We finally have snow! Lots of it!
The snow warnings, calling from four to eight inches, started Tuesday afternoon and by this morning it looks like we received every single inch of it.
The highway I drive to and from work on is visible from my office window so I started paying attention to the traffic flow early yesterday afternoon. It was a parking lot until about 7PM when I decided to head home. The 70 MPH posted speed was reduced to a steady 30MPH so I made it home faster than I thought I would. Surprisingly there were no traffic accidents or cars in the ditch even though the road was heavily snow covered.
When the winter weather turns nasty in Michigan many intelligent people become extremely stupid and start thinking they are invincible. I've lived in Michigan my entire life and I drive a Jeep -- but I'm a big sissy when the snow falls. I love being able to turn my four-wheel drive on because I get much better traction, but I still take my time. I'm NOT one of "those" crazy four-by-four people.
