Oh, the Weather outside is Frightful… Yeah White!

What is it about impending foul weather that makes people crazy?

yesterday, a Storm was predicted to drop 8-10in. of the white stuff on us between 12pm-2am, with the heaviest accumulations between 4-7pm. since everyone is out there trying to do the same thing, they get jammed up and cause Ridiculous delays on the roadways. They rush out into streets when they get released from work at midday or just leave on their own so that they wont get caught out in the storm and the snow. They run around trying to prepare for the worst and clog up the city’s roads in an attempt to be the first home or the first to the store to obtain the foodstuffs that would last them for a month, just like everyone else is doing! the wife said that we got about 9-10in. in Arlington but this i cant verify since i have been unplugged and haven’t watched tv since thursday night, i don’t have the actual Snow Fall totals. it was definitely snowy and slick outside but not nearly as bad as people were predicting/worried about... the Real problem is that with everyone out on the roads, the plows cant get through to do their job which causes disabled cars, which causes longer delays and leads to people stuck on the roadways where the plows cant do their job… it’s a vicious cycle!

~life is Short, so Get out of the PlowGuys Way~

postscript: its still snowing today as we sit at the airport, some of the roads have been cleared and crews are still out plowing. im very glad our states infrastructure is so well-managed! and with all sincerity ~ Nice Work there, jj!
