 15 feet further down. The sheriff came along and slowed down that section of highway.

Side note: On Friday, the whole team built a snowman together. It was the first time many of them had seen snow, so the snowman team building experience was something they will always remember. They found a double A battery in the snow for a nose.

On Thursday, it was about 67 outside, which is ridiculously unseasonable for New England in almost-December. Tomorrow, it is going to be near-freezing with a 70% chance of snow showers.

Can't it just hold off for three more weeks until break?

Oh, Fine. Just in time for Kickoff!

I'll second that one.

Around here, it hardly ever snows before January. It's great when there's snow on my birthday, which is already a three-day weekend (Martin Luther King Jr day). One year I had a four-day weekend because of it! Talk about great birthday presents.
