Virginia Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 We have about a foot of snow, gusty winds, and we're getting freezing rain. It's supposed to change back to snow at some point, with more accumulation likely. Pretty much the entire commonwealth of Virginia is closed today. Even my husband is home (that NEVER happens!). Getting ready to sled down our street with our youngest Have a good day and stay safe/warm everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 That's quite a picture, ebk! Reminds me of when I was young and living in the "snow belt" region of upstate NY. Be safe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul carruthers Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Cold and windy, the kind of day I feel is right to be out and about; going for a long walk in the breeze. 39 degrees... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebk Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Do you have wine on hand? Bless your heart I'm going with beer today. Took us about 2.5 hours to clear a path, sweep off the cars and get some snow off the roof so it doesn't dam up. Well...my husband actually did the last part. At the moment I'm watching hockey and enjoying a Dogfish Head Burton Baton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebk Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) Pinot noir here! Nice to see you again, E! xo Hey there girlfriend! Nice to be back. I bought a mixed six pack of stouts and figured today was as good a day as any to drink them. Unfortunately, they were still in the basement, so while they are chilling, I'm drinking the DFH. Such sacrifices I make... We got 17 inches out front. Quite the shoveling experience... I hope your son gets home safe and soon!! xo Edited February 13, 2014 by ebk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just imagine those folks in Georgia driving in these conditions. They are not used to it so mass panic is imminent. Road rage galore I am sure.

OzzyIsDio Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yeah we got pounded, they didn't do too good of a job plowing either, despite all the digging out I did yesterday to be able to make it to work, I'm stuck in my lot because my street that gives me access to the main road wasn't plowed.

Walter Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Beautiful morning in Central Florida - mid-70's and not a cloud in the sky! Supposed to be in the low 80's this week with 0% chance of rain - great for Speedweeks in Daytona Beach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bong-Man Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Another 5-6 inches tonite in Motown. Had to have my crew work some overtime just to move the snow out of the way....we have nowhere to put it. We're supposed to hit 32 for the first time in 5 weeks, and melting snow brings the floods and water main breaks. You should see our roads....pothole city. Actually driving on steel rod in some places. Had my tailgate slammed down by one yesterday. A Focus/Malibu/Accord driver would have lost a tire, a strut, and some teeth.
