The White Death Approacheth

We're supposed to get some freezing rain and then 3-6 inches of snow tonight.  I'm sure every school in the are will be closed, except mine.  We never close, at least I only have 1 class tomorrow, I'm thinking of just skipping. 

[Hydrobond]

I just got an email entitled Campus Advisory, I thought I was in luck....
But I was wrong.

Class as usual.
No matter what.

[Tynstar]

Thats really nice of them.

God damn peopole can't drive when it snows. if I can make it home after drinking (and while eating) doing 40, then there is no reason people should be driving 5 miles per hour. This show fall isn't shit. >:0

People were driving like idiots before it even got here. Almost got into four wrecks on the way home.

Classes are cancelled from noon today until noon tomorrow.  This means that office hours are off, so I can't see the TA/Prof about a VHDL issue, but I still have my lab tomorrow.  They better extend it.

It's not even that bad out right now.  I guess they expect it to get much worse.

Damn, I never thought I would be mad about cancelled classes.

We are suppoosed to be getting a uber huge pile of snow tonight/tomorrow.

I have to be at work for 8am to do inventory :-/ then classes are 6-9pm :-/

Hopefully the first guess of an inch or 2 is right and not the second one of a couple feet.
I hate snow.

Ah, the joys of sleeping in. There is a nice coat of ice outside, and it appears as though the storm won't be ending anytime soon.

Me and my neighborhood buds were out wandering around in the storm. Transformers were blowing out all over the place. Really eerie looking, like three second extremely bright blue glows.

The power's out at the top end of my neighborhood, I'll be amazed if ours stays on through then night. Can't believe UC hasn't called off yet, no way I'll make it tomorrow.

[TraderJake]

Yeah, the wind load is going to fail a lot of power lines.

God, I sound like such an engineer with that statement.

Our internet was out for 8 hours today, and the power has been out for a cumulative 2 hours. I have this feeling that the shit is going to hit the fan once the wind picks up. I wonder if there are any photos of the high tension wire on 75... thank god for circuit breakers and MISO.

[Hydrobond]

Thank god for being prepared.
I've got food, wine and House. 
I'll be just fine.

[The Metamorphosing Leon]

Why in the hell is UC not called off yet? I'm supposed to be there in under six hours and ice is still falling out of the sky. Does this mean I should have written my paper?

[Izret101]

Everything is closed everywhere....

Springfield schools were the last to close(no suprise) and STCC didn't call in their closing until about 15-20 mins after the public schools.

I am kinda surprised that SPFLD schools got closed before 6am.
Usually it takes them way longer. Maybe it's because busses run earlier now....

Yeah, the wind load is going to fail a lot of power lines.

The ice and wind failed a tree in my back yard.

I can't believe UC, I could have made it easily yesterday when they cancelled everything. But today there's a delay when the roads are fucking covered in ice cubes! Are conditions like peachy in Clifton or what?
