Since some of us are still waiting for snow: Warp speed in a space ship or driving in a snow storm?

When you see this do you think...
Warp speed in a space ship or driving in a snow storm?

Actually when I’m driving in the snow it reminds me of warp speed.

so both, I guess.

I was driving in a snow storm last night. It was way more dense than the warp speed thing. With the high beams on you can't see a thing but a wall of snowflakes.

Thanks. Thats from a surprise powder day at Mammoth with the Grumps near the end of May.

Warp speed in a snowstorm.

Actually, I was driving I-70 in Kansas once at night with light snow and snow on the road. For some reason I got an optical illusion that there were tall trees alonside the road leaning over and blocking the sky. Of course, the surrounding terrain was flat as a pancake with no trees or anything else.

More like this?

Yeah, that's pretty close. Tried the high beams for a couple seconds and it was almost a white-out.

That's ludicrous speed!

Eating pineapple pizza topped with whipped cream while watching Bugs Bunny pilot the Starship Enterprise through a snowstorm with the Flintstones as his bridge crew.

Things like this happen when I try to multitask.

But this begs the question; why not the Jetsons as the bridge crew?

That would make too much sense.

I first watched this movie on VHS at a friend’s house. This scene put me on the floor in convulsions of laughter.

^^ This. It needs more white dots to look like driving in snow.
I think of this:

When I've driven at night in a snowstorm, it has looked more like this:

That's my high beam view for sure.

First time I drove in a snowstorm at night, I immediately remarked, "This is just like taking the Falcon into hyperspace!"

Driving in a snow storm usually means I'm on my way up and it's going to be gooood.
