Now, first let me say, that I am well aware that the forecast will change 15 times by then. I am a weather junkie. I wake up every morning to Weather Channel, and usually fall asleep to it as well. I KNOW about weather and how the weathermen change their forecast a lot!!!
Second of all, I realize that snow is not a big deal for some people... especially my "Yankee" friends. However, it is a HUGE deal to me. Not because I may or may not get the day off when it does, but just because I love it.
I love all the fun things you can do in it...
I love how crazy of us "southern folk" get over it...
I love how everyone just stops and enjoys it...
I love how my granny calls to tell me to be careful on the "bad roads" even if it is not sticking.
I love how all the bread and milk disappear...
I love how we all think we need bread and milk...
I love how Johnnie-Lynn calls me while it is falling and sings "Look at all that snow snow."
I love how I get hysterical and jump and dance around when it starts, even if it is just a little bit. Just ask my roommate. He thinks I am crazy!!!
I love how everyone talks about it when it's on the way...when it's here... and after it's gone...
I love how everybody has to get home at the first sign of it...
I love how the weathermen seem to get giddy talking about it...
I love how I get on the phone and call everybody on my contact list to tell them it is snowing... I even call my friend Teri in Utah who probably could really care less if it is snowing in S.C.
I would love to live somewhere like Boone where they get lots of snow, but not too much. I think I would hate it too if I lived in a lake effect snow area like Buffalo or Cleveland. They get like 6 feet at the time if it is really really bad.
All this said, I will now be glued to the TV for the next week to see how the forecast changes, and to see what we may get, if any... Let the anticipation begin!!!

I think that "system" is the same one that will make our HIGH 5 degrees!!! I love the snow too!(Although by March it gets pretty old!)
You can only have snow if we get some here in GA, too. I don't need a whole lot, but enough to cover the ground. And, enough to make at least one bowl of snow cream!!
I love the snow too. The best part is exploring the roads on the way to Waffle House, then coming back home to make Hot Chocolate, put on a movie and build a tiny snowman. :)

Yes!! Snow you say. Ask me or Melissa about the snow dance. We may have found a new member but you really have to know the dance. Do You? I haven't heard the "word". Sorry I've got to go to watch the weather channel. Mitchel will hate the next few days.

This is exactly why you live where I do. I'm just far enough north to occasionally get some snow, but far enough south that it's so common they don't cancel school for it just being forecasted!!
Hey Son!!! YOU KNOW I LOVE THE SNOW ALSO!!! Hadnt heard this yet, but I sure hope it SNOWS and SNOWS. One Huge Snowfall per year or 1 or 2 or 20!!!
Reporting Live from The Weather Channel I am Jed Dearybury. I know where you gotthe "Weatherman" Syndrome... MAUDIE and ME!!!
I'm glad I am not the only weather junkie in the crowd. I guess people call us "geeks" behind our backs. I get ready for work every morning to the Weather Channel, because the "local on the 8's" tell me how much time I have left to get ready! Yeah, I'm a nerd!
We are in great anticipation of snow in our house as well.... our luck it will snow Friday or Monday when you are already out of school.
