DeVeeWee Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Snow is fun for kids, the plague for the elderly,...and what does snow mean for the ones in between? I've done 6 hours over 200km last Thursday, snow paralyzed Belgium in no time... I hope you'l still be able to go out and play your gig saturn!

rocketman Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I lived in MD for 5 years and I always thought it was hysterical how they closed down schools and other places BEFORE the snow even came down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 We would like to get some snow here but Nashville is at a lower altitude relative to the west and obviously the east so out 10 times snow is in the forecast only happens once or twice a year if that.

RichCI Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Reporting from Belmar, NJ, a half a block from the beach... So far, mostly a lot of wind and some light covering; you can still see some grass poking through. I commented to my girlfriend, who has been watching the weather, "This is it?" She said, "Just wait, the heavy stuff is supposed to start coming down around 2:00 PM. We're supposed to get 12 to 18 inches." I said, "I'll give you 12 to 18 inches." She laughed but I'm not sure if I liked the tone of her laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowdiddley Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I lived in MD for 5 years and I always thought it was hysterical how they closed down schools and other places BEFORE the snow even came down. While I was in the Navy and stationed in Charleston, SC they actually closed schools and most businesses down the day before it was "SUPPOSED" to snow! My wife worked for an auto insurance company and due to flurries, (nothing was sticking mind you) there were over 200 reported accidents because people were seeing the flakes and were distracted. It was the funniest thing I had ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie brown Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Yeah, all "gigs" around here, are "Tentative" in the Winter months, because of "The weather!" In the summer, unless a tornado destroys the building/venue...people will show up and/or play, regarless. Might have to wait out a rain storm, etc...but, they'll still be there! Not so, in the Winter. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanMan Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 So Rich, that's what... somewhere between three and five times over the afternoon......? /chuckle sorry man, couldn't resist... Thanks for the pics Saturn! We love snow... like Stiff said, this area doesn't get a bunch.... (And the REASON they close schools down here is because people here are idiots and do NOT know how to drive in snow. Heck, they freak out if it even rains.... or the wind blows.... or it's sunny... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruznolfart Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Love snow, ChanMan? So far this year we haven't gotten snow down this far. Just the first cold-snap with temps in the low teens for a few days. Warmed back up now, though, close to 50 during the day while it rains. Here's the chicken coop and driveway from last year...we're still waiting for now...and trust me, I could do without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverbursted Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 That stuff is moving up the coast too. Snow is nice to look at in a photograph, but you can keep shoveling that crap. Looks like a nice day to stay inside and play! I almost said something else, but we need to at least keep this place PG13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturn Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 Yep, it's officially canceled.

Silverbursted Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 There's more coming too Hey Saturn, what part of Maryland do you live.

ChanMan Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 ROFL Cruzn!!! I swear to you... I found that bottom pic somewhere out on the web and downloaded it. I've used it as my desktop.... Beautiful scene. And I know that the folks who have to deal with it so much are sick of it... we love it because we have so little of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
