When I was gassing up the van and filling the jerry tanks for the impending (now here  :faint: ) snow, I saw at the gas station a very cool go kart with big knobby tires for sale, $300, looked like possible a 12.5 horse snowblower engine in it.

Man would I love to be tooling around out in the snow with that thing tonight!!!  :burnout:

2. you never just stop by....you come and stay and stay and stay.

3. you bring out the worst in drivers

4. did I say your wet...and heavy when I have to shovel you.

5. you make us leave our beloved cars in doors.

6. see post...People....I HATE SNOW!

 Hard to imagine seeing all that white outside the windows. What are some normal activities while dealing with the cold all winter long? I really don't mean to be offensive just interested in what it's like in those conditions.

 BTW: 26 degrees yesterday morning here in Central Ca. No snow though. :-\

Living at high altitude near the mountains we can get weather like this 9 months / year
I heard that around 60% of the people on this planet have never seen snow , I would kill to be one of them  :ylsuper:
What is it like to deal with this , it just makes life hard , everything becomes difficult , it take minutes for skin to freeze if exposed ,I simply cannot take it , my friends deal with ti OK , but their bodys actually make heat , I just suffer , it tkaes 3-4 times as long to get anywhere , you have to warm up & plug in the vehicles everytime you have to go anywhere , trying to actually accomplish anything in this weather is very difficult , construction stops below -20 but the oil patch doesn`t , it was -34 the night before leaving for Mexico ,80-90* here
