Snow My God

Sunny and 51 here on the coast. Dropping to 30 overnight and not a chance of rain for days. Send us some snow, I could use a couple of extra days off.

Must be an NA if the antenna is on the passenger's side.

I heard Denver was 70F yesterday.

Yeah, but you have to live with the freakshow that is california law.

I would put up with weather to get out of Kaliforniastan in a heartbeat if I could but all the jobs are here or in the bay area.

Offtopic, but have you ever checked Texas? My uncle Mark is similar? to you and he's made all his bank in Plano.

Yeah, but there you have to deal with church and football. Just sayin'.

Well, there's always Florida, but there you have to deal with Florida Man. Every place has it's compromises.

And Florida is flat where as California, for the most part, is not.

I've always said, if Florida had as many mountains as it did boobjobs I'd be there in heartbeat.

Are boobjobs NOT mountains?

At least you're close to normal where you are. Out here we're still well below normal, and so far the outlook it pretty bleak.

At least we got a bit of drizzle today, but we need a lot more.

In florida they're even "snow" covered on the peaks usually.....damn cocaine.

Note to self. Making snow angles in three feet of power does not work so well.

At that point you're really just burying yourself. Not a good plan

Oh it was a great plan. The execution part is where things got a bit interesting

Being a bit obtuse?

Eh, it was an excuse to make a horrible pun.

And 55F here in the high desert. But Denver isn't in the mountains. It's really in Kansas. They can see the mountains, that's all The rest is good marketing and branding. Really, a mile high here means "at the bottom".

In YOUR Hemisphere. It hit 99 deg F here in Perth. :)

When I was snowblowing one of our paddocks last night the snow was a little above my knees - just under 2 feet. We got another 7-8" over night though, so we're right around the 30" mark. Ugh

Luckily I could shove all the cars into the shop so only the tractor and truck were left outside.

In reply to DaveEstey:

I would have at least left the prius outside....

We got well over two feet, and the drifts are ridiculous!

I mean, look at this!

I am 6'1", and that's my Trans Am next to me, for scale.

What do we have here?

Is that a Miata under there?

It is a Miata! Note the snow pile on top of the e30 - they're a pretty similar height. I was a little concerned about that much weight on the soft top but it looks ok.
