Ahhh, right. You are from the Great White North.
Dude, this is BLIZZARD conditions. In February no less. AND 2 snows in one year. This is the event of the decade.

Working...from home 
. I would've driven in if I didn't have the ability to work from home. The roads weren't bad at all, even at 8:30 this morning. They've been spotless since late morning. I tried to watch the news at lunch...nothing but snow

I had to laugh this morning when one of my neighbors (knowing that I am from up North) knocked on my door and asked me if I had any tips for driving in such horrible conditions. BTW, she drives an AWD Highlander...
I couldn't help but think about all the times I used to have to drive my rear wheel drive 5.0 mustang(which was pushing over 375hp) in 10+ inches of snow

That's what people at work are saying, this is the WORSE case scenario
Actually, we had 13 people in my department call out, they couldn't get out of their house??? What!?!? They should be fired for an excuse like that.

It's the Cars & Coffee that we have to worry about. If it rains, those guys won't bring their exotics out.

We'll have to see what happens, but I'd hate to see this fall apart from a little (or even a lot) of rain. For Charlotte, this is practically a "mega" meet.

Oh it'll be raining for sure. I've known mother nature for a long time. She's a bitch like that.

Rain or shine, I'll be there. I can't guarantee how clean my car will be though haha. I'm going to wash and wax it Friday when I get out of school and put it in the garage for the night until I leave in the morning. I'm not looking forward to driving 3 hours with all of the salt and shit on the road from the snow we had today.
