Title: OK, ENOUGH with the SNOW!
Post by: gpz11 on April 06, 2009, 09:42:36 AM
Geez, I'm sick and tired of it.

I normally love the snow but enough is enough already!

Rant over.

Carry on.

(1) rain
(2) Thunderstorms
(3) hail
(4) sleet
(5) supposed to snow later today...... :wtf:

To be fair, how often do those in Chicago hear about Wisconsin getting dumped on, when we get nothing.  It was a blizzard here last night, had to take winter clothes out of the closet. :banghead:

I think back home in Nebraska they got 16-18".  So, I think we got off pretty easy.

Hey Don't complain Chuck.  Last sat. night we had over 7" here in Gurnee.  Nothing down south like Napierville or Lisle where you live.  Even though I got back from Jackson Hole where we were shredding up to our navel in snow, I really don't need it in Chicagoland.  Now if we had mountains, that would be an entirely different thing!!

Well, I'm just glad that I didn't swap out my winter rims for the summer rims on the truck.

I was thinking about doing it over the past weekend so I'm happy I didn't.

Probably not safe to swap over till August.

In STL in was 65 and sunny yesterday, today it snowed! 

If it keeps this up, we might get a proper RA weekend... damp, cold, mixed precipitation... miserable! 

Forget Rain, snow is the ultimate equalizer!!

I love the prediction of snow we were supposed to have gotten over the weekend...and then...nothing.  I'm definitely ready for warmer temperatures!

I hear you Barb!
Love the snow and using the snowblower. My wife yells at me since I want to snow blow the entire neighborhood!
And you can all blame me since the week before the snow I washed and waxed both cars..... Sorry eh!

LOL

But ENOUGH with the snow!!  I'm done! Full!  Had enough!
Need warm sun!

Need to ride and get my sanity back!

Ughh, weather has been absolutely horrible here in Daytona as well...I feel your pain.  In fact, I had to wear a T-shirt to go riding yesterday...Dont hate me, I have to deal with hurricanes.

It won't be long now,we will all have great trackday weather and stories to tell-,although Summit night time weather will remain the same-(beautiful daytime weather mixed with nightime mini tornadoes that surprise everybody).
Snowmobile racing is an alternative,ice fishing folks seem to adore brutal weather,I like to stay indoors till spring.It's right around the corner........
