Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Bruce - we have 7 1/2 inches now and it's still snowing. Forecast is for 11 degrees low/25 high tomorrow and 13 low/33 high Sunday. Maybe it'll start to melt Monday or Tuesday - but then you're not driving through the mountains, are ya?

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Bruce: We liked the effect of rocks on the roads, so we threw them down in several more places. Probably we'll throw some more during this storm. Pretty soon, we'll be back to isolation. ;-) B Barbara McD PF--Sept 08; Sjogren's--Apr 09; Reynaud's--seems like forever Beautiful Western NC Counting my blessings: #34 - Hot chocolate Consider what a great forest is set ablaze by a small spark.

Guess if I wanted mountains could go the City routebut I think this time of the year I'll stick to the more southern andless mountainess paths. I've driven through the NC mountains fromChattanooga back to Greensboro during a very very bad ice and snow stormand it wasn't fun.> >> > Hey Beth - are you getting snow?
