Stormy Update

Around 2 am the snow quit blowing sideways and started to fall. We have lots of drifts and travel is still likely impossible. We have everything we need and the power is on. We are safe and cozy.

The next wave is expected to hit this afternoon when the winds will pick back up.

It's hard to tell because of the drifting but I think we received about 12 inches of snow.

Many people were caught out and an accident on a local highway caused the passengers of about 200 cars to be stranded overnight. They rescued many of them this morning using buses to get the people out as they were unable to clear the road to move the cars.

@whatsup,
I like snow, coz I have never seen it! But now I feel this is better lol :D

Cheers~

lol... it's pretty once in a while

Glad you are safe and warm. I hope those who were caught traveling in it had some kind of emergency kit that included blankets and something to eat/drink. Hope you have stocked up on necessities. I noticed here many wait till the last minute to grab items and the stores quickly have empty shelves for latecomers.

They have been begging everyone to stay home for days and to take safety kit if you do have to travel.

Wowzers!! (0_0)
