"In the lane, ain't it pretty?"

I woke this morning to 6" atop my car, and a similar amount in the unplowed streets.

A WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM EST THIS EVENING.

SNOW WILL CONTINUE TO FALL MODERATE TO HEAVY AT TIMES THROUGH MID MORNING. THE SNOW WILL CHANGE TO SLEET FROM SOUTH TO NORTH BY LATE MORNING AND THEN POSSIBLY TO FREEZING RAIN THIS AFTERNOON. SNOW AND SLEET ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM 5 TO 10 INCHES. A LAYER OF ICE WILL BE POSSIBLE ON TOP OF THE EXPECTED SNOW AND SLEET ACCUMULATION. THE PRECIPITATION INTENSITY WILL TAPER OFF SIGNIFICANTLY THIS AFTERNOON.

UNTREATED ROADWAYS ARE SNOW COVERED AND VERY SLIPPERY THIS MORNING. TRAVEL IS NOT RECOMMENDED.

A WINTER STORM WARNING IS ISSUED WHEN AN AVERAGE OF 6 OR MORE INCHES OF SNOW IS EXPECTED IN A 12 HOUR PERIOD OR FOR 8 OR MORE INCHES IN A 24 HOUR PERIOD. A WARNING IS ALSO ISSUED WHEN SIGNIFICANT SNOW AND/OR ICE ACCUMULATION IS FORECAST THAT WILL MAKE TRAVEL DANGEROUS. TRAVEL WILL BE SLOW AT BEST ON WELL TREATED SURFACES...AND QUITE DIFFICULT ON ANY UNPLOWED OR UNTREATED SURFACES.

The other day my dad suggested that 6" is the cutoff for unplowed material that my car will get stuck in. Scary. I'm glad we went grocery shopping yesterday. Looking across the street at the neighbors cleaning their cars off, their cars have 8" and I think we only have 6" on ours b/c of the pine trees overhead.

I feel bad for the poor birdies who usually come to my feeder - not only have I not filled it in a while, but now it's covered with snow! I'm goign to have to trek out there and clean the car off. Especially before that inch of ice is laid down atop it.

You Are An ESFP

The Performer You are a natural performer and happiest when you're entertaining others. A great friend, you are generous, fun-loving and optimistic. You love to laugh - and you like almost all people equally. You accept life as it is, and you do your best to make each day fantastic. In love, you are a smooth talker and incorrigible flirt. While you get into relationships easily, you don't tend to stick around when times get tough. At work, you do well in groups. You keep everyone laughing through difficult tasks. You would make a good actor, designer, or counselor. How you see yourself: Capable, fair, and efficient When other people don't get you, they see you as: Incompetent, stubborn, and silly

Grammar quizmeme

You Scored an A

You got 10/10 questions correct. It's pretty obvious that you don't make basic grammatical errors. If anything, you're annoyed when people make simple mistakes on their blogs. As far as people with bad grammar go, you know they're only human. And it's humanity and its current condition that truly disturb you sometimes.

The It's Its There Their They're Quiz

This quiz annoyed me b/c there's basically two questions: its/it's, and they're/there/their. There's lots more grammatical errors out there than just those two and it didn't need to repeat the same questions umpteen different ways. Oh well. I know those two homophones.

Nerd type

Huh, it thinks I'm a drama nerd more than a Sci/Math nerd. I would've said Sci/Math top, then gamer/computer. Interesting.

What Be Your Nerd Type? Your Result: Drama Nerd   You sure do love the spotlight and probably have a very out-going and loud personality. Or not. That's just a stereotype, of course. Participation in the theatre is something to be very proud of. Whether you have a great voice for musicals, or astounding skills for dramas/comedies; keep up the good work. We need more entertainment these days that isn't television and video games (not that these things are bad, necessarily.)
