Just have to make it until Saturday & Sunday...forecast is a high of 65.

John, your just north of Atlanta arent ya? Just watchin the weather channel on TV sayin you guys got about 1 1/2" on the ground and could get 3"-5" before its done.

Thanksgiving day in 1969 I was stationed in the Army in Lockport, NY. (between Niagra Falls and Buffalo) It was my turn to be switchboard operator and duty driver. We got 32" of snow in 24 hrs. I got a call to go pick up some guys from the airport near Buffalo...so I put the chains on the van and went out to get the guys......it was an exciting ride to say the least but I got it done. The next day I had to drive a duce and a half with a custom made 12' blade on it to plow the roads around all the officers quarters. I ended up doing a shift from 6:00am Thanksgiving day untill 10:30pm the following night.

Never knew of an Army base in Lockport...I grew up in that region.

Ha! You don't even have any snow there, come on out here if you want to see snow. I went to the bank, drugstore, supermarket, meat market and Costco today. The parking lots are getting real small with all the snow piles. Costco had 15' piles along the end of their lot.

Your car must have been sitting in the sun Ric 'cause it was colder than that this morning. The sun did make it look a lot better out there than it was.

[QUOTE=flash;50886...This one caught everyone off guard ,did I mention I HATE SNOW AND ITS 17 DEGREES OUT THERE .[/QUOTE]

What? It was all over the news last night that you guys were going to get nailed.

I agree Hank. I like driving past the parking lots that have the front loaders clearing snow. Then they lift them up onto a pile that is huge !

I can't wait until later this week, hopefully our temps will get out of the negatives and into double digits......above zero. lol

Went out to start my van in -21 degree temps at 6:30am this morning. She was not happy and turned over a little slow. Got home at 5:50pm and the temperature was 6 degrees.....heat wave.....

Bill, I was right off of Upper Mountain Road near Sanborn. In the middle of a corn field under ground.....Nike / Herc missle site.

I know exactly where that is. Just outside of the Indian Reservation between Lewiston and Cambria.
Lockport is actually due east. My paternal grand parents lived there for years and are both buried in Lockport.
My sister lives right around the corner in Bergholtz. One of my brothers lives in the Town of Lockport as does his construction company.
Spent many Sundays at the Niagara Dragstrip...behind the old Niagara Falls AFB/Bell helicopter complex.
T-giving '69...I was a senior in HS. ;)
Cool!!

It was at Speedway at GM rd and Mildford rd at about 7:30
