Thanks bug!

Being trapped in that elevator with the water rising had to be a particularly harrowing experience.
|
That was f'd up
|
Got a line of storms moving across Kansas tonight. Hail and high winds. Possible tornado or two.

Granted, I also live in a state where a lot of people seem to assume is a vast desert wasteland, yet parts get feet of snow (at altitude) every year. |
Snow doesn't really surprise me. But a 100MPH snowstorm would be pretty shitty...

Record highs the last few days- this December is starting out great!

She got all worked up about the weather, which I downplayed quite a bit. So we go a day early and get a hotel room and it snows 6 ish inches. We get over to Great Wolf and it starts to snow. The storm that was forecast. For reasons unbeknownst to reasonable men, my FIL did not get his stuff out of his car. So it's mid-blizzard, people can't get out of the hotel, there's no rooms for them, everything is a fisaco, and here is Buehler445, the good soldier SIL, goes out in a heavy wet blizzard and 80MPH sustained winds. It sucked. It sucked in new and creative ways. It sucked in man killing ways. Now, your boy Buehler445 can cowboy up and endure some suck. But wifes sister forgot some makeup case or something so we did the buddy system. I carried all the luggage. She carried this little pack of whatever or something. She about didn't make it, she started slowing down and starts going down. I grabbed her up and told her to keep moving. I shifted the luggage to one hand and kept her up and moving with the free hand. With the wind abusing me, I wasn't sure I could carry her in if it came to it then go back and get the luggage, I might not have made it. I don't know what the winds were at that time, but it was in the teeth of the storm. On the way out of Colorado Springs, there were a bunch of power poles broken and a pile of cars in the ditch. I think it's Highway 94, but there is NOTHING on that road, but there were a pile of cars in the ditch. Yeah, blizzard and 100MPH would suck. |

Yeah whiteouts are the worst. I used to drive through anything and looking back, I got pretty lucky. Anymore, I check the forecast and if I see an emergency travel only, I take a pass and wait until things get better. I also pack one hell of a "just in case" kit in a big old tote, in the back of the truck. Heavy duty sleeping bag, wool blankets, fire starting stuff, several boxes of energy bars, water, etc. If it's really rank and I decide to go, I even toss in my emergency location beacon, in case I get stranded and there is no cell service. While traveling around for sales over the years, I have seen some things, I can't unsee. |
Bwana told us about his plan B.
