 Looks like we may get 1-3 inches of snow, starting around noon tomorrow. The grocery stores are in the process of being ransacked. I would be willing to bet that by morning, very few have any bread or eggs left. But sadly, it won't be the first snow that I have seen this year. I saw a little on the ground around Raleigh/Durham in North Carolina on Sunday morning.

I have to laugh at the milk and egg Phenomenon that goes on during snow storms. I guess this goes on in places that have changes in season and hotter climates. I especially laugh at the reporters standing out in blizzards hurricanes and even mild weather as if the end of the world is near. Here ya go!....... It goes to show how trustworthy the media is.

With only one plow truck for the county I bet they closed schools already. Some area schools have already announced closings. The county in which I live has canceled all after school activities. I won't be surprised if that changes in the morning. I am fairly sure that the county does not have any plows. They might have one or two trucks to sand and salt the roads. I think all the usually do is sand/salt major intersections and bridges. The State may have a few plows for the Interstate highways....but definitely not many. Secondary roads simply don't get plowed. You just stay home and wait for it to melt. My wife works at a grocery store.... It will be a total madhouse where she works. Throngs of people, armed with their gubamint issued EBT cards.....  Never mind.........that's a whole different topic. |

Trying to convince me of your areas mental superiority by using a dog sled race as an example?    I did my best not to be a "woosey" today It started snowing while I was at the Post Office this morning. When I was done, I went ahead and went to a U pull it for an hour or so. Sadly, the place I wanted to stop at for lunch had closed early.
