Ice Storm of Death [Winter has Arrived] - Page 2

Good news: I 'm in Maryland, it's windy, but WARM. I mean, I was walking around in shorts and T-shirt. On the first of DECEMBER!

Bad news: I'm going to a college in Michigan next year. T_T

Blowing snow

People in the ditch

Had to walk in said temperatures to work.

Me? Well it was 63 yesterday, and now we've got really cold rain that currently is just shy of freezing. And a bit of thunder & lightning (at least where I am, but on Lake Champlain).

Thing is, I'm in Vermont, USA. Usually considered one of the colder freezing states. And we had a bit of a nasty ice storm about 7 years ago, since then our winters got milder & milder to the point where I'm starting to wonder if we're going to even have one this year.

I'm not saying my weather is horrible compared to what everyone else is going through, I was just pointing out the extent at how screwed up things currently are.

Today was quite nice actually. It was pretty warm.

It was only about -5 Celsius.

See, the funny part is you think I'm joking about it being a nice day.

For some reason, we don't get much snow in upper Oregon. Perhaps it's because of the big city nearby causing heat, or maybe it's just a coincidence that it rains when it's above 0 degrees and the sky is clear on below-freezing days, who knows? I unfortunately/fortunately don't have a story about the winter weather, except that once I watered our driveway to make a slide, only to have to throw salt on/attack it so my step-dad could park at his own house.

So it's something like this?

And yeah, over the course of a week it went from "Cold" to "Sweet fucking jesus why is my car frozen, it's only four in the afternoon!"
