WINTER.....YUCK


So one of my friends just sent me this and it cracked me up. Now granted, it is freakin freezing here. I am already soooooo over winter. I am counting down the days until Spring! (heck even March) It is 10 degrees and feel like it is below 0. Which is so cold for the south. But the South tends to get a little overwhelmed by a little wintry mix.

Warning! Warning!

A snowflake drifted through the jet stream from Iowa and attempted to
land near Nashville. Avoid the area!!!

TDOT has responded with 6 snow plows that were able to surround the
flake.

They hit it with flame throwers and did melt it before it struck the
ground however.

They are now working with a Shop Vac to remove moisture before it
freezes.

33,000 metric tons of salt have also be applied in the general area as a
precaution.

In other news....

A freak salt storm has been reported in the parking areas and sidewalks
around Dell in Nashville.

Walking and driving is hazardous due to the accumulation of salt which
has made walkways slippery due to its round granular shape.
