Pam! That's so sad!
I'm sure it was great!

Texans everywhere fear you Swede.

BOO!
Maybe I can come with the dreaded snowball! Magical!!!

NO! NOT THE SNOWBALL ANYTHING BUT THE SNOWBALL, PLEASE!

You don't know the power of such snowballs.

My principal made 5 announcements on Thursday saying you can't throw a snowball within 300 ft. of the school and if you hit someone with a snowball you can go to jail for assault.

I haven't heard that one.

That didn't stop the big mass snowball fight on the track after school let out. I hit the principal in the head with a snowball .

And that's the reason why you're posting from jail, am I right?

No snow here in the great PNW (Pacific Northwest).  We had a light dusting of snow back in December that lasted for about a day and then melted.  There are some years when we get no snow at all.  But last year we got what we consider to be a BIG snowfall here on the valley floor that was about 18 inches.  That almost never happens.

The part I always find ridiculous is when the news reporters go out to show how dramatic the weather is when it's usually just a bit of ice or maybe a couple inches of snow, and they act as if they've never seen it before... Hello People!!!  It's called WINTER!  Get over it!  lol  

Here's an actually pretty dramatic video taken a few years ago in Portland.  It was pretty terrible road conditions with snow on top of ice, and the roads here don't get much in the way of treatment.
