We got a foot of snow but shoveling it was pretty easy.

It weighed down my tree branches on a couple of trees in the front yard. I hope they rebound okay after the snow melts off them.

My neighbor next door put down a tarp before it snowed because he has a front sidewalk and a driveway to clear. I wondered why his S/W was so clean.

The local school here wasn't closed or even delayed. I was watering my plants this morning and saw the school bus go by at its usual time.

sSome schools were closed in the north east counties of Middle Tennessee, but I suspect it was due more to ice than anything.

Tennesee Is technically three sections:

East Tennessee takes in the Appalachians. Those folks can navigate thru anything nature throws at them.

Middle Tennessee, where I live, are not as driving wimpy as they used to be because there are a lot of Yankee transplants, like me, who do know how to drive in snow & ice. BUT there are still a lot of dummies with 4- wheel drives who think they are invincible and go off the road.

West Tennessee, which is flat/hot/very humid, and lives with the part of the Mississippi River that went backward for three days when the New Madrid Fault Line had a bad belly ache in the late 1800’s. It isn‘t if but when it will erupt again. Not enough money for me to live in that direction. I think I would rather drive on ice than have the earth open up underneath my feet.
