Pretty much. Work was canceled, I napped... Probably be canceled tomorrow. Nap to be determined...


Wound up with about 5" covering about an 1/8" of ice. Not a lot, but enough. I think they got 6" back in 1989 after Hugo.


Funny what shuts this town down. Everyone is out and about during a tropical storm or hurricane. But snow? Not a soul out on the roads.

Thing is you southern states don't have the equipment like we do up nort' here to clear it... understandable snow brings everything to a halt.

UUGH.... do everything you can to avoid that, bro.

I hear you. In Albuquerque they used ash the one or two times it was needed. In SoCal, well, nothing. I cringed when the news said they were bringing in salt and filling trucks with brine. Luckily they didn't use the brine as the temps are cold enough to freeze it.

Unusual for down there, but pretty.

I agree...avoid salt! It eats through conceret like acid.

Up in WVa they used coal ciders.

In Northern California and Oregon, volcanic ciders and sand are used - no salt!
