In the spirit of the off-season, what are y'all doing on this snow day? Are you working from home? Any snow day traditions? How are you staying warm?

Working from home. Staying warm by using the thought of shoveling and de-icing the driveway/walkways/cars to fuel my internal hate fire.

#*@&# off, Elsa. Winter needs to be over.

I'd be TEAM NO PANTS as well, except we like to keep the windows open to watch the snow. I am pretty sure our neighbors think we are weird enough already.

Right there with ya, all the schools in the area are closed, but I was at work 2 hours before it started snowing here, (it started around 7:00). *sigh*

There is nothing in the world like Thursday night in Blacksburg!

Knocking out some work in my home office and then bundling up the kids and heading out to play in it/shovel in a few hours.

About 7-9" of snow here in the Louisville, KY area. Working from home, then shoveling this long driveway after work.

Today is the other halfs bday and the kids wanted to throw her a Frozen Party and it has been snowing since 8am with no signs of slowing up, fate is not without a sense of irony apparently...

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:

I imagine "let it snow" on loop until kids are asleep?

Snow has started in Blacksburg now, just enough to start turning things white.

Started snowing here about 30 minutes ago (Roanoke).
IT currently is just this side of whiteout conditions. Visibility right now is about 150 yards. Can't see the mountain across the street at ~250 yards at all.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

It has already stopped snowing in Blacksburg. Looks by 4 everything will be long since over and done.

It snowed constant and heavy here until about 7 then drifted into occasional flurries and showers until about 9-10.

We ended with maybe 3 inches in Blacksburg/Christiansburg. Sounds like you got more.

We're having sleet and snow mixing in here in Lynchburg for about the past hour.

Have about eight to ten inches so far here in Sterling, Government closed so teleworking from the house and getting no responses from anyone. There might be a P bit of a S distraction for some of these 4 long hours that has me working on my Destiny.
