Wow that's crazy Daniel! Be safe!!!The wind is crazy here! One of the barn "man doors" keeps coming open, as the wind is banging the door back & forth till the latch lets loose, so I screwed the door shut, and also had to screw some loose tin on my shop. Things you'd not think would get blown around are. I also had to wire some sliding barn doors to the end barn gates, as they were swinging straight out. Hang onto your hats!!!

Got home from work this afternoon, and there was a package on my doorstep. It was my tire chains for the 8-16 tires on big Red that I had bought on ebay. I got them on my tires, (I already had the snowblade on it) and out the garage door I went! Mostly had ice on the driveway, but there was also some snow. I cleared off my neighbor's driveway too. Yea man! Seat time!

I moved down there( In between Greensboro and High point) in January 97. We had snow the next day. it wasn't a lot but I spent my day pulling cars out of ditches. That hole winter we had ice storm after ice storm. And here I moved there to get away from all of that lol.Jeff, thanks for the pictures of the snow. Here in NC, we rarely have frozen ground, and hardly ever when the snow falls. In fact, I doubt we get snow but once every couple of years, so we are probably due for at least one good one this year.

I'm not certain, but around 1993, the winter was so mild we had people wanting to sunbathe in February, and instead of waiting to open our pools in April, which was customary, we opened them in early March.I moved down there( In between Greensboro and High point) in January 97.

After tomorrow I have 4 days off too dig the rest out. I80 is closed both directions 20 miles east of here. I35 is down up north and South of DesMoines. I would not say this was unusual but we have been spoiled the last couple years.
