Well, it finally happened. We got about 14" of snow on Tuesday and Wednesday and they closed schools for 3 days because the city didn't send out plows until after the snow stopped.

Well, it finally happened. We got about 14" of snow on Tuesday and Wednesday

they closed schools for 3 days because the city didn't send out plows until

er the snow stopped.

I live on the northern edge of "the South." They often send the salt
trucks out too early, to salt before the snow is even falling (which does
not work) then later complain that they need more money to buy salt.

They do usually get the plows out while it is snowing, though, but there
has been a time or two where it was snowing so hard that I think they give
up and wait until it is over.

Glad you finally got some snow.

That's quite alright. You can keep your heat right where it is, but thanks anyway.

I grew up in central Florida. One day there was "snow" consisting of
big flakes that did not even touch the ground. School let out to
observe this historic event:-}}
