Darryl, are you serious? People also die in bed.
Watchful – your comment shows you are under the common misperception that global warming causes higher temperatures. In fact, the melting of the polar ice caps cause lower temps.
I don’t buy the whole global warming thing, but at least know what it is that you are not believing. LOL
Gotta love that Global Warming.
There will be accidents and death because people will still try to go shopping and such. They should make it illegal for workplaces to be open when this type of weather is going on.
Sounds like the winters when I was a kid.
Thanks William, for keeping us informed on weather conditions and all the other news in the north end.
hey everybody, if we get the freezing rain, please slow down a little while driving on highways, now would be a good time to check your tires for air and tread depth, you don’t want slick tires on slick roads, that leads to rear end collisions and visiting the ditch…..please be careful..
