What did you guys think about that winter ice storm up here in columbus... lol I lost power for 2 days. It took 35 min for me to get into my car because of a 1 inch layer of ice.

Yeah it was pretty nasty dowen here in Cincy. We got more snow thanice, but it still got nasty. My roommate's parentslive in Reynoldsburg and I know they didn't have power for a long time either.

Hey Gang
Verona got hit with 4" snow then 3" ice and another 2" snow on top on the ice.

I live out in the RURAL part of the county and my load wasn't scraped till Sunday.

My '04 R/T drug on the ice between the tracks made other vehicles. It was the only non-4wd that made it out.

It sucked, we had level 2 snow emergencies in Licking, Franklin and all the other surrounding counties. It made driving a bitch and a half. The sad thing is I still had to go to work

My car didn't leave the garage... well I couldn't even get it out if I wanted to since there was a good 2 foot snow drift infront of the garage door then over a foot the whole length of the driveway, then 3 feet or so at the curb from the snow plows. Yeah I didn't even try... but i still got to work that day

and now I have an extra day of vaca for it.

Lucky... Even if I had the car in my garage I wouldnt have been able to open it because there it was frozen shut. It was funny cause when I went to open it, it would just hum loudly. lol. It sucked..

i was in iowa during the snow storm, but i don't think our power went out while i was away. i did have to shovel all that shit when i got home though. and it didn't look like any of the neighborhood streets had been salted or plowed including my court.

Shit I hope to god not.... It sucked not having power or phones for a couple of days. Its good for you guys with your plow company lol, but bad for the rest of us lol. O well if it aint Ice then Im ok with that I guess. We are also dealing with a lot of flooding down here what about all you guys down in Cincy?

Yeah... we've got major flooding down here. With the snow melting and it raining for a week strait, the Great Miami River down here has flooded so many homes it's crazy and it seems like it all happened within a few hours. The Ohio river is supposed to crest and go above flood stage this weekend or early next week. I think today is the first day in two weeks that the roads are actually dry... but we've got potholes everywhere that can swallow cars.
