Yes, nothing is quite as relaxing as watching a nice lightning storm. Sucks when they knock the power out when you're using the computer though, or flicker it on and off repeatedly and kill the power supply.

Why don't you have a UPS then? If the storms are that bad you NEED one just to shut down your computer properly.

I have never liked winter storms in *that* sense. They have never gotten me out of school, they've just sucked.

But as a meteorologic (word?) phenomena, they are somewhat interesting.

(Atmospheric sciences FTW.)

Yea well look at New York, some parts of it is under 12 feet of snow.

They cost money.

You would actually spend less to buy a UPS than to get a new PSU everytime one yells out a blood curdling scream.

Here in New Mexico (Where it usually never snows)... We got five inches of snow. This was about the 10th time this winter that it snowed, when usually we get nothing. Nobody knows how to drive in the snow here so everybody is just telling me how much the don't like it. That's what really bugs me.

I'm not sure how much snow we ended up getting on Tuesday.

It's not like it'd be easy to just stick a ruler in it and measure it; the shit's frozen solid.

I don't mind winter storms, but if it's not snow I don't want much of it. I like light rain and light wind, but I hate thunderstorms and anything involving high winds. This is not helped by having lived in a place where power went out entirely too easily, and dealing with that for two years, and living in a trailer means that any wind I can hear makes me nervous =/

UPS costs < $50? It only happened once, because the power was flashing on and off at some silly speed.
