So what did you do without CA.com for those days?

I am empathetic to your plight.

however, i would like to point out that a few years ago we had a fukked up ice storm here (several inches of ice immediately followed by a foot of snow and 40 mph winds with subzero temps) and it didn't make the national news. America doesn't care about South Dakota //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I was without power for 8 days. They had to go door-to-door asking people if they needed to go to shelters because it was so cold and there was no power for heat.

It was just as catastrophic as what you got but no one cared //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I bet there were a ton of fender benders. I love how my family down in Arkansas gets school off for like 2 inches of snow and car accidents everywhere lol. When I was in high school we didn't even get out of school for like 10 inches of snow because obviously, most of us know how o drive in it. 2 inches of ice is a whole nother story though....

Nothing new here in IN. That shit happens every year, more that once. I hate the winter, but it is nice to see snow on the ground during Xmas.

ICE. It was near 80 over here today. It get's so hot here it's almost impossible to make ice in a freezer.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Yeah we love winter here. It's the only time of the year it drops from 100 to 80!
