Weather Rules

My day off turned out to be very stormy. Since we were expecting this storm from last night, I had given up my usual grocery shopping routine. Schools were closed. Even Joe's work decided on a quit at noon. Super windy with blowing snow. It's an arctic expedition out there. When Joe came home from work, his Subaru stayed on the street. We only walked down our driveway to get to the Subaru to get some gas for the snow blower and to go to a nearby grocery store.
Yeah, even the Subaru would have gotten stuck in the snow drift.
As we drove back from the grocery store, our wonderful nextdoor neighbor was plowing with his personal backhoe (his regular snow removal equipment) and came to plow our driveway next. It was definitely a good thing because when Joe went out to use his snowblower, it decided to lock up and go on strike. As I type, Joe is in the garage trying to fix it.
We hear there is another storm coming right behind this one. We'll see what kind of weather rules for tomorrow.
