Thank you!

We've got snow coming into the DMV so package posting will be delayed until about Thursday. They're talking up to 8" and we just can't deal.

lol, 8". Don't get me wrong, I live in Louisiana and people act like they're going to die if it snows. But I grew up in Alberta Canada. You haven't seen anything until you've walked through snow up to your waist.

True. But anything over an inch shuts us down for a day. And there's a run on bread, milk, and water in the grocery stores

No worries. It's not urgent. We always marvel when people can't handle a little snow. Thanks for a good chuckle!

That's my attitude as a Michiganian transplanted in NJ-- school shuts down for a projected 4" that doesn't even get here and I'm telling the kids, "Back in my day..."

I grew up in Wisconsin and now live in Montana. It's easy to giggle at people and places that panic when there's a dusting of snow, but truthfully, those areas don't have the infrastructure to deal with any quantity of snow. My sister lives in southern Missouri. When it snows, they have to try plowing with road graders, and those machines just aren't made for snow removal.

Here in Montana, we got about a foot of snow last week. Nothing was canceled. Schools kept regular schedules and people went to work...

We had 12" of snow in the New Orleans metro this year (that has NEVER happened in recorded history). People were freaking out. Its really funny to hear "will the roof cave in?". Umm no. If it can survive hurricanes, it's going to survive 12" of snow that melts in a few hours. And yes, the bread flew off the shelves.

You can look forward to a hot summer, because that is what we have here now, then they will be complaining of a heatwave.

We had quite a few 90+°F days this past summer and a few days in a row of 100+° ones. It was the worse

I can't handle anything much over 27, that's comfortable, it's also the humidity that knocks you around, it's been 87%. I had to go to the dentist 2 weeks ago and it was 42, he said your sweating a lot, had to take a hand towel with me, couldn't touch the steering wheel of the car and that was with the dashboard cover on the windscreen.

Same. I think we had 2 weeks in a row where it was over 100F last summer the months of July and August normally sit in the low 90F. No humidity luckily but still too hot to do anything.

Last week we had 3 days of temps in the low 60F. Average this time of year is 40F. Now we're expecting snow this weekend. It's been a yo-yo ride where I am weather wise. I'm not expecting summer to be any better this year .

I really don't like the super cold days of winter, but the older I get I feel like I can deal with that better than the super hot and humid days of summer.

I am definitely the same. I don’t mind the cold but can’t handle heat and humidity at all.

 

[ackosel]

I definitely prefer warmer weather, but I can't handle Midwest humidity. Out here in the dry air, I can work hard outside in 100°F for hours a day (drinking LOTS of water), but I can't handle 90°F when the humidity is high, too. Plus, dry heat isn't a great environment for mosquitoes, so it's a win-win!

Oh my, that is HOT! And humid to boot. Poor you! That would make me sick!

Same here, can always put on more layers when it's cold, but only so much you can take off when it's hot and humid.
It is true that here in the south, particularly the rural areas, we don't have the infrastructure to handle much snow or ice. It often takes several days for the back roads to be cleared and if the temperatures stay below freezing, there is ice to deal with.

Similar situation here. I live in mid-Missouri where 1” of snow cancels everything. Grew up in the Syracuse, NY area where we averaged over 150” a season and school was cancelled, maybe once. I still miss those huge snowfalls! Of course my Missouri-native friends think there is something “wrong” with me but -what can I say?

@justsomeguy dang, I didn’t see this till now. If you happen to have someone drop out, I’d be interested, even a # or 8 oz. Just let me know if that happens.

I'm so sorry. I gave out more than 30 pounds already. I'm out.
