I HATE SNOW

[cuznjohn]

well so far we have about two inches of the white stuff. they are saying that we can end up with 12 inches of it today. i used to love going out and spending time in the snow, but lately i have been full of pains. on monday i went for a MRI of my neck, and found out some of the pains i have are herniated disks in my neck, pressing on the cord. the doctor also said they are in a place that is too dangerous to do anything about. i asked about shots that might help, and again he said too dangerous. lucky for me he gave me pain pills for it. so later when i do the snow, i will take a pill if i am hurting, and zone out the rest of the day.

I just came inside from my "Winter Aerobics"...
You guys are definitely going to take the biggest shot from this storm: we've only got six inches of the white fungus down, and it's already slowing up!

Hope the pain killers do the job...there is a cannabis lotion that can do wonders well you know out here we can grow our own, daughter had oral surgery and just added some magic cookies to her shake and said it did a much better job that the pain pills... hope the storm blows by with a minimum amount of snow fall...

If I were you John, I would look for a warmer climate.

Possibly South Carolina or there about?

At least for the winter anyways.

That's why I moved to South Carolina in 1971. Never looked back.

i grew up and made my living here in ny. the only way i would move somewhere else is if my sister moved, then i would move close to her. we are very close, and talk every day

[oldguyinTX]

14 inches on the ground here so far, and still snowing heavily.

I am guessing good "Ole Al" was talking about WARM Snow......

I've been dealing with disc issues c-3 thru c-7 since 92. The thing that helps me the most is physical therapy and traction daily. Keep moving cause motion is the lotion and **** happens so go fast and stay ahead of it.

There is a fix for this problem. It is called Phoenix, AZ. [emoji6]

Doesn't Phoenix get hit with a haboob every now and then?
(Is the plural of that "Haboobies"?)

[cuznjohn]

i just came in from doing almost the whole block with the machine. i took a pain pill b4 i went out, so not too bad right now

They get them pretty regular these days. A desert sandstorm that pretty much blocks everything out. Probably not to great for the air filters and such in vehicles.

We get similar when Mt. Spur (the volcano goes off every twenty years or so).

[ARtraveler]

We only got an inch last night. I wont need to use the snowblower on that.

That's exactly what I did. We lived in Yonkers. My sister moved to SC in 1970, then I moved here in 1971.

Sandstorms do happen a couple times a year, but I've never had to shovel the walk or driveway after one. [emoji6] We also get monsoon storms. And we have rattlesnakes and scorpions mountain lions and bears and javalina and everything is either poisonous or covered with thorns, sometimes both. Oh, and it is sometimes 100 degrees Fahrenheit at midnight on the hottest summer days. (Hopefully, this post will keep more people from coming out here every winter and clogging the roads.)

Your description reminds me of a line in a movie; I only wish that I could remember which one!
It went like this:
"If I owned this place and Hell: I'd rent this place out, and live in Hell!"


EDIT: It fell out of my head...
It was from Toombs, as he was describing the Planet Crematoria in "The Chronicles of Riddick".

[Deanna777]

Here in the Montpelier( area) Vermont only 2 to 3 inches, and cold. I am fine. Going to work tomorrow.

[Bob Denman]

On the reasonably light impact in your area!

[kngfsh27]

This could be a whole lot worse than what it is. It could be me in Missouri getting snow. I will be riding tomorrow and Saturday.

I think I would rather have the snow than the 3/4" of freezing rain we got Tuesday night. Now, everything is coated in a nice thick layer of ice. When I walk on top of it in my yard, it breaks and I drop almost a foot. Hard to walk on and even harder for our dog.

I had to get the neighbour to plow it because it was too hard for me to move. Snowblower was absolutely no help.

The above named ski resort ( 11 minutes and 2700 feet above my house) has gotten 510" + of snow this season. Yes that is over 42 FEET of snow fall this season. There is over 15 feet of snow no the ground( average) and the expect 1 to 3 feet tonite as we have an "atmospheric river" hitting us today. The amount of snow is mind boggling but the Sierra Nevada dose get just about more snow than most mt. ranges.

This post is about Mt. Rose ski resort in Nevada. USA. It is just east of Lake Tahoe, California/Nevada. Check the " Snow Report" portion of site at www.mtrose.com for factual information about snow received this season. A google search will give pages and pictures of where I've skied for decades. or just go to www.mtrose.com

Tuesday morning we had a couple inches of what most folks would call wet snow. I called it pre-slush. By 2 PM it was mostly melted into 2" of slush.

[Peter Aawen]

Hey Kaos, I can only assume that you put 'THe above named...' name in the post title field?!?

Any chance you could edit your post to include that info in the text? Or maybe just tell us what the resort name actually is??

There are quite a few of us who NEVER get to see anything anyone puts in that field apart from the title from the very first poster.... so I can tell you that 'I HATE SNOW' is the thread title, but your post just doesn't make much sense when that is ALL that I can see from the field immediately above your post! And despite trying to search on the info you provided in the text, it doesn't narrow things down much at all.

I really wish that 'title' field could be entirely disabled for everyone except the first poster in a thread; or at least that following/replying posters just wouldn't use it at all - that'd help soooo many of us to make sense of some posts instead of just leaving us guessing....
