Sick of snow.View Messages“The weather service won't update the information for the Park until 0730, but I imagine they got plenty at LeConte.” 4:03:46 AM 2/27/08 It\\\'s Spring Here!!! “From sunny Tucson where it was 75 degrees yesterday--- ”4:25:39 AM 2/27/08 “Ended up getting about 16" so far. The snow is still coming down.” 5:49:36 AM 2/27/08 “White is just a frogs hair better than brown...sigh....” 6:08:21 AM 2/27/08 “I wanna go boardin'!” 1:22:04 PM 2/27/08 “I took a break this afternoon in Franklin TN just to get snow on my hair and pretend like I was taking a walk. It was sunny, then snowing on and off all day. No accumulation, everyone else seemed to stay home, so I got to and from work in record time to pick up my bicycle from the shop.” 5:52:20 PM 2/27/08 “Redroxx I didn't know you were in Tucson! It was great here today too. Nice!” 5:56:23 PM 2/27/08 “WTF!?!?! Its f'n march 27th and we are still getting snow, 2more inches. Jeeze, enough already.” 7:31:18 PM 3/27/08 “I'd love to have something that falls from the sky without a bird being involved. The two two hour rains we've had in the last two years each came when I was sleeping.” 8:47:49 PM 3/27/08 “92 degrees in when I got in the car this afternoon at 4:30. Saw some snow (from a distance) on Navajo Mtn last weekend, from Lake Powell.” 9:59:39 PM 3/27/08 “getting 6 inches today, excited about spending a last night in it before the mud season begins.” 3:41:15 AM 3/28/08 “Woke up to 3 inches on top of 1/4"-1/2" of ice. None of the roads were plowed until I had gotten about 10 miles from home. There were cars off the road all over the place. My forester actually went into a skid; that's only the second time that has happened in the 5 years I've owned the car.” 4:36:23 AM 3/28/08 “I'm waiting for the "roaring out like a lion" part of March, cuz so far it's been pretty nice. When we get through April, winter should be pretty much over. Nice OOC quote there Fingerlakes.” 5:32:46 AM 3/28/08 “Isn't March "In like a lion, out like a lamb?"” 6:34:11 AM 3/28/08 “I don't think so, but you could be right. So far it's been in and out like a lamb...there's a sheep joke in there somewhere:)” 6:41:06 AM 3/28/08 “Ever see the old Mad magazine cover involving "In like a lion?" There's a very unhappy lamb involved.” 6:44:23 AM 3/28/08 “YAWN...been beautiful here...40 F nights...60 and 70s in the day!!!” 6:45:17 AM 3/28/08 7:42:52 AM 4/03/08 “ROFL!” 9:45:35 AM 4/03/08 “The snow in the parks or the "wild" have frozen solid due to rain and melting and re-freezing. So we can't do much on them...can't cross-country ski, snowshoe or even walk on it....unless it's on a ski path and have been groomed. Reminds me of a question I asked a friend who works up in Quebec north....I'm talking serious boonies here!!! So I ask him, "Do you go x-country skiing on your time off there?" He gave me an incredulous look and says, "The average temperature is -25C....easily into the -40'sC with a little windchill....and it's open tundra there". Everywhere is frozen chunky snow.....” 2:49:25 AM 4/04/08 “Looks like someone better get a bigger shovel. Had a new coating on the ground this morning.” 5:09:25 AM 4/04/08 “ ”12:57:37 PM 4/04/08 “Yall yankys are verry lukky to play in the snow ever time! I did not play in no snow sints we was at Mennysodas or wher never.” 1:56:54 PM 4/04/08
