Snow Update !

[SnoopLoggyDog]

Just drove from Greentown, to Kokomo and back. Heavy accumulation and speeds reduced to 20MPH. Visibility was 1/4 mile when we left. Dropped to 100-200 yards on the return trip due to blowing snow. The streets in Kokomo were at least 12" deep in fresh snow. Time to hunker down for the night.

I don't know what all this sturm und drang is all about. I'm just sitting here in my home in Terre Haute all snuggly and warm and eating a bowl of apricot ice cream.

The fact that there's about 10" of snow in the street, and more coming down, doesn't affect me in the least.

At least a foot not counting drifts. But that's between yesterday and today. Snow is showing no signs of stopping as of 3:10 p.m.

Marshall County just declared a state of emergency. Nobody is allowed on the roads until the order is lifted.

"Due to the deteriorating conditions caused by the severe winter storm, the Marshall County Board of Commissioners has issued an Emergency Declaration regarding travel upon roadways in the un-incorporated areas of the county.

Okay. Now it's starting to affect me. Snow load + winds kicking up = dead limb came down in the back yard and dropped the phone line. I'm still able to post this, so it's all good. Just something more to watch out for.

Lake County Commissioners and Sheriff declared the unincorporated parts of the county (where I live) closed to all traffic except emergency vehicles.

Porter County announced they are closing at 6pm this evening. They are even pulling their snowplows off the roads.

Starke county is at the warning level effective 5 p.m. and plows will be pulled shortly after that. still snowing.....getting colder and windier.

We have received over a foot of new snow. Blowing and drifting is making travel difficult. Many cars are disabled on roads. Lots of scanner traffic regarding stranded motorists. Time to run out for milk, eggs and bread. Perhaps I'll order a pizza.

 

[Rhoadmar]

I've got 12" on the ground and is falling at about 1" an hour.
