Ever

Yes, but I could probably count how many times I've seen more than a dusting on two hands with fingers to spare.

Living in Canada there are 2 seasons: construction and winter.

I think Ive seen the snow like 6 times in my entire life. All on vacation of course. But I think that will change now that we have Emery.

Whaaaaaat? Never ever? I guess snow is kind of a far drive for you.

I am Canadian...so yeah, a little bit.

Yes but only 4-5 times. Thats what I get for living in the south most of my life.

Are you in Montreal? I've lived in different Canadian cities, and never felt this way, until I lived in Montreal.

I said yes, but according to my husband (who grew up in a snow belt) what we get in southern Ohio doesn't really count as snow. We typically get multiple 1-4" snowfalls during the winter, but anything less than a foot doesn't count according to him.

I agree with your H, Dayton gets nothing! I also grew up in the snow belt.

Yes, and where I'm from you don't even get a day off unless you get a foot or more in a day

I feel you, we have to get a foot within three hours to have the day off. I make it by thinking at least we don't get hurricanes or massive bugs. Lol

I've seen snow, but I've never seen snow falling.

I used to like snow until two winters ago when the snow was above the top of our swingset. Every weekend was a blizzard so we couldn't go anywhere. At this point I think I could live without ever seeing snow again.

It's snowed here 3 times since we've been here. Last time we got 6 inches which is a down right blizzard for the south.

Nothing better than a non snow snow day. Oh its going to be 20 degrees and it MIGHT rain? Shut down the state were having a movie day

Count me in on "Less than 6 inches isn't shit" group. I laugh when 2 inches shuts down roads in some states

I get the sentiment, but these types of statements frustrate me. In states that don't have snow or freezes, there is NO infrastructure in place to manage it. We don't salt roads, have appropriate tires, or have any experience of learning to drive in (or even recognize) those conditions.

We had a freeze last winter that shut Houston down for a day. There was no snow involved, but in 1 24-hr period there were over 800 wrecks in the city. It _absolutely_ makes sense to shut down the roads when that's the alternative. I felt lucky that I have a company with safety as it's top priority and I had already been given permission to work from home that day.
