It's fun :)  I love snow.  Just kinda wish we didn't have it for like 6 months out of the year...

to me it seems like snow would be fun for a little while, but i'd be really scared to drive in it.  . 

Well, I've got a Jeep.  It's pretty good for snow driving.  Honestly, it's not that bad.  You get used to it.

I'm not afraid to drive in snow... I'm just afraid of how the other people drive in it ;)

yeah, thats the scariest part of driving in any weather condition.

Never heard anyone refer to snow as gross lol.

I'm sure you've seen it on tv...

its flakey or powdery when it falls from the sky, on the ground it can be powdery, or 'packing' snow which is snow that melted a bit and this is what you make snowballs out of, or it can be crusty (slightly melted snow refreezes). Its cold and wet and sticks to your clothes, making them wet when it melts.

i know what snow is like in that way, i just mean whats it like to live with?

is it fun or is it a nuisance?

Both.

It's fun! It can be a pain if you have a lot to do though.

I like it because it's pretty....

I can't even imagine not having seen snow!! You're missing out on so many fun things .... skiing is ssoooooo much fun!! I HIGHLY encourage you to take a ski vacation.

Snow's good, it's the freezing cold that gets to me. You get used to driving in it and get winter tires that grip better and it's not that hard to drive in as long as you take it slow.

This is so cute lol

I live in the north...so snow to me is nothing. Its fun to see people wonder what snow is :)

Its wet, cold and messy. But its also sparkly  and beautiful when it has just fallen.

Happy Holidays!

Im not very coordinated.  A mixture of being new to snow and skiis just might be the end of me. Wink  but one day i definately want to exerperience at least a few days of "real" winter.    in south florida we dont really have any seasons except for summer.  the leaves dont change color in fall either.  im going to have to see that one day too.

I would love snow if we could have it while it was 75 degrees outside.  It's not hard to drive in if you know what you're doing.  Come to Michigan in early fall and you'll see leaves changing that will take your breath away.

I LOVE SNOW. It makes the cold weather worth it. Every time I see it, I instantaneously smile and want to run around outside like a little kid. (I'm a very serious person, this never happens!) But I think if you've never seen it you might hate it. After you come inside, you clothes and things are damp and gross. This doesn't bother me 'cause I just peel them off and take a hot bath and drink some yummy soup or cocoa!

I went skiing for the first time about two years ago. I ran into a snowboarder and had to be carted off the mountain in a sled. =/ But I did it again the next year, so maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment? My fiance is a fantastic skiier, so I have to catch up!

I was raised in the North, though, and so snow always reminds me of home. I'm a bit sentimental.

I am also from south Florida and never seen snow. I think it would be fun to see it a few times but I wouldn't want to live where it snows a lot. I love the sun and heat. I get cold really easy.

Come on over to Wisconsin. We have LOTS OF SNOW.

It is awesome.

You can't snowboard on grass.

It isn't scary to drive in unless you drive like a moron when it's slippery out.

I deliver prescriptions all day long and I am in my car 90 percent of the day. It's not scary

 i get cold really easily too.  i dont thik i'd want to live where therese snow, but i definately want to see it.

I would never want to live without winter snow.

I live in Singapore where it's always hot and sunny! I want to see snow too. I have only experienced winter twice and that was when I was in China.

I really don't know that I could live somewhere without some winter snow and the changing colors in fall and all that...
