Anyone else get this way after being outside for two days or is it just a coincidence?


No chance that was a coincidence. I saw several videos where people were burning the snow and it had little black dots in it.

I think blizzard conditions are determined by the snow and the amount of wind.

Hoping that 310 and all of 90 can open up by the afternoon

I drive to Houma from NO everyday and that drive is so long with the current options. No problems taking Airline to Lutcher crossing Veterans bridge then going through Thibodaux, but it's just so long.

Not sure if it’s a coincidence or not but myself and two of my kids are sick as a dog right now. I have a fever I can’t shake, no appetite, hot flashes/chills, headaches, etc


I started with that last Friday, turns out it was the flu. Took me down from Friday morning until Tuesday afternoon

Snow + wind (gusting > 35 mph) + visibility (reduced to 0.25 miles or less)

The snow doesn't have to be actively falling either... snow from the ground being kicked up by the wind can cause blizzard conditions as well

How in the hell did you coonasses manage to get more snow, in one day, than we've seen the entire season here in Idaho?


Being honest, and now looking back at what happened this week, it shook me mentally to see this in my home of south Louisiana. I’m still not over the incongruity of it. Just being honest with myself, and don’t know if anyone else experienced it in this way.

It was joyful but I am drained.
