wenn Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Happy Birthday. Does everything shut down when it snows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Yes, I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. We are in SW Louisiana. Happy Birthday, Gayle39. I moved here to get away from snow, it's just wrong. :lol::lol: The few parishes (counties) around us closed school, but ours isn't. DS wanted a snow day. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich with Kids Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 We had the most beautiful snow most of last evening. The ground was warm enough that it didn't stick, of course, so it was so fun! I feel like I got a little gift. Back to the 70s over the next few days!

missplacedalaskan Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 We would love to have snow here on the MS Gulf Coast! Ds has been talking about it since Mon when we heard there was a cold front moving through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I got a little gift. Back to the 70s over the next few days! We are in Houston too. It snowed all yesterday evening and late into the night. By 3am (I got up to check on the kids) it had stopped. It is 8:30 am and we still have snow on the ground. We had so much that a gang of our friends went to the school grounds to build snowmen. Big ones! :) RhondaM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tammyla Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Happy Birthday... Enjoy your snow, we get it so often around here it just isn't special and that's a crying shame. I grew up in the west and each and every snowflake was celebrated.;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wenn Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Happy Birthday... Enjoy your snow, we get it so often around here it just isn't special and that's a crying shame. I hear ya. The first couple days I thought it was pretty but it has since lost its appeal;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutor Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 We are in northern MS and have heard rumors of snow all day. It's all around us - north, south, east, and west. Just not here. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colleen Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Yes, it's snowing! We usually don't see this but every 10-20 years! And it's my 40th birthday! How exciting! :001_smile: Happy Birthday!!! I'll join you at 4-0 in early March.:) What fun that you're seeing some snow today! I's so strange that my old stomping grounds (New Orleans, Houston) have seen the white stuff while we've had unusually mild temps here in Western WA. I do remember that my first year at Tulane, there was a dusting of snow right around Thanksgiving. Such a surprise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krista in LA Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Happy birthday! It is no fair that it's snowing in southern LA - I want some snow in northern LA! Enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 we southern folks love our snow days I live in central Alabama and hoping to see some snow we were in Gatlinburg TN right after thanksgiving the snow in the mountains were beautiful. We did a 5 mile hike with about a inch on the ground. It was just a great vacation for us. I guess those with real large snow fall think we are nuts. I am glad I don't have to shovel snow every winter. Happy Birthday to you and happy snow day to southern LA:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuntieM Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 by 8 am the ground was covered with the stuff, and it was expected to continue all day. She said the news was airing all the closings - virtually everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Virginia Dawn Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I wish it would snow here. Then I could take a snow day without feeling guilty. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMCassandra Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I wish it would snow here. Then I could take a snow day without feeling guilty. :-) Well, it's snowing somewhere, isn't it? So why not take a snow day in the honor of the snow that's falling there?!;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingmommy Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 The great thing about rare snow IMHO is that it is a special occasion. My sister lives in Minnesota and they have so much snow that it's no big deal. Here in Louisiana, it is always magical! jeannie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWOB Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I grew up in south Louisiana and fondly remember how everything shuts down completely when it snows. My sister, who is only 15, called me at 5:50am to tell me it was snowing there. I seriously thought someone had died or something. BTW, Happy 40th!
