Funny story... My F150 truck I bought from the dealership here in Indiana is originally from Canada. It has a block heater on a gas engine... The passengers rear view mirror that should say "things are closer then they appear" is written in French.Last year when it got sub- zero the dash display reverted to metric.... today at -2f it happened again.. "-17" I was doing 88kmh in a 55... and I was getting 30 litres to kilometer!Guess "Buhla the Bronze Beauty" thought she was finally back home.
I got a pool going says we don't get one flake. People here are complete morons (but we already had recent proof of that). They are stocking up like they are about to be snowed in! If we get any accumulation at all it will be gone in a few hours. Now if I could just figure out some way to swindle these rubes before the opportunity is gone!

This snow is very wet and crunchy.

Might as well bag up some of that sand while you're at it. Just tell them they won't be able to find any once the snow covers it.

Put a blade on your tractor and plow thier drives real quick. It works in Ohio even when the snow is only 1 or so inches so should work down there.
Great ideas guys! Thanks! I've got some free sandbags leftover from the last hurricane!
