Blizzard 2008, but not quite

[cabenson]

We didn't get official Blizzard title because we didn't have the sustained winds for a certain time frame, but we did see a new snowfall record: 20.4" in the city, about 14-15" at our house.

Pictures? Why sure... 2008 Record snowfall

I ate today which made the wife very happy. I also got a little more sleep last night. I hate kleenex and late night TV and time change. I love Sprite and skin sensitive tape. And my better half and the boys who have all done a great job of playing nurse. And Vicoden.

They already canceled school for tomorrow so Mrs. CB can stay home with us.

Yay for Ms. CB playing teh role of Snow Warrior.

OMFG that's a lot of snow... at one time. I can't imagine the city that struggles to clear streets of 2" accumulations having a prayer of handling what ya'll got.

Good luck.

FWIW: I miss snow days.

They haven't done too badly with cleaning the streets...the "plan" says 48 hours after the storm ends before they start residential streets...they actually started on them Saturday night and our street was plowed last night.

It would have helped if Sheriff Karnes had declared a level 3 Snow Alert Fri night or Sat afternoon to clear the highways without having to weave through the 2000 accidents. Someone in the Columbus comm said he won't do that unless there is a fatal accident caused by the weather.
