All you have to do is drive like you’re driving on the muddy red clay roads around here those of us of a certain age remember.
Turn into the slide, don’t hit the brakes, and keep the accelerator pedal low & smooth.
Southern boy who can drive in snow, ice, and mud. lol
Atmore Christian is also closed on Tuesday. Elementary students planning to dress up for the 100th day of school should dress up on Wednesday.
Yeah……
They sho doesn’t.
I bet no one remembers the Ice and Sleet Storm that shut down cities across the deep South on January 28-29, 2014. It was very dangerous to be on the roads. The people in the deep South doesn’t know how to drive in it. So happy the Escambia and Santa Rosa Schools cancelled classes tomorrow.
Good! I was keeping my girls home anyway in the event we did have ice. It’s always better to side with caution.
