Chris Bailey is climaxing.
It really is a wild setup. Southern part of Fayette could be hit very hard while Northside might just get a little.
Yes!!! The poors win!!!!
I'll never understand this. WTF is milk gonna do when the power is out?
Same happened last time I lived back there. As soon as the words "ice" and "snow" were spoken on TV, everybody rushed to buy bread and milk.
It is totally real. Back in 2015 Lexington got 17 inches of snow. I went out to buy some useful things (like canned goods ready to eat and what not) and when I went to Kroger eggs, milk, and bread were totally wiped out.
People buy bread and milk right before any event that might keep them homebound because bread and milk are perishables that quickly go bad and generally are staples of most kids' diets.
Duh.
Duh.
It a blast seeing how excited Weather Reporters get when Weather like this is on its way to the Area.
Forget milk and bread. I stock up on booze, meat and charcoal.
Oddly enough. During the week of the aforementioned 17 inches of snow. I was stuck at home all week because my car was stuck in the snow. I trudged my way down to Rite Aid (maybe 2 blocks) to buy some rum. when I was checking out the cashier said "I think i've sold more booze this week than I have all year"
Drive safe and no, I'm not going to speed up on snowy roads just because you're riding my ***.
I bet that Ice storm sags his Jeans with a designer belt and drives a pimped out gt skyline...he’s a meannnnn dude.
Last year when we got word that everything was going to be shutdown, my wife had to get everything at her office sorted out and had no idea when she would be back. She usually does the shopping but we didn't even know if Kroger would be closed so I went about 2 pm to stock on whatever was possible.
It looked like Soviet Russia. The shelves were bare of a lot of stuff I did not care about.
All the meat was gone -- except beef short ribs, which are my favorite anyway so I bought all they had. I, too, loaded up on about 5 bags of charcoal. Bought about 5 jugs of draino in case you couldn't get a plumber to the house for the foreseeable future (which came in pretty handy). A bunch of carrots, onions, garlic, and potatoes. Rice and cans of beans and adobo peppers. Club soda. Butter and heavy cream. Rolled next door to the liquor store and bought a 30 pack of cans of beer, 2 good fifths of bourbon, 2 handles of el cheapo vodka, and two bottles of everclear in case I had to make DIY hand sanitizer.
My wife and I got home about the same time. Her reaction was "I send you to the store to get supplies to last through a pandemic and you come home with this?" I shrugged and told her this is what she ought to be buying anyway. Miraculously, we ate pretty damn well and are still alive.
2009 was unforgettable. Please not that again.
In 2009 we stored stuff outside. It worked great until the temperature went up.

They’ve moved it since the Louisiana Purchase. I think it runs through Schenectady NY these days
According to an inside source at the news station, when they arrived this morning Meck was in a trancelike state staring at the doppler while slamming his junk in a cabinet door. They said he smelled strongly of peach schnapps and souse.
Tom Ackerman said this morning that the worst ice area will be "between the parkways".......meaning the Bluegrass and Cumberland Pkwys. So basically Richmond/Berea to Campbellsville will see up to .75" inches of ice. Above the Bluegrass Pkwy will be mixed sleet/snow........below the Cumberland will be mixed sleet/rain.
Per Ackerman
0.5-0.75" - Tree and power line damage. Power outages likely. Roads impassable.
1.0-1.5" - Communities shut down. Outages lasting weeks. Shelters needed.
He said that the ice storms of 2003 and 2009 were around 1" of ice or more.
If you see Jim Cantore in your town, does that mean he's there to witness bad weather or is he really the creator of bad weather?
Dude at the Walmarts was on the phone telling his wife “they’s outta butter”.
I didn’t go to the butter aisle to confirm, but rest assured, if Richmond is out of butter, that may be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.
Hunker down, friends.

If you see Jim Cantore, you are officially in “Dodge”. You know what to do next,
Guess I’ll see if my 4 wheel drive still works on my truck in the morning. Hasn’t been in it in a couple of years.
