There is a winter alert in most part of Fort Collins. Its going to snow heavily for next two days. Having moved here from a tropical country, this will be my first snow experience in my life. Have you been out in snow before?

Wow talk about a small world I actually live in good ole foco :) I would like to give you some advice about the snow. Snow can be wonderful and it can be scary and horrible all at the same time. First of all when driving in the snow go slow the slower the better. When it comes to snow there is no such thing as driving to slow. If you have a 4 wheel drive do not think that you are immune to the ice and sliding in the snow they work great for getting through the snow but like all cars and trucks when your on ice and moving you can not stop quick so please just take your time. The next thing is to bundle up if you do go out side as its very cold. If your going to be out shoveling the snow then take it easy and do not over do it more people die from heart attacks shoveling their sidewalks than there should be. The next thing I would say is to stay indoors and enjoy it as it falls. If you do not need to be out then do not go out. There is usually nothing that will not wait till the weather clears out so avoid going out in it and you will be fine. Most importantly welcome to Fort Collins and welcome to my lot. I am sure your going to love both.

Hi there Sramanujamk! I am from the Philippines where there is no snow. I know that having too much snow is dangerous especially if you will drive. In spite of this, I would still love to experience snow. It is one of the things that makes me want to come and visit a different country someday. Most of my relatives from my mother side are in the United States and I am so amazed with their stories about the snow. I am also seeing their pictures and even pictures. They play with snow, make snowmen, snow angels and they have snowball fights. I would love to be able to do that too, someday.
