I do not know about you guys but I love seeing the snow fall during the winter; the peacefulness and beauty of it dazzels me! Even if I have to plow my whole driveway, which is long, it still is just worth it, watching the small little pieces of heaven float in the sky. Tastes pretty good too, but I try to stay away from the yellow flakes most of the time.

I say there is nothing like seeing your breath, and praying to god you still have hot chocolate in the pantry! viking.gif

P.S. speaking without contractions sounds a little funny...

I love it, it makes the rest of the year worth while. biggrin.gif

i love snow! it's so magestic looking, snowfall is the pinnacle of peacefulness. Im about as happy when i see snow as when i see june 20th on the calendar

I grew up in a ski-town, then moved down to the bay area where some of these rich kids have never even seen snow.

I love snow, as long as I'm looking at it from IN the house. biggrin.gif I have arthritis, so it hurts me bones. When I was a kid I liked to play in it and make snowmen. smile.gif

Sadly, it doesn't snow here much. Luckily I'm moving back to Alaska as soon as my dad retires. smile.gif

It makes that weird white rain stuff fall from the sky about every 5 years here in Vegas. I don’t enjoy it much.....I was born and bred under the hot sun of the desert,
I CANNOT Take the cold. Hell, 62 degrees is reason enough to make people wear winter coats around here. When it snows, you can see 72 Mexican kids (me included) simultaneously run outside, look at each other, and run back inside all thinking the exact same thing. and that thing is

"I dont like the snow"
The kid
I Live in Nebraska. Winter meens very cold and lots of snow which meens shoveling driveways. I like to think of winter as a time to relax and not work. I love snow but i love rain more. Blizzards are fun to. Last year there was blizzard and i was outside walking around in town and i got lost that was fun turns up i was onyl 2 blocks away from home and ended up 2 miles away that was kool.

It's not as simple as yes or no for me. I like the snow, but the winter here in Sweden is far too long and the melting just plain sucks. Everything is wet and muddy and you wish snow didn't exist. But I guess the snow in January/February is nice and it would be an even less pleasant winter without it.

The kid: That sounds scary, not cool if you ask me..
Wolfie
It pretty much never snows here, and when it does it's a negligible amount, so while i like snow, all i get to do is think about how cool it looks because there isn't enough to build snowmen or have snowball fights or anything like that sad.gif
Momaw
I like snow. Up until late winter when the piles on either side of the driveway are about 6 feet tall. Makes throwing the snow up and over rather difficult. But it's very nice till then. Pretty. And quiet! Snow has an amazing ability to muffle noise. I suppose the only thing I really dislike about snow (other than moving huge quantities of it) is the brightness. On a sunny day, if you aren't wearing goggles or sunglasses, it can become painfully bright. sad.gif

I love snow even smile.gif

The problem however is that here in the Netherlands we hardly get any, and if we do it's never around christmas which is of course the best time for snow sad.gif

I love snow... biggrin.gif

Ohh...SNOW!!! Itīs just awesome! You guys who know me from TES forums may remember me complaining heavily last winter when we didnīt get much of snow....it came in march!!!

I live in Canada. Canada. Not loving snow is like not loving Submarine Sandwiches here.

Seriously though, I love snow. I love it so much it takes first place as my favourite seasons, and judging by the occasional frost and increadibly hard ground, winter is coming fast and snowy. This is ofcourse great because last year, we had days will hail and sleet and days where shorts and a t-shirt was acceptable clothing.

One of the reasons I love it so much is because it makes even the most ugly things beautiful. Also, I love forests, and nothing beats a snowy forest.

Also, I can get used, aquanted if you will, with winter. I never really think "wow, this is so much different from summer" or "I miss spring".

Well, that's my ramble about winter and snow.

Yeah, I was about to say that too. It gets darn cold, everything freezes, we get some hail, but seldom there's a big layer of snow covering the landscape sad.gif

back in my old school system, out in the county, if they saw a snow flake everyone freaked out and was like "CALL THE BUSSES! THE APOCOLYPSE IS COMING!!!" and we got out of school within 30 minutes, now it doesn't really snow to much in the city, but we get out a few days.

I neve really got off at my school because of snow. Even when it snowed like five feet in one night. They got the snow off the road in time for school. sad.gif

I hate efficiency. biggrin.gif
Wurlon
Most of the time students recieve a snow-day because the principle is worried someone or a bus might get hurt, which would be their fault. I'm pretty sure no one likes getting sued by an angry parent and/or guardian.
Soulseeker3.0
lol I Love the snow, I don't like it when (like Gamer said) they clean off the roads and say there is no reason for school to be out.... grrr.... but it is fun even though I don't get much, or if I do it melts within a day... Stupid MO weather...
Wurlon
I remember a picture my parents showed me during 91' or 92' blizzard, the back sliding glass door was surrounded by snow and I was standing next to it, two feet shorter ... cool picture....

