yeah, so we got snow....lots of snow, in some places close to a whole foot (very top of anthem/7hills area)

Summer tires do not work in the snow...i got stuck on a huge hill for an hour until i got some help from some people to push me out, sorry for the crappy photos, old cell phone....but you get the idea.

some of the photos are from eary in the afternoon (around 3pm ish) and the two night pictures are from about 6 pm ish.

wow, we got that much last night all the way up here too....but i guess we are slightly more used to it. haha. be careful out there. people around here drive like idiots when it snows, and we see it all the time. lol

Edit: i just realized this. how do you clear off your cars? i mean, i drive around with a snow brush/ice scraper in my car for 6 months of the year...but im sure you guys are pretty screwed right now.

Does vegas even have Snow Plows?

i had to use my hand...which had frost bite on it like no other lol. yeah its pretty bad, there are about a hundred million accidents in my area and my car can bearly drive with my 245 summer streched tires. it was rediculous that i got stuck on a hill for an hour...also very scary lol. not to mention i was wearing a short sleeve shirt.....

LMAO the video of the strip made me laugh. the guy at the end think he is Enimem trying to freestyle?

I heard it snowed in Malibu yesterday too.

It snows every once in a while. Some time back in the late 60s it snowed so hard here that all the roads were closed for 24 hours. Most of the Mazda peeps here have not be alive long enough to see the extremes.

Snow plows? Why would you want snow plows when the snow only lasts for a few hours. I's too dam warm here for it to stay. Surprise, surprise we really do have them but they have been converted to clean up after a flash flood. Now they have them on Mt. Charleston as it's 11,000 feet and inundated with snow.

Well at least you experience what we do... lol. Do you guys even have shovels...LMAO!! Picture what you got 1million times higher...lol!

California got snow also..:lol2: Soon the poles will shift and we will be the warmer climate!!! :)

Isn't Vegas the desert country?

Isn't Vegas the dessert country?


Yeah, I heard the pie and cake there is fantastic! :lol:

yep, vegas is dessert country... nothing but sweets and bonbons galore. can't walk 10' without hitting a puddle of chocolate syrup. that's actually sugar, not sand you see.

:)

wow that sucks guys, on the bright side it hasn't snow in philly and east coast :):):) lol!

Well at least you experience what we do... lol. Do you guys even have shovels...LMAO!! Picture what you got 1million times higher...lol!
Shovels???? are you talking about those items that you dig up cactus with? If you were not careful you could have slept thru the "snow in Vegas":sleep: :sleep:

There may be a global climate shift but it would be terrible - to be a maple leaf :uhh: :lol2: To have maples growing next to desert palms:uh:

Apparently some people don't realize the fact that it hardly ever snows in Vegas and this is a lot of snow--for Vegas or any other place that usually do not get snow :uhh:

It's EXPECTED the east coast and midwest get SNOW. :eyetwitch how hot does summer temps get over there? eh?

Yes, but it's a dry heat. :)
We got a few inches over night (in Chicago). The 8 was bottoming out a few times on the streets. I'm not lowered yet.

LOL... figures.

haha, yea were going through a blizzard right now as alneilson mentioned, they were saying 10-15 inches yesterday but Im not sure if we quite got that much overnight, its still a lot though.

Wanna see snow...check my thread for the vid if the power doesn't run out on us again in a bit... :)

Haha looks like Pittsburgh or better my backyard lol

well the snow is still around. its mostly in the places where the sun doesn't beat down all day. there is actually quite a bit more than you would expect still left. lets see how long it will last :DDDDD

pfft.. wah? Michigander.. that is nothing...
