When I attended AIT at Fort Gordon in 91, it snowed. Aside from Fort Jackson, where I went through basic training, it snowed on me everywhere I went in the army. I thought it was me...

roads are terrible here right now, a lot of wrecks today. Much worse than what you have. It hasn't stopped since 6am.

well, it's relative: You are supposed to get snow. We are not prepared for it, EVER. I bet there is not a loaf of bread to be had in town tonight...nor a drop of milk.

We have no snow plows or ways to toss slat on the road...we do get snow it's on top of 3 weeks worth of rain, on top of 2 days of freezing rain...

We aren't supposed to really get snow for another month. But seriously, you all don't have salt or anything? Wow...

well, the box in my cup board with the girl and the umbrella...
didn't make no ice cream this year, so not rock salt...(but I got cats, so I can use kitty litter)

but no, I don't think except for the northern most counties that are in the mountains...no salt, no plows...utter pandemonium when one snowflake appears on the horizon!

I sincerely respect your point that "it`s not supposed to happen here"......that`s why people move down south in the first place. But I also live on an island where on a clear day you can take the train to Wakanai and look across the ocean to Siberia. (Why do I suddenly feel like Sarah Palin??????) You`ll be back on the road in a day, maybe two. In the meantime, enjoy a day off at home. We average 10 meters of snow a year and between Nov and April it`s like living on a glacier. Granted, it`s a glacier full of great seafood, world-class skiing, and hot babes in short skirts......but they don`t even plow the roads if there`s less than an 8 inch snowfall.
