OT Here Comes the Snow #Snowpocalypse

[THE HCP]

2004, my senior year of high school we were off for almost two weeks of school because it snowed a bunch and then freezing rain on top. Took forever to melt.

I was stuck over at my buddies and we just got baked the whole time.

The last sentence explains EVERYTHING!

1989.

He's been meaning to go dig up his treasure for years

Okzy, okay, twist my arm. so I'll go out and do the dirty job myself.

 

[Lanny]

The last sentence explains EVERYTHING!

Whereas I could get baked without the use of snow and ice.

Just escaped the oncoming snowpocalypse!

We'll be here for the start of it, but now I see the snow might last through the end of next week, in which case, I am glad I'm leaving for sunshine Tuesday AM.

Apocalyptic rain this morning. Getting groceries was a major production. Took an hour to get to Berkeley. Got home, gave car pat on the dashboard. Not leaving home until Monday and then taking BART.

Ooh, the storm is threatening
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Yeah, I'm going to fade away

I highly doubt it will snow all week. I’m not old but almost all of the winter storms that I can remember were only a day or two of snow.

a week would be alright with me though

That’s what they said and I think it was 2008 I think it was? We ended up with like 15 inches of snow and it snowed all week. So it’s not impossible.

That’s what they said and I think it was 2008 I think it was?

But do you think it was?

I read about Lewis and Clark's arrival and stay in Oregon and they said there was a long, long stretch of flood rains followed by a huge windstorm that knocked over most of the trees in site.....I think that one trumps the modern storms....apparently this happened to the entire NW at the time.....lot of Brits left Washington after that storm...giving up settlements. I think it was Stephen Ambrose's "Undaunted Courage" great book....

 

[andalusian]

Doesn't stand up to 1964

Or the ice age.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Both of those were minor pimple pops compared to the big bang!

So you're driving to Mexico and then back up I-5?

He means he'll go east, around the earth and approach PDX via the mouth of the Columbia.
