Conditions have to be just right ( heavy snow being one of them ) . We had a couple tonight.

Back in the early 80s, we had a hellacious snow storm with a lot of thundersnow. That ended up being about a 30" snow storm.

For that storm in the early 80s, my room mate and I went to his dad's ( in town ) to party out the storm instaed of being snowed in at the farm.

Drank with his Dad until about 9pm, then walked about 1/2 mile to the local "watering hole". Closed out the bar and ended up partying with Joy and a couple of her friends until the early morning hours.

Then we had to walk bck to his dad's the next day. No clouds and it was bright. That really hurt with all that brightness and a killer hangover :slap:
