Well we got the biggest snow in 5 years and we got it on March 1st.  Imagine that.  One good thing is we are in a moderate drought so hopefully the snow will help with that.  It’s not helping much with trying to get to work, that’s for sure.  In face, there was a back-up of about 30 miles in one direction and 20 miles in another on Interstate 85 at the North Carolina/South Carolina border that made national news.

People were stuck for hours on Interstate 85 so long that some of them even ran out of gas.  What happened is a tractor-trailer jackknifed and blocked the entire north bound lane.  Luckily no one was injured but they were stuck.  It looked more like a parking lot than a highway.  The red cross even had to put some people up in shelters before returning them to their cars along with a can of gas so they could leave the area.  I just hope this is the last of the white stuff we will see until next winter.  I’m sure I’m not the only one that hopes that too.
