(These are mine, all mine.)
Now, I know many of you are all thinking, "Big deal. We get that much snow in a hour around here and everything's just fine." Well you are fully justified in that thinking. We've both dealt with much worse conditions; however, most of the residents of the Tri-Cities have never seen it snow more than a skiff. The storm is unheard for this area and snow usually doesn't show up until January.
Due to the skiff of snow in January, we have also had the issue of few snow plows and non-existent salt (or other mixtures) on the roads. They just aren't prepared or equipped for storms and 20° temperatures here. Everyone kept telling us the snow only lasted for a few days....I'd like to have a word or two with everyone who informed us of that fact as it's been a week since the storm and the views from our windows haven't changed much, except that the snow kept coming. Thankfully the last couple days have been warmer so the the roads are beginning to get slushy and dry in some areas. I'll be very happy when the temperatures return to normal so I can thaw out.
(No I didn't overlook it...More will be coming regarding our above mentioned flight....)
