[QUOTE="joethelawyer, post: 4596047, member: 55764"] I grew up in Connecticut, but lived in Colorado for about 4 years. One day we got three and a half feet of snow in 24 hours when I was living in Denver. Living back in Connecticut now, looking out the window at the 1 inch of snow (they are predicting a whopping 6 inches!!) I just laugh. It was a bitch to shovel out of that though. There was a period of time when I lived in the mountains of Colorado, in areas where there was 30 miles between towns, and nothing in between but 10,000 foot elevation mountain passes, bear, and deer. I had a scary 2 am drive at 10,500 feet, where the snow came out of nowhere and reduced visibility to 10 feet, with nothing to the right of me except the sheer cliff with a 700 foot drop and no guardrail, and to the left of me were oncoming vehicles on slippery roads. After that I made it a point to always keep enough clothes, food, and survival gear in my car to last me 3 days in the very worst conditions. [/QUOTE]
