| Heading uphill on AC Road before the mirrored curve CLICK TO ENLARGE |
What was a clear road with icy patches has now turned into a snow covered winter wonderland that is VERY slippery on Apple Creek Road. Several cars on the sides of roads still, as well.
Here at the end of Staymon I've had 2.5" of new snow today and had a great deal of difficulty negotiating the steep first portion of Staymon Road heading up. Apple Creek Road gets whiter the farther you go up, and even 4WDs will have trouble depending on the slope. Take heed. Incoming cold means zero road improvements until the weekend.

Minus 4 this AM at the end of Staymon. Snow/sleet back in the forecast Friday night into Saturday, then switching to rain late Saturday through Sunday. More details will be posted Friday.
ReplyDeleteWe have a friend over by the MV Country Club who broke 3 ribs yesterday going down his driveway to pick up mail. So.....stay in as much as you can. Our crisis of the moment is that even with water running in faucets last night our hot water in the kitchen froze. So, after consulting with our plumber who probably can't make it up the hill as the roads are right now, we've turned the water off to the hot water heater and are doing things to slightly warm the pipes What fun! At least we still have cold water and we have hot water to the bathrooms when the hot water heater is on....
ReplyDeleteGood morning, Have we heard anything about them coming to plow today? I was able to get my car to the top of the drive before it started slipping in the ice. I've not seen anyone drive down, but have seen a couple people walking.
