    Default Blizzard February 2011


    Old man winter sure knows how to ruin you're fishin plans. I guess I can reorganize by tackle bag and clean some reels. Hope everyone stays safe and warm while this storm blows through. I know it looks like this storm is gonna affect a bunch of us. We had 20" of snow and 4' snowdrifts outside the house here in NE Oklahoma.

    I thought it was a cold winter in SC. Sure glad I live here and not there.
    Who's ready for SPRING?
    Hope you all stay warm.

    SW Ohio (Dayton area) 70,000+ without power, local TV stations are having guys knocking ice off their broadcast dishes to try to stay on the air, on emergency generaters. Snow Emergency Level 2- considered EXTREMELY hazardous on rds, many slide offs and worse more freezing rain before morning as wind picks up and tree limbs/ power wires load up with 1- 1 1/2 " ice; did mention the temps are supposed to plummet with day break and the winds are supposed to pick up to 25- 30 MPH? Looks like an interesting early morning! Please be SAFE out there, stay home if you can, if you MUST go out, slow down, if you`re passing the person in the slow lane who`s on ice skates, you`re probabily going TOO FAST!

    Anvil, actually, several surrounding states including Kentucky, Michigan and Tennessee all have sent electical utility trucks and crews to the region, the area got socked but understand Indianapolis got hammered harder, and parts of I-70 are just all but impassable; 1 big long ribbon of ice. Caught the news, apparently the Indy County Engineer is allowing Nat`l Guard armor to run parts of the highway 1 pass on naked steel tracks (no rubber road pads) to literally smash up the ice with a couple of snow plows following abreast...THAT`S desperation! Hopefully, it works; can hear the wind here starting to howl...the utility guys deserve more praise than they will get...
