Snow!

I'm getting very sick of the snow. Here in Colorado, we have gotten big snowstorms each week for the past month. And yea it's snowing again so thats 5 straight weeks with a snowstorm. We have gotten like around 50 inches in the past month and its to the point I can't go snowboarding since the roads won't permit me in my car. Bring on summer and 90+ temps all the way

How do you paste pics in here?

I thought Colorado was all about snow. You should be able to just snowboard to the snowboarding hills, right?

Snowboarding hills lol. Yea I live along the front range (right along the eastern side of the mountains) so all the resorts are like a good 2 hrs away. Granted I can ride my bike in the mountains in like 20min from my house but as far as resorts go, most are central to west central part of colorado.

I wish i lived closer to the resort, I hate leaving my house at 6am to get to the place by 830 to snowboard as it is a long drive to be cramped in a car with your buds and all the ski equipment lol

What did people do before ski resorts? :D

Funny, I thought that skis were originally invented as transportation. Skateboards were kind of like that. I'd think that snowboards would be good too.

Maybe skis I could see like cross country skiing for trekking across places but snowboards....you have to have a hill to move. There have been many a time I have gone and created my own trials only to find i no longer have any momentum. I then have to sit down, unbind my boots and walk to where I could start moving again, sit down, get strapped in and then go. It is not fun once you stop moving lol

Now mountain boarding would be fun although that would definitly take alot of confidence!

Lol. I love all you people oogling over snow. Here in MN, it's like grass or trees, but it's such a novelty everywhere else :D I guess that's why we really know how to drive in it, and everywhere else across the nation there are accidents left and right because of the noobness associated with these rookie snow drivers.

I get quite sick of all the "I just want snow for Christmas" people around here. It's ****ing New England! It snows! If you don't like it, move south. Of course, these are the same people who can't drive for **** in the snow and always piss and moan about it (and cut me off :mad: ). I need to go north, perhaps MN, but I'd prefer to stay more east.


And I'm quite mad that Tuscon is getting snow, and our damn lawn was growing last week. Oh well, flurries tomorrow night. :rolleyes:
 
This really ticks me off!!! Every week the "meterologists" forecast snow for the "next week" and guess what, nothing happens!! This has been going on for the past 5 weeks. They are giving us false hopes and they should die. I just want 5 inches of snow. I really want a blizzard with ice and 3 feet of snow and maybe even another layer of ice. But please, 5 inches of snow, that's all I ask for. Mother****ing Nature give me something here!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
 
It snowed in Phoenix yesterday. It didn't stick, of course, but it was still cool watching it come down.

Lotsa snow up here :) it snowed very heavily yesterday. despite it reaching 4ºc today with direct sunlight too - the snow remained. 2 inches thick too. Then again we always get snow during Jan/Feb.
Dashboard weather widget says no more snow though :(
 
We had snow in London (UK) this morning. It's melted now but here are some pictures from earlier...

We got some more overnight. Keep getting huge flakes too, supposed to be a blizzard on the way.
