Lay or Stick

When there is an accumulation of snow, do you say it is "sticking" or "laying"?

I say "Holy fucking shit, there's snow on the ground!!"


But in all seriousness, I have never ever heard the term "laying," only "sticking."

I did. When I make a poll, the post is posted, then I can go through the process of creating the poll. Is this the way everyone has to do it, or am I doing something wrong?

Who wouldn't want to lay LabRat in the snow?

How many ways would you like to stick it to LabRat in the snow?

But seriously, there's a lag between posting the post and posting the poll. Am I doing something wrong?

Stop, you one trick ponies

Seriously, I don't think I say either. I say, we got 6 inches of snow yesterday. It's snowing, but it's not sticking to the ground? I guess I say stick, if that's what you mean.

Whilst snowing: The snow is sticking
Afterwards: There is snow (laying?) on the ground.

probably wouldn't use laying at all, but definitely sticking while it is snowing.

We say sticking, although it never does...
