Halloween + snow =

[AccountingDrone]

meh, western NY lake effect weather baby here, went trick or treating with snowfall frequently back in the 60s and early 70s. Dress warm, and get lots of candy by teh sympathy effect [oooo poor kids, out in the snow ... ]

Ugh. It is nasty out right now but no snow yet (not quite cold enough but getting close).

Little Bits left this morning to go with her boyfriend to Fairmont, WV for a campus visit at FSU and she sent me a text that they had ran into snow. Thank goodness her boyfriend's Dad is with them and driving

My first year that i lived in Pennsylvania had snow on Halloween. It wasn't a good sign for the rest of the winter there.

Instead of cursing it... use it to your advantage!

Like Snowballs with red dye in them.
Or Snowmen with pumpkin heads.

Me likes.

Apparently it hasnt snowed in my part of Pennsylvania (we're near Maryland) in October since 1972. I was born in 1983, hence my confusion and utter distaste for the white stuff flying outside of my window.

I take back my previous post. It started snowing shortly after I posted it.

My coworker is getting married today, too...

20 years ago we had the famous Halloween blizzard. 13 inches of snow fell here, and 2 feet fell in the twin cities metro area.

I was in my first year at the University. I walked from my dorm to the 8 am class. 3 people showed up. The class went on. I then went to my 9 am class, and the professor showed up and asked why was I here. The University canceled classes before 8. I wasn't happy, and went back to the dorms to relax and play video games the rest of the day with my roomie.

10-15" of the stuff.

I expect work to be flying busy tonight. If they can't stay out during a hurricane, then they can't stay out during the actual storm. Sigh.

I hope I don't get stuck with...

100 popcorn balls. The dollar coins I can live with, but not the yummy, crunchy, stick-to-your-teeth snackies. I'm in the southern tier of NY, and we're supposed to be getting 3 in. Blech!

I grew up in the interior of BC - all us kids had our halloween costumes designed to fit over snowsuits! We *ALWAYS* had snow before halloween, without fail.

CT here, just a dusting so far, and it looks like its slowing down.


People are freaking out though, like they always do for the first storm. As long as we don't lose power I am okay. I'm just bummed I had to turn my heat on.

You all have my deepest, deepest sympathies. I hope you are still able to keep all of your plans.

Snow seems to always show up whenever there's something special or fun going on, and it ruins everything.

Be careful, and rest assured, within a month or less (most likely less at the rate we're going, we already had a mix Thursday) I will be bitching and moaning about our weekly 6-12 inch dumpings, or daily inch or so dumpings.
