OMG Snow?

The worst part about snow is all the morons who can't drive. I don't understand how someone can be so horrible at driving that they slide into curbs or other cars. Driving in the snow is not hard. First of all, you don't have to go 90 km/h. The speed you drive is not relative to how cool you are. Secondly, if you start to slide take your foot off the goddamn brake. Third, you suck at driving, don't bother.

The bus couldn't get to my stop because of the snow, so I had to catch transit and then walk for 20 minutes. I ended up being 50 minutes late for school... and then left early because I was sick. Today was not my day :(

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - More snow has arrived in many parts of the Lower Mainland, and a lot more is expected in the next few hours. News1130 meteorologist Russ Lacate says areas throughout the region will see between five to 10 centimetres of snow beginning overnight.

That means some students may get the day off. Tune into News1130's morning show and we'll let you know of any school closures.

A number of extreme weather programs have kicked in in the Lower Mainland. Pastor Robin Ross at St. Paul's Presbyterian Church in Mission says mats, blankets and food are being prepared.

He says the real problem is having to turn away people when the extreme weather programs are not in effect.

I guess school may be closed tomorrow.
