    I'd like to go drive in the snow somewhere :( My area has been traffic city since noon.

    Atlanta is pathetic. Kids possibly having to stay overnight at school due to poor planning.

    Looks like fun... My dad sent me a picture of my first TITS, and now I'm sad that I'm on the opposite side of the globe, and my baby is just sitting covered in snow :(

    It's a damn nightmare for sure. People abandoning cars everywhere (whether it be on the side of road or right in the middle of the highway), and many just gave up after spending hours in traffic and just walked the rest of the way home. Kids were in school overnight. Officials are tools, "well we are doing everything we can" or along those lines. Should have kept up with a prevention plan instead blowing off nature and just seeing what happens when the entire city goes home all at once, no salted roads, nothing.

    Only time I left the apartment today was to run down to the kroger less than a block away and get some essential items. Parking lot full of cars that just sat overnight.

    I had a buddy stuck in traffic for over 21 hours. Slept in his car last night on 92.

    My town was only supposed to get a dusting but we got 3-4 inches, traffic sucked. Yesterday there were wrecks, people stuck and jack knifed semis everywhere. This morning trying to get home I ran my truck in the ditch on 575.

    Yea, I went through some creeks today and I'm pretty sure I had a layer of ice build up on my brakes...I couldn't stop when I came out of them.
