You know what, I love hearing this. For the first time, I don't have to whine about snow.
Anyways, that sucks.
We usually get bad storms in like January and lose power, but not for long. I remember we had a bad snow/ice storm when I was in grade 3 or 4 and we had the week off school, and then there was another snow storm on Monday. We used to miss a lot of school because of snowstorms.
I remember we got like up to our waist in snow and NY, NY or somewhere got like two inches and they were in shock.
