Feb. 1 2011 Ice storm who would have thought it, well I would. All one has to do is live here in Dallas for 40 years and they can figure it out. I got up to go to work and was driving in it at 5:30am and it was not really that bad, I was at the Walmart on I30 in Rockwall, that is where i meet the guy I carpool with.
He didn't show up so I called him and he was already downtown as he got a call to be in early in case of any water pipe busts (he is a plumbing supervisor) and he said that it was pretty bad out there, so I decided that I didn't need to go to work that bad as I don't make enough to cover the deductible in case I am in a accident.
I decided to gas up but the gas was $2.95 a gallon up from $2.82 last night, so I went to Tom Thumb's ($2.81) in Rowlett got gas then went into Tom Thumb and got some bread and Dr.Pepper's and when I got on 66 to go back to Rockwall the road had about 2" of icy slush and it was getting worst.
With the sorry road conditions and cold temperatures, this will put a damper on the Superbowl festivities, hopefully we will get back to the weather that is easier to travel and party in.
