We get snow all the time. What we usually don't get is a storm that lasts three days.

No extra shopping was needed as we know to keep certain supplies on hand. That includes snow removal equipment and food.

My first pet as a kid was a Samoyed sort of Husky-Light so to speak.....white with brown ears/haunches.....he used to LOVE the snow like a plow, he run with nose in the snow, then stop, raise his nose, SNORT out the snow, lower his nose again and RUN.......repeat several times........wonder if he was just cleaning out his nose.....

We're up to about 2 feet now, and it is still snowing.

I never said we get more snow than anyone else, just that the idea that we rarely get snow is completely wrong.

One of the jokes we used to tell back in DC...

How does a GS-5 close down the government?

Run into the cafeteria and yell "SNOWFLAKE"!
