Academy BLVD sucks driving all year round now. last time i was in the springs about a month or two back, it was a tuesday at 2pm and traffic totally sucked.

I-25 is usually blocked up, and from what i hear Powers isnt any better.

Glad i live in Littleton.

I would hate to live in snow like that...bah. I like driving my car year round. But its been chilly walking to class lately. I think weve had misty rain for two days straight now...oh well, it could be pouring I guess.

Try waking up to 85 degrees in the morning and 100% humidity. Then going to around 100 in mid-day...still with 100% humidity. Fun stuff.

Out here in West Texas, we are just looking to get some cooler nights at the track to keep intake temps down!

But as a former resident of North Dakota, (yeah people do live in that state) I have awoken to many a day where you couldn't even get out of the HOUSE because you were literally SNOWED IN!

Little early for that much snow isnt it?? Anyhow, here in the Tampa Bay area (Florida) it's decent today just sticky as heck from the humidity. Im getting rather tired of Florida summers myself, but I'll never be prepared for that much snow. Snow is for vacation time when I go to Tahoe or Steamboat.

Of course, it was 65 degrees on christmas day here last year (or at least right before christmas break.)

Heh, back in the military when i was stationed in Ohio (yeah that sucked) it got so freaking cold out it was painful.
Then you get a nice ice storm to wash by and blanket everything in a sheet of ice.

i hate cold weather. but i hate tsunami's and hurricanes more. <grin>

2003 Polaris 700 RMK In Alaska, I think everone has a snow machine.

When it gets really really cold (-50) I'll take some shots next to the bank sign with the GT. That'll get everyone crying.
