School isn't already out for Christmas?Originally posted by jay santos View PostHow much snow did people get? We got A LOT. School canceled.
Lehi - Traverse Mountain - got at least 6 inches and it was still falling steadily at 6:30 this morning.
Of course there were no snowplows (asking for actual services as recompence for taxes paid is somehow viewed as petulance by Lehi officials). Getting off the big hill was quite an adventure. W/O all-wheel drive, I'm not sure it was possible to get out of our subdivision. Smaller cars w/o AWD were all over the place.
But the weather is strange here. I have no idea how much they got down in 'lower-Lehi' - possibly nothing? Could have been all rain. The extra 100-150 feet in altitude does amazing things to precipitation.
The strangest thing about this snow fall - no wind. I don't think I've ever experienced snow here when it wasn't blowing all over the place.

We got dumped on in Provo. 8 inches and still falling.
They should have canceled school. Cars were stuck everywhere by the high school this morning. What a mess."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

I like the term "getting dumped on" for snow, but one should know how to use it. Especially if one is a newspaper editor:Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostWe got dumped on in Provo. 8 inches and still falling.

We had 2 inches last night that has dissappeared under a constant rain this morning:anger:"The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

Christmas us usually a great day to ski too, especially in the morning. Lift lines aren't long.

Some of your children are still in school? I thought everyone was out already. The Puffy Check are playing in the snow as we speak.
We received around 6 or 8 inches in Alpine area. Took me over an hour to get downtown this morning. Currently snowing lightly but steadily in the downtown SLC area.
Love it, though. Sure beats looking at all that fugly mud and dead trees everywhere.
We are going to Park City this afternoon and spending the night. Should be an adventure driving up through Parley Parker Pratt's Canyon.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

When we are visiting Utah we always go skiing early on Christmas and, when open, Thanksgiving day. It's the best time to go.Originally posted by pellegrino View PostChristmas us usually a great day to ski too, especially in the morning. Lift lines aren't long. We used to do it every year.

Statman I live in Lower Lehi although more towards Eagle Mountain pretty close to Utah Lake. We got about 6-8 inches as well.
Looks to be melting quickly though.*Banned*
