I had no idea that WV was a bedroom community of Rome-on-the-Potomac.
I recall a storm in that area between Tahoe and Truckee, that left businesses with no choice but to cut a hole out from the second floor. It was in the early 70’s. Fifty years of global warming and we are right back to the same weather cycle.
Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Most Americans couldn’t go 8 minutes without fast food let alone 48 hours. Gawd, the world would stop without Cinnebon and a 64 ounce Diet Coke for breakfast
helicopter or drones could drop supplies and salt.
Lol. I was looking over my supplies a couple of months ago and suddenly remembered that my old solar/battery/crank 5 band radio had died a couple of years ago. Got a new one just a month ago. ROTFL.
—”the only way they’re getting out is by tow truck and taken to the nearest charging station.”
They can be push/tow charged, thanks to regenerative braking.
“I had no idea that WV was a bedroom community of Rome-on-the-Potomac.”
Everyone is moving out from DC and Va to Eastern W.va esecially with the metro rail that goes straight into DC
We drove through there 3 years ago (W.va) One huge farm was open now it has 400-500-600 homes.
The growth is insane. People are moving from diversity to less diversity. Where my sister lived kin VA it is now 70-75% immigrants.
I walked into her local Target and I was the only white man.
” I remember a few years ago when northerners shamed us southerners for being stranded overnight due to ice on the road. Y’all can’t drive in the snow??? Tsk, tsk.”
Virginians ARE Southerners.
Yeah, they probably used all the money in the budget to “clear the roads” to “clear” all the Confederate monuments from the state. Hope they all freeze their asses to death.
It’s a little late to wait for that libtard clown of a moron to act like a real governor 🤪
“Florida!
Low 55, Sunny and 70 right now.”
Must be nice. In south Alabama it’s a freezing, miserable 53 degrees. Well, it’s not really miserable. You could get a suntan if you were so inclined, but still, 53 degrees. BRRRR!
Exactly 3' in one night.
They got almost 5' in the mountains.
Then there was '96.
Then nothing too bad until 2009 or 2010.
2' of wet, heavy fluffiness in one night.
Trees down across roads and power lines.
We didn't have power for 5 days, but I know some areas had no power for 2-4 weeks.
I wonder how many understand the rat party purposely dilutes American citizenship and harms our republic so as to keep the party in power.
I was in Chicago for the ‘67 deep freeze, in Buffalo in ‘76 and ‘86, and I forget when-all else. Blizzards sort of meld together in Buffalo. They’re kind of fun if you have a warm, dry place to stay and good outer wraps. Stuck on the road, however, is a bad place to be. Especially with the idiots in charge of the guvermint that presently rule.
I remember in rural Pennsylvania, all the plow operators started plowing from their homes the moment the snow started, and kept at it until it ended, and that way, with the help of a truck spilling salt or sawdust or both on the roads, traffic was totally unimpeded. That’s the sensible, proactive way to handle it. So of course they don’t do it now in Virginia, just wait to react until the problem is too big to ignore, then mis-manage it.
You know what? Look at it this way. People knew it was going to snow. Then why in the world were they out there in the first place???????? STAY HOME!
IF your car cannot move or get OUT-—HOW do you expect Door Dash to GET IN??????”
Sounds like Door Dash needs drones.
Snow mobiles.
Never heard of that before. How long does that take before the EV can drive off on its own? As a side note, how many tow truck companies have the ability to charge on site? Maybe I misunderstood your comment.......
Hot water too?
"Travelers without food and water were furious at the current Democratic governor for not employing the National Guard"
Who's gonna protect the election stealers if they call out the Guard?
You mean the ones who thought, "This could NEVER happen to me." after hearing the PSAs for winter travel?