I can't think of very many more things that I hate more than snow...

I agree, snow to me is like battery acid to a marshmellow. Cold is just not an option for jawas like me.

I love snow, but I hate cold with a passion... Im weird like that.
Zelda_Zealot
I love snow, I love making snowballs, making snowmen, and doing just about everything with it. I remember going up to my grandparents house (Up on NY) for Christmas a few years ago, hoping it would snow. Guess how much we got, yup, seven feet of it. Of course we get snow once in a bluemoon here in SC.

What part of Missouri do live in, 'cause I live in the SW corner and I get a decent amount. smile.gif
Soulseeker3.0
I live In JC so I do get a decent amount of snow but it drys up fairly quick and the road crews are pretty good at their job..

p.s. I think I am also somewhat of a pesimist(sp?)

Yay! My city is full of snow and has been for about a week! Sweet glorious white beauty!

Best part of all, I predicted it. I stomped the ground daily to see how hard it was and made a estimated guess that the snow would come the next day. I was right. This ofcourse proves I am Chief Tecumseh reincarnated. Or lucky. I havn't found out yet tongue.gif .

I love snow. Being a snowboarder its kinda required for the hobby. Living in the southern hemisphere means no more snow for a while.

Snow = Pure Awesome cool.gif

Hehe, I see Aki agrees with the other Wolves. Yay for dangerous if agitated animals!

Florodine of Hlaalu
im so excited, its thanksgiving tomorrow, and it might snow. ive wanted snow for so long, ever since school started i guess.

I like the snow because I drive around in it in a Subaru Legacy L with All Wheel Drive. I love zipping down the back roads and watching the big snow cloud behind me. If you don't like driving in the snow I HIGHLY recommend Subaru, all their vehicles have AWD.

Well, I'm increadibly tired right now so it'll be about a day before I realize what MI is, but if you mean Cheif Tecumseh of the Shawnee tribe who united many of the Indian tribes against the English, yes.

Anyways, my city looks like december 25 came early, so I've been sholveling. Bad news is now I have to clear a bunch of ice off my walkway because I found out that the snow I shoveled was what was keeping me from slipping. Oh well, I guess I get to bust out my trusty ice pick I was saving for a Zombie attack.
Burnt Sierra
Well, normally I'd say yes. However, after we had snow falling today, my opinion has been changed. From now on I love snow if I'm sat inside with the heat on, with a smoke and a glass of something, erm, warming. smile.gif

Not when I'm sat at work, knowing I have to walk home in it nono.gif

Aye.....totally agree..at least on the sitting-inside-with-a-smoke-and-a-glass-of-something......

Which by the way is exactly what Iīm doing right now....except from the smoke-thingy.....

I will never get used to this Michigan weather, last week the temperature was in the 20's and it snowed a lot. Today? 55 degrees, snows all gone.

Snow is great, it kills the insect and arachnids of our world temporarily, you can ski, snowmobile, eat snow, and find where your dog really pees... biggrin.gif
Kell-Reevor
I used to get snow. I have always liked it. Ever walk through a forest in wintertime? The trees are all white and covered in icicles, no leaves on them.

But now I'm trapped in Florida, with people who wear shorts and sandles year round. kvright.gif (I stick to my traditional boots and pants, even in summer)

Anyways, I really miss those winters where no matter how cold it is, you can just wrap up in blanket and say "to hell with school, I'm cold" biggrin.gif

Hehe..according to my daughter who just arrived in Michigan....thereīs a lot of snow there....now!! At least in Ann Arbor!

I love snow and I love cold, yesterday it was frozen over here, take a step and you almost fall. I was wearing a light jacket and jeans. Today it went about to 32 degrees, jeans and a light T-shirt. My friend is boring in snow though, he dislikes snowball fights, he gets that lil' plastic sled out. And my road sucks for sledding. I enjoy snow days though
School districts here never call snow days. It has to be like deadly for it to be a snow day tongue.gif

sweet a way to wear goggles and not look like an idiot. I don't think I have ever seen anyone in my state wearing goggles when not swiming. You are lucky, you can emulate Naruto and not have peeps laughing. I like snow from indoors, I like to have snowball fights that are very short, after about 20 minutes I tend to get really mean about it and things get outta hand. Like bleeding teeth and noses from ice balls. Things tend to build and build up more and more...the "I will get you for that" mentality
Rohugh
I remember snow from when I lived in England. Now here on the southern coast of Spain it is not an option.
I do not miss it at all, cold, wet miserable cold stuff!
