  I wish you could send some of your snow over here. I love the stuff, and I usually have to drive to the mountains to get to it.

    You can have it.

      Gather snow, mix with sweetened condensed milk and vanilla or peppermint extract, snow ice cream.

  Don’t ever move to a lake effect snow area… I miss those nights when multiple feet fell on us in upstate NY and the world was completely transformed. Outside sounds like an anechoic chamber from all the fat snowflakes absorbing all the sound; the crunch underfoot being the only thing you hear. Shoveling out the driveway to go rip e-brakes in the snow covered parking lots. Winter without snow is a half assed experience.

  Ice can fuck right off though.

    Why did you say don’t move there? It sounds like you liked it.

      Because OP hates snow. I like it.

    That region of Indiana is close enough to the Great Lakes that they do affect the weather there.

  I’m getting highs in the teens and no snow. I’d like to at least get some snow to go with the cold.

  Just gotta shovel mid-storm so that you don’t have too much snow to remove in one go.

    Thankfully, we have a weird old neighbor who has a riding mower that’s also a snow plow and he likes to ride on it, so he always does our yard because it’s fun for him. He also takes any big branches that fall in our yard (the house was built without disturbing the gigantic old oak trees that surround it) because, in his words, “I like to burn things.” Thankfully, he appears to keep that restricted to an oil drum in his yard.

    I like my weird old neighbor.

      I mean… If I could afford a riding lawnmower that would be me. I want to at some point find a broken washer to rip the drum out of. They make good fire pits for really big fires.

  We’re supposed to get ice, so I fully expect we’ll lose power at some point today. :(

  Why do people live in places where is snows so much. You guys are crazy.

  • starman2112@sh.itjust.works ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I mean the choices are snow ruins your life, sun ruins your life, or the Great Plains (the Great Plains have both plus tornadoes)

      I live in the middle zone. If you don’t mind the high elevation and dry air it isn’t bad.

  • Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Because its better than living where the sun tries to kill you?

    source
  • FlyingSquid@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I didn’t really have a a huge amount of choice in the matter, but let’s just say it has made my wife a lot happier than living in L.A.

    That said, we hopefully won’t be here much longer.

      LA is trash so that makes sense

      I had an acquaintance out here in California who eventually moved back to the Midwest. He wasn’t happy that he couldn’t get a good hot dog out here, which I suppose is kinda true.

  It could be worse. You could be just far enough south that you’re not going to get any at all ☹️

  As someone that hates the cold weather, this looks way beyond mildly infuriating.

  • FlyingSquid@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I spent 10 years in L.A.

    Lack of cold weather was one of the few things I miss about it.
