Not me.. If we had that much snow, I would wait until it melted before going outside.
When it snows once every 5 or 6 years, snow causes all sorts of problems. Even if you can drive in it. The average speed on the local freeway is somewhere between 80 MPH and splattering your brains on the center divider. And I am not kidding. One stretch of local highway is affectionately called "Death Highway" by the locals because there are 3 or 4 fatal accidents a week. Now mix in snow and ice. People wonder why it only takes 3 flakes of snow within a half-hour period to close the schools here. Its to protect the children from the idiots.
Hm, if you waited until it melted, depending how cold it gets there, you might be considered a hermit by some.
Sounds to me like something needs to be done about that highway if there are that many fatalities...that's so sad. UGH! These "idiots" need to realize the speed limit is non-applicable when the weather is bad.:erm: I drive like a grandma when the weather is bad...going in the ditch or having an accident just isn't worth the risk.

Tonight its supposed to get down to freezing (32 degrees Farhenheit exactly). Tomorrow it is supposed be 51 degrees. Supposed to rain though.. Which is good. We have had more rain so far this Winter than the previous 18 months.

Oh wow...pretty nippy for southern CA! It's supposed to warm up to nearly that here today...28? F. Same thing happened here...it was a very dry summer, which wasn't necessarily a bad thing considering how humid it sometimes gets here.
Well, I am at 2600 feet elevation in the high desert of California. It will be warmer in the Los Angeles basin and near the coast as well as further south towards San Diego. Local Ski Resorts are happy though.. First time in like 4 years that they didn't have to make snow before the January rains.
ive never seen or touched snow in real life... right now its 75 degrees and im kinda chilly... thats Texas for you.. well south-east texas around beaumont, houston.
