Oh come one, its December and its +7 to 2 C here (yes we are not so fucked up to have it all in Fahrenheit and inches, we have it all in Celsius and meters like normal people) when usually around this time it is -10 to 30 Celsius. Yeah, I do like warm weather, but why in the would I need only one season, when its barely + 10 to 20 Celsius?
You show we that kind of picture and dare to call it a blizzard???
that's how looks like when it's just snowing...blizzard. .. buahahahahaha

if we get 12 inches we have to pray schools close. And even then no business would think about closing.
Cause even that isnt enough. I also think we are the only city that uses 100% salt to clear roads. Probably has something to do with the fact we live right next to the great salt flats.
I remember one storm I was driving in where I could not see the front of my hood it was so thick. Now that was fun. Drive and pray baby. Granted I was only doing about 35mph so even if i hit someone it would not have been to bad. The worst we had I believe was in 95 when we had 39 inches in 36 hours.
As for hot vs cold, ill take cold any day. You can put a coat on in the cold. In the heat all you can do is suffer or stay inside all day.

Sounds almost like Cleveland. Except it gets too cold here for salt, so they use a mixture of salt and some other crap. Rarely do businesses close here due to snowfall though. There could be 3-4 feet of snow and walmart would still be open. I have seen places close if it gets cold though... usually -5F (-20C) or below, but that's like a once in 10 years type thing. And it's usually the wind chill that's the killer.

In a city which has snow once every four years and average annual snowfall of a few millimeters, everybody's just looking for an excuse to have a snow day.
