The human made stuff is the only reliable stuff we have so go all out. Maybe get a machine to make your own snow as a lot of people do in the South.

I wanted the immersive experience so i opened all the windows in the home and I dressed for buffalo weather! When I was somewhere around 8 years old and we had the snowless 80s (well nearly so) I decided to make my own snow. I took my mom's talcum powder (this was before we knew it was dangerous lol) and I sprinkled it on our fans....desk fans, ceiling fans, everything, and turned them all on to make my own snow. The end result was a layer of white on everything....the carpet, the bed, the couch, the sofa, the TV.....everything. When they came home they wondered what happened.... I said LOOK IT SNOWED !!!!! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wannabehippie Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Are we going to get a quick freeze once the cold front passes on Friday. Meaning sidewalks, roads get a glaze of ice from the rain that fell freezing over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastalplainsnowman Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 20+ years on this and predecessor boards and I've never asked this sort of question, but I'm desperate so here goes: Relative has a flight from LI to FL tomorrow afternoon, returning back here late Friday night. With respect to the timing of the storm impacts, those seem like maybe the least awful timeframes given the circumstances, but wondering folks' thoughts on the likelihood those flights will be impacted due to residual delays, impacts in other cities the planes might be coming from etc. Maybe it's as much a bad weather travel experience question as much as a weather question. Would really appreciate any insight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cfa Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 We get a decent wind event associated with the most potent front in a very long time, followed by a much needed mid-winter warm up (the best kind). Winter’s treating me nice so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather it be mild too, it’s the extreme cold that I hate, but knowing there’s a warm up on the other side of this cold takes the sting out just a little for me. I expect to see many more potholes after this rain + deep freeze, which always sucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem now, as much as it may also be true that fewer kids, generally, might be interested in venturing outside, is lack of opportunity. When I was a kid, there was only one guy on the block with a snowblower. Now it seems like 75% do, and we all take care of the 25% who don't. Also, the days of the 15 year old landscaper with a nice clientele of 8 lawns are mostly over as it became tougher to compete with adults who could do the same at scale. Then there's newspaper delivery, where a similar thing happened. I understand why all those things happened, but a definite side effect was less opportunity for kids to get some real life work experience. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
