if I didn't have to work I would... the way the wind is blowing this snow horizontally you should be getting it any min now... we already have a frosting on the ground now... and its coming down hard...

by the end of the day we could do some snow wheeling out in the farmers fields around here....

I was going to unload my camper this morning, but the wind is howling. Guess I'd better wait. No snow yet, but it looks ominous outside.

Its snowing a bit here but the wind is blowing too hard for it to make it to the ground. Wind is about 15 gusting to 30..... They are calling for 60mph gusts in Lehi later today

Don't say that, I was on my way to little moab, got about a mile from your house and turned back it was snowin and blowin so hard. Guess no doors and wipers made it a little worse.

It was a joke workin in Lehi today... 3 slide offs and 2 accidents involving 8 cars today at the same time/same location on SR 92.

(Hey let's all get so close together with our vehicles that it looks like a train! Then when we have to hit our brakes we all run into each other!!!)
Ya SR92 was hell today me and the wife started heading east on sr92 from cabelas and it wasnt to bad the wind was blowing like mad but you could still see by the time we made it 1/2 mile up the road it was so bad you could hardly see the front of the jeep. I didnt want to stop and have someone run in to us and i was in no way going to try and turn around in the road and head back towards cabelas:eek:. So we had no choice but to carry on till we could turn off, i was driving probably around 5-10mph at the fastest and the wind was blowing so hard and the roads were so icy that it took our jeep and it blew me right off the road i had no control over where i was going and in no way could i stop it from doing so :eek: We found a road about a mile or 2 up the road with a gas station just off to the right where we pulled off and waited for about 30 min. I had no clue where the back roads went and i didnt want to wait it out till the wind stopped and i was getting worried if they would shut the road down or not so we got back on the road and made the very very slow trip back towards the freeway. I know one thing i will never try driving that road again in the snow while the wind is blowing that hard!
