Hey Phil,

Good to hear from you. Actually Jarrod left yesterday and got home just fine. Once he got out of our neighborhood, the Interstates were fine and clear and most was pretty much back to normal. It's always the back neighborhoods that are the problems. The sun is out and beautiful and the snow is melting of the trees, so the next we will have is flooding in some lower areas. but Nashville is ringed by creeks, lakes and rivers, so the runoff generally takes care of itself pretty well. 

Most of this are things you see coming for a couple of days. So unless you really have to be somewhere, you can keep ahead of it. We were fine, actually went over to our neighbors on Friday, who is a sales rep for SISCO, the huge food company. So he has TONS of stuff. And I always have "emergency stores" of food,  water, heat, pretty much everything. 

Even in 96', when we got nearly THREE FEET of snow in TWO HOURS, I have been mostly able to avoid problems in most weather times. Just takes a little paying attention and being prepared. If you do a little bit of planning throughout the year, you rarely have a problem. You just know what's coming, pay attention and you will be fine.

Jarrod got a little south of us and the snow was gone and by the time he hit Alabama, it was all gone. Just a little cold. The only bad thing  was having to miss my Uncle's funeral yesterday. That kind of sucked, but what you going to do? I'll go down there before long.
