We live on a gravel rd and our drive is 1/4 mile long . the ice is melting on the trees and the front porch ( concrete slab ) but the roads were already snow packed then this ice , now the mist and melt has made this a bad bad deal . cant walk in the drive or on the gravel. took the truck 4wh drive to check the mail and had to drive in the grass to get there only to find our mail man and a couple of 4 wh drive trucks in the road stuck on both sides of the driveway. everyone waiting for help. dont have a set of chains for the tractor so I cant help . checked on everyone then turned around in the grass and came home. I have 6 butcher hogs in the trailer in the barn , supposed to take to the butcher shop this morning. UUUGGGHHH !
Several family members and a buddy down your way said they stayed in this morning.
A cousin outside of Strasburg slid from the drive onto county road then just the crown slid him sideways back into the field. Said he just turned towards the house and stayed in the field. Called it a day before 6 this morning.
HVAC guy is between Urich and Blairstown and said he hadn't left the house as of 9 this morning.
