Art & Inspiration Oh Caaaaaanaaaaadaaaaa....

... I just want to thank you for providing me with this bit of shock Tuesday.

 

I think you would get a view more viewers if your headline was FLORIDAAAAA

 

Your welcome...

About -10 F and real snooowweee here...and we got lots to spare...make a snowball...

 

Like a kid in a candy store.
I remember watching new friend of 14yrs here in Ohio.
He was from Florida and just moved here. It began to snow and watching his excitement was something Ive never forgotten.

 

I wonder how much a guy could make by hauling a truck load of down jackets down to Florida right now and selling them on a street corner.

 

Oh, You mean the snow, Car cover looks to be working well

 

Oh, you poor thing!

 

Sharing is caring; we have plenty. Thanks Now send us some oranges before they are ruined!

 

Ha! I thought you spilled a bag of sugar.

 

There's lots more where that came from.... high winds today too. Visibility at noon in blowing snow was less than 100 yds...

 

awwww how cute

 

I took my basic training at Fort Jackson, S.C. in February, 1966. We had about a half inch of snow and the army suspended training for the day! I recall some of the guys from the south tried to make a snowman. Funny as hell.

 

I got off active duty in Ft. Jackson 1st week of February '65; same deal, maybe 1" of snow overnight. First Sergeant didn't want to let me go because of the snow. I convinced him that growing up in Pennsylvania I had driven in much worse.

 

I'm sure we can get you some more !

Globl warming my back side!!!!

 

Wow! Looks like you got at least 24 inches of snow!







...(In Florida, snow fall is measured horizontally.)

 

How's it measured in Texas then?

 

Almost never,'cept for this December.

 

Someone from Canada stole your T Bird and left a late model Buick in it's place???

 

So how are you folks coping. Airports shut down? Public transit at a standstill? Mayhem on the highways? Looks pretty brutal, better hunker down and ride it out. Don't try to be a hero and go anywhere in those drifts or they may not find your body till Spring

 

Those Canadians spend a lot of Canadian dollars in Florida. Years ago my dad had a motel business on the Gulf coast: In the winter almost half his take was that funny money. That snow could be due to the slipstream from them heading south to the beach.

 

I want a refund!!

 

It was -29C (-20F) here last night - still not too cold to enjoy the hot tub outside - just couldn't leave the beer out too long or it froze!!!!

 

Watching the news last night and it was so cold in Florida that the Iguanas were falling out of the trees.

 

That's really not a lot of snow by Florida standards.
Oh! You mean that's REAL show!

 

I was stationed at Ft. Bragg N.C. in 66-68, we got some light snow. I got to teach my southern buddies how to make snowballs. I grew up in North Dakota, had lots of experiance with snow. Seeing adults that were new at it was interesting.

 

Hoosier by birth, I grew up in Lakes winters. That being the primary reason I'm in SoCal, I can appreciate your comment.
