Looks like it is going to be snowing all day tomorrow into Thurs and could get a little tricky for the snow challenged folks. So any extra prep on your list?

I did start generator last night.
Fill up the 77 Chief.
Loaded tow strap, chain and tested winch
hat, gloves, extra jacket...check
beer stocked..Check.
Debating on whether to close the plant wed and thur since no one will show up.

Let the fun begin.
 
Checked the oil in the jeep... My place has a wood stove with gas logs. So I can stay some what warm. Will move contents of fridge outside if I lose power, aka beer.
 
simple.. dress kids hand them sled and tell them to go have fun.. DONE
 
Cold beer in the fridge, and plenty of dry firewood.

Also, the truck is gassed up for a little "snow wheeling" on the streets
 
Bought my first snow shovel, ever.
 
I'm staying at work till normal time. I figure all the freaker-outer's will go home early and I can wave at them in the ditch at 5:45.
 
Same as always...go home if/when work shuts down, drive carefully & offer to pull anybody out of the ditches.
Stay in during the day except to clear driveway(s) & tow the neighborhood kids back up the hills.
If work gets cancelled tomorrow, I plan on getting a bunch of 'To-Dos' crossed off!
 
I suppose I should go by some groceries... All I have in the house right now is beer and ramen noodles.
Realistically we have an old country gas station that will stay open and run on a generator, and they sell anything I could need. So I will live.
 
I got beer and fire ball, 4 gallons of race gas for my dirt bike and and filled up the 250 toyota has about 16-17 gallons in it
 
I'm doing nothing.
