When it snows down here, I dont get out on the roads.
Nobody down here can drive in it.

Snowing in fort mill. Already have about an inch and it's only been coming down about 30min.

We have about 1-2 inches with that much on the roads already. It was coming down pretty bad for awhile. I drove around for just over an hour and came across 3 parties that needed or thought they needed assistance.

Party 1 - on asphalt, slight uphill, weren't really stuck and in very broken English said "you push me!" 2 cars actually with husband up front - spooky fellow so I had to leave

Party 2 - Jeep Cherokee - flat pavement - tow truck was already there

Party 3 - bald tires on an old Crown Vic sedan - slight uphill - I spotted her in reverse into a McD's parking lot where her Dad was supposed to pick her up.

We are having thunder snow showers. Ali got some good video. I'll post it later.

Rescued about 6 cars today. Tried to yank a Jeep Cherokee but there was not a single spot to hook to in the rear. Poor lady had to skate down an ice hill.

snow

When out wheeling for a little bit around 6 when there was about 2-3 inches on the ground. Didnt really see anyone stuck. Snow started to pick up and visiability was getting bad so i called it a night. 5-6 inches this morning. Front door locks froze ( i guess water got on them yesterday) so i ended up crawling through the back window to start her up. Coming from mauldin to greenville, there were a few cars in ditchs ( a real nice bmw and 350z) and some downed trees. Other than that, smooth sailing to work this morning.

I took these after about an hour of snowfall. It snowed just about all day but it didn't stick on the roads.

I drove up from Charleston through Hickory, Blowing Rock and into Boone NC on Sunday for work in the middle of the afternoon snow storm. Rig never faltered even in 2WD 99% of the time......over 9 inches total and wind chill down near 3*F on Monday morning and never got out of 20s all week until after I left Wednesday to return south.

Was very nice.......
