It is snowing here in our Country (The Netherlands).
And it didn't stop yet. In some city's there is more then 50 centimeter snow. That didn't happen in more then 20 years ago.

And it will be snowing untill sunday. Some people can't go to work because they can't get out of there houses. Cars cannot drive. Children can't go to school.

I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to.I guess. 
I once biked when it was 43 below out (55 with windchill) and had to plow near half a kilo through 50cm drifts. All I can say, is thank god it was soft, and I'm lucky to still have the boys. I couldn't get home from the university for two freaking days. And I didn't have a change of clothes. It was fun as hell.

It rubs the lotion on its skin... 
I've never seen snow... Seen hail but no snow. I took the last two summers to go to every state in the conntinital united states but never saw snow. The old people told me that one time it snowed here in 72 but that was a lil before my time...

So I guess what I am saying is that I wouldnt know snow if it formed a sphereical shape and hit me in the face

Daniel, there are clowns. 
Heh, heh, for at least the past two months there hasn't been a single day where I haven't seen snow. Though, I'm sure there are many Dinkers out there who have gone even longer right now.

It is getting worse. It has been snowing since yesterday. Today and tomorrow it is gone snow again. ANd the temperature will be at least -10 C tonight so every road and every driveway will be ice. Very dangerous.

By the way I really hate snow. There is only one thing nice and that is throwing snowballs.
At every one you want to tease.

Now I am thinking about It is also good for the economy. Because the are a lot of little accidents so the insurance companies have to pay damages. And the customer has to go to the garage to let the damage fixed. So the Euro will be spended a lot. So it is good for all the employees to get enough work.

So in the end everything has its good and bad things.

The roads will only be ice if it's warm for a while and then gets cold again.... if you get 0C most likely they will.

Hate snow? Ha! You obviously don't know of all the other good things about it!

Here in South Dakota, we get plenty of snow. A few years back, we had 9 ft. drifts. Makes feeding cattle harder than hell, though.
