Snow Storm

The forecast is calling for a "snow storm" here tonight and throughout most of tomorrow. Storm here meaning 4-8 inches. I'm sure that is probably insignificant in some parts of the country. But even a dusting here causes widespread panic. Folks are probably already crowding into the grocery stores for milk and bread. After the first couple of snowflakes fall, people won't remember how to drive. Its insane, but its always like that on the rare occasions when we have a bit of snow.
I actually like a little snow every once in a while. I probably won't love it so much when I have to go back to work on Wednesday. The roads will still be ugly, most likely, due to the fact that snow is so rare that this county doesn't have enough equipment or personnel to clear anything except for the most major roads. But until then I am just going to sit back and see what happens. Honestly, we usually get bypassed by the snow accumulation most of the time. It won't surprise me at all if we wake up tomorrow morning to nothing but a cold damp day. Oh well, we shall see. If by chance we do get a decent snowfall, we will be out there building snowmen all day long. And there will be pictures, so.....stay tuned.
