It's Snowing!

Hi there caver! I hope things are going well with you! We have had a heck of a lot of snow over here this year too and more forecast for this week too. At the moment we have freezing fog which I presume will mean that everything is all covered in white tomorros and I hope it doesn't snow before this lifts or it will be so dangerous on the roads. Here schools close once the roads get bad. People try and make it to work but when it is really bad and for those who work in the towns on the lower part of the mountains, it is often impossible to reach their wpork place. I stayed over at work for tow nights in December when there was the heaviest fall. Thank goodness I work in an hotel! If I am at home when it snows I stay in. I can find things to d to keep me busy, especially on here. It's warm indoors and I am not keen on walking in the snow and I don't driv in it all. I get lifts or taxis if no-one is available. Thank goodness sproing is round the corner because I have seen enough snow for this year!

If it is a large snow storm, everything shuts down. We have had about 3 large storms. I stay inside and work on my computer, if the lights do not go out. The kids go out and play in it. My oldest son will dig out the cars in case we have to go somewhere. We drink a lot of hot cocoa. Happy posting.

I rarely get snow days anymore since I've started working for a big university. We tend to get off work only when it's truly bad out and today just happened to be one of those days where they canceled work. When I do get off because of the weather I make a point to do things I may not get to do or just to be lazy and sleep in. I really don't do anything special when it comes to snow days, it's really just another day.

Hi, caver1. When it snows here, it will be many places that would be closed down until further notice. And it will be an two-hour delay somewhere too. We have not had any snow yet. I wonder if we are getting any too. Continue to stay warm and safe in this snow. Take care of yourself.

Around here, pretty much the entire city has to shut down before any schools are canceled. I know because I remember having to go to school years ago in some of the worst weather. Thankfully, I had taken the bus so I did not have to drive in it. However, I had to wait for the bus, which had broken down in the cold weather and was forty five minutes late. It takes an extraordinary amount of snow to shut down anything around here, schools especially. These days when it snows, I just sit down and relax, while waiting for the worst of it to be over and then deal with the mess that has to be cleaned up later. The aftermath is often times even more worse than the snow storm.
