Another month, another owl.

I've just been reading about this terrible snowstorm that's coming (or possibly already arrived). It looks really scary, as does the cyclone approaching Australia. Stay safe, Americans and Australians on my flist.

I was very doubtful about these weather reports, since A) We were promised a snowpocalypse this year already and B) they said the real danger was an ice storm, and we've been well below freezing for weeks now with big fat layers of snow on the ground. How could it possibly rain?

As I type this, I hear the freezing rain hitting my window, sounding very much like wind-blown sand. It stung like the dickens to walk through and everything is covered in a gray sandpaper-texture glaze.

YUM! I hope we get a day off of work for this, but I kinda doubt it.

If we had weather like that, everything would shut down for a month. In fact, it pretty much did in December.

No such luck. Here I am at work. It was still above freezing this morning, so the roads are all slushy, not icy, though the snow I had to walk through to get to my car was still thick, with a nice crunchy ice-layer on top.

Dang it. Just once I wish it would be bad enough that they'd close places down -mainly the one I work at. :P

Or maybe Cleveland is just too invested in its image of itself as being old-hat at this kind of weather.

I would imagine the place has a tough rep and wants to keep it?
