Well isn't this just great. It's the Sunday after Thanksgiving when everyone is supposed to be leaving and what happens? The whole damn state is under a huge snowstorm, leaving me stranded 300 miles away from Boulder. I wouldn't mind this if this was the middle of the semester, but there's only nine days left and I have so many projects due this week. I'm going miss all of my classes tomorrow and probably some on Tuesday, putting me back even further because of missed classes from being sick for two weeks. Perfect. Anyone else stranded somewhere after the holiday weekend or just getting crap ass weather?

:tree:

I hate snow too; just like it for the holidays.

:santa:

Weather's great here. :)

I love the snow.. I can't wait until it snows here :D

Ick, that sucks :(

It hasn't even snowed here yet. Twice, once it stayed and was gone the next day. I'll gladly take some, because snow seriously makes me happy...I don't know why...but it does.

It hasn't snowed here since 10/17. It only stuck around for a few hours and it all melted. :cheer:

ditto

Yeah, that made me very happy too.

I want it to snow here. :wallbang

It always melts so quick. :rolleyes:

I'm not looking foward to having to get up even earlier to clean off all the snow off my car in the freezing cold. I hate snow already and it's not even snowing yet.:o

I like the snow but I don't like being out in it.

i like snow, but after a couple of days i get tired of it.

I don't mind the snow so long as I dont have to drive in it. Hasn't really snowed here in Ohio yet.

Don't know if the snow caused this or not...

Jet crashes at Montrose Regional Airport
Dan Werner (Web producer)

MONTROSE - A charter jet carrying six people to South Bend, Ind., crashed Sunday morning on takeoff, killing three people and seriously injuring two others near the Montrose Regional Airport, which serves the Telluride Ski Area.

Allen Kenitzer, regional Federal Aviation Administration spokesman, said the pilot, flight attendant and one passenger died when the plane burst into flames after crashing through a fence.

Two other passengers suffered life-threatening injuries. The sixth person listed on the plane's manifest had not been found.

Kenitzer identified the plane as a CL-60 Challenger owned and operated by Global Aviation of Los Angeles, a charter service company. There was snow in the area but Kenitzer said he did not know if it was a factor.

Investigators from the FAA and National Safety Transportation Board were en route to the airport, 185 miles southwest of Denver.

Are you trying to stalk me or something?! That's my town. :lol: I live like 5 minutes away from the airport, too. I haven't heard about it, though.

I didn't know that. Boulder is much farther east though. :confused:

Where are you stuck at BTW?

Yes it does... maybe if I lived up north I would feel differently, I don't know.

god i hate snow. it's only useful when they dismiss you from school because of it. a few years ago the principal said we can go home if we make a snowman so we did.

Well Boulder is where I live most of the year because I go to school there. We moved out to Colorado about four years ago and live in Montrose now. That's the problem. I came for for Thanksgiving and now I'm stuck here and can't get back to Boulder to go to class.

Snow sucks. It gets really cold here. It can get to about 25 to 30 below at night sometimes. In the Yukon and N.W.T. and Nunavut it's worse. Snow would be okay if it were warm. But, unfortuantely, that's not the case.

Didn't you have any warning the snow was coming so you could have headed back to school sooner?

We got our snow on Wednesday and it's almost gone today. :)

I would love snow for a change! :rolleyes:
All we are getting here is RAIN and more RAIN:mad:
Hello??? Springtime is OVER!!!

I guess we're supposed to get some of that Colorado snowstorm in Iowa...which I didn't even know about. But whatever. All it would do is strand me at home...which is where I am a lot anyway. :p

It's alright, but after only a couple years, you get sick of driving thru it, and really sick of shoveling.

Yea well I, being the idiot I am, always expect everything to work around me. So I wanted the longest possible break I could get. I've heard stories that it's supposed clear up, but I've also heard it's going to be worse, so I don't know. This storm just hit the state at the perfect time, too. I-70 has been a haven for accidents all day long. There was no way I was going to venture out today...not with my limiting skills of driving through snow. Plus, it doesn't help that I have to go up and down and up and down and wind all around the mountains and valleys.

Looks like it should clear up tomorrow.

See, that's the part I'm not too worried about. When I'm on the flat land, I'll be fine. I'm just worried about going through Glenwood Canyon (Especially since they had a rockslide on Thanksgiving Day, creating huge potholes in I-70, so only one lane is open in both directions at 40 mph), Vail Pass and Loveland Pass. Living in the mountains is great. I mean, the scenery is just amazing, but it's a bitch trying to drive through them in the winter.

Where are you getting all this, Brent? I'd like to check some more information out tonight or tomorrow morning.

Nah, you're not an idiot. You can't help it if the weather sucks. I hate snow too. It sucks now that I work and I don't get snow days anymore like I did in school! :( Everytime it snows here, trees fall and the power goes out and my house is all electric, so I 'bout freeze. I hate living out in the boonies and having to camp out in my own house!!!!!! The power will go out and be out for a week! That's why I have no desire to go camping...because I've camped at home. It's not fun roughing it in your own home :D I would like to live somewhere warm all year long. Snow scares me. :eek:

Direct from the National Weather Service. :)

Well, it's mostly just wet slush along I-70, so I'm going to try it. It'll probably take longer than usual since I'll be driving slower, but the sooner I get there, the better. If I'm still alive, I'll report back here tonight.

"Informer, (something something something something something, a licky boom boom dam".

Yes, Snow sucks!!! Because it's been 11 years since his one hit that it's safe to say he's off the radar now, lol.

Wasn't she on Good Times? :confused: I kind of had my heart set on Hawaii. We will all go!!!!! I don't know if my car (my dodge colt named Trigger) will make it there or not. I'll pick you up when I head through Colorado. Now it might be a couple days, but I'll be there as soon as I can find my sunglasses!

I'll be ready in the morning. ;)

I haven't seen snow here for awhile, I want snow! I love it

Why don't you like snow, It's great! Even know its cold, the only thing I don't like about snow is when somebody throws a snowball at you:)

Well, when you live in the mountains, it's a matter of life or death when going through the passes from one side of the state to another. We had a huge blizzard over the weekend, so most of the passes were really badly snowing in and I missed a day of class.

oh, In Colorados, they're are lot of mountains! I think here in Louisiania the snow is not that bad.
