Sunday evening Alabama got hit with a major snow storm. When I woke up Monday AM there was 6 inches on the ground and some places got as much as 12 inches. The entire County shut down and all roads were closed.
The dogs actually seemed to enjoy the snow.
Here is a short video to watch.
By noon it was 32 degrees and the snow on the road was getting slushy but it would freeze tonight and then would be ice. I needed to pick up some prescriptions so I headed out around 2 pm. On the way the Durango did a 90 degree fishtail but due to my experience with driving up north, I easily made the appropriate correction and got her going straight again. The only snow plow I saw on a major 4-lane highway was some guy in a farm tractor with a bucket on the front trying to clear the road. These folks just aren't prepared for this kind of weather.
The drive-up window at the pharmacy was the only thing open in town, so I got my Meds and went back home.
I sure hope things are cleared up by Wednesday.
