Winter Watch! Warning: Ice Forms on Bridges First!
The night before last I kept having my t.v. show* interrupted with "Winter Watch" and "Snow Advisory" warnings scrolling over the screen. Oooooooh. Southerners are so funny when it comes to snow flakes or the mere thought of ice on the roads. When I used to live in Baton Rouge, there would be these signs on every bridge that warned of ice forming on bridges first. I don't think it got below 50 humid degrees in my four years there. Anyway, I woke up yesterday to the after effects of the huge snow storm that happened in the night. I don't know how I got to work alive!
Can you believe they closed all of the schools for this!? It was all melted by 9a.m. and then it was a sunny 50 degree day. Not too reminiscent of my Colorado snow days.
*Okay, I admit it, it was American Idol. |
