I thought so.

Well, if they did take off, it was from their intended airport to takeoff from. :)

Sounds like a quite a party! :eek:

During last month's snowmageddon, they put a bunch of people in a 767 and flew them to SDF for the night where there were hotel rooms.

Beer,

I'm from Chicago, I know where you are coming from. It's just a little snow, right?

But, two weeks ago I was in Atlanta for the debacle and I couldn't believe it. This place turns into Armageddon when it snows.

So, when you see SD's updates, just think of them as a impending Armageddon updates. :D

Dude, if what I saw at the 4 deep lines at the gas station today is any indication people around here ARE going to kill each other over this forecast.
