Send all that snow to the Colorado mountains, they could use more of it.

We're not usually too bothered by it, actually. As long as it's not black ice on the roads or negative temperatures in Fahrenheit... Once you've lived here for 20+ years you kind of get used to driving on snow and stockpiling up on things.

Californians would gladly take your snowstorms. We're thirsty!
There's also exceptionally little snow.
17%.

I don't care about the snow at all, all that concerns me is temperature.
I swear, my landlord doesn't seem to have the heat on in my apartment, and this space heater has been demolishing my electric bill over the past two months.
I just don't want that zero degree shit.

Snow isn't hitting that area until Tuesday. You should be good.

When you have to work and pay bills and when snow makes it to where you can't get to said job that isn't good. If i was 13, yeah.. I would be totally hype right now.
I, like millions of people don't live on some main road. They never treat these areas so when it snows and gets icy it is IMPOSSIBLE for me to leave. That's money i am losing from my store and it's money my employees aren't getting. Money they use to feed their kids and pay their rent. And unlike a lot of places, especially government run places i won't fire my employees for missing X days. I am very leniant and understand acts of "god". But a lot of businesses aren't.
Welcome to the 1960s and 70's midwest winters......
I grew up back then, I mostly remember the 70s winters, each year seemed about like what is happening now, and the old timers used to say it was worse before then. We lived in a little town in Northwest Michigan, there is an island offshore, only barely visible on the horizon from where we lived. I remember people telling me they used to take snowmobiles across Lake Michigan to the Island when the Lake froze, 20 miles away, blew my mind...

This is likely caused by global warming. Hope this helps!

You gotta be kidding me. Just spent an hour shoveling the 10 inches of snow we got last night, and still have quite a bit left. It seems like every other day now...

You do know that where its actually summer right now that they have been getting record temperatures right? You do know that warmer means more precipitation and not less right? You do know that Alaska and Canada have been having unusually mild winters yes?

It hasn't even finished snowing here and there's gonna be more on Tuesday?
At least it's spring break and I don't have to go anywhere....

my back still hurts from shoveling yesterday.
The irony of the situation is I shoveled snow for about an hour on Thursday and a good 45 minutes on Friday with no ill effects. However, while in the kitchen yesterday making breakfast I tried to hold in a sneeze and there went the disc in my back. I've been walking around like an old man for the last 24 hours, popping Ibuprofen every 4-6 hours. It sucks when no position is comfortable.
:/
Pretty sure he's joking
Anyway... Keep that shit away from NC so I can escape this shithole.

There's talk at my brother's high school of making them go to school on Saturdays to make up for all the lost time. I told him I'd drive to his school that day to point and laugh at him as he walked in.

i do not mind it at all as long as it does not cause any problem in driving. If I am safe my car is safe I do not care how much snow you dump. It is just major pain in ass to drive in conditions like these.

I don't think you quite understand whats going on here.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
For that area, though, this isn't really a "major winter storm." As someone who lived in Michigan for more than 20 years, those snow totals are incredibly common.
With all of the crazy threads about things that happen in Florida, are you sure that's what you really want?
