Welcome to Minnesota!

We got NUKED with a snowstorm... I think we've gotten at least 8" so far, and its still coming down! While I hate the idea of digging out, it IS pretty out there. I think I'm not gonna dig out til it stops, or at least I'll wait til it slows down.

Not that this will shut the state down or anything. Its just snow. ;)

Isn't 8" of snow just a minor inconvenience for well-wintered Minnesotans?

Heh.

Pretty much- I only remember one time that the city buses were shut down- that was the Halloween Storm of 1991. The city buses NEVER stop here, but that was several inches of rain followed by 12-14" of snow, followed by actual temps of -31 or worse. You don't wanna know what the windchill was...

"Nuked"? Heh, yeah. Being a little overdramatic there, Sorien. ;)

We got decently dusted. At least yesterday (its already melting a day later) it looked like a Winter in Minnesota is supposed to look like.

Pthlbblblblblttt!

YOU didn't have to shovel any of it- me and khirsahdrgn did all the cleanup!

That's because I'm clever and don't let you lazy your way out of things. ;)

j/k ^^

You'd already done it all by the time I got home.
