I will. I've always wanted to ride on the highways and if it hits us like it's supposed to (they're saying my area just SW of the city is in the 27" range) I'll be all over the roads. Probably be busier helping people out than anything.

You just might be cruising the highways on the snowmobile.

Well, it's snowing here and 17* F, supposed to get 3 or 4" and be below zero F tomorrow. We're pretty lucky in the low country here (about 5460' where I live)...we've had about 12.5" of snow so far this winter. In the high country, near Vail, Aspen, Snowmass and Steamboat Springs, they've had 12' or 14' or so...best skiing in years.
Har3ry, Coloradan, where snow is welcome |

Once the snow emergency is declared, and the only vehicles you see on the streets have a plow on the front, the streets are fair game. Well, maybe not legally in the technical sense, but the authorities have many other real priorities at that point and would never bother with it. And unless they're riding one too, there is about zero chance of them ever catching you. |

you don't know where you are Heather?
had a little film of ice on the side window when I left work at 5:30. but I sprayed down the windshield when I got to work so that helped. we will see in the morning with 30+ mph winds and 6+" of snow on the ground. |

This is going to be fun. Plenty of food, booze and vids. Told my boss I am working from home until the thaw and he told me he is doing the same.
And it's lunar New year so 80% of my customers are closed. PUI here I come. |

Went out in shorts and flip flops this morning to pick up the morning paper off the driveway.
Thinking about installing new shocks on the vette this morning and perhaps take it out later for a drive with the top off. |

It just started snowing here. The last report I saw before going to bed last night showed up to 24" possible.
Hey Craig, Hows real estate in your hood. The wife and I are done with freezing our asses off. |

Shoveled a couple of inches of snow this morning. Not even worth firing up the snowblower.
Barb told me to get a couple of cases of beer on my way home from work. Gotta stock up for disasters, ya know. |
