It's Snowing

It snowed a lot over the past weekend here in Norman, Oklahoma. Im from Texas and although it lies just South of the border, it snowed up a blizzard these past few days. Enduring through this arctic blast being as ill-prepared as I was allowed me to realize a lot about snow survival.

First of all chances are your car is going to transform itself into a quarentine-like state. Quarentine meaning every door is sealed shut by the death grip of ice. Additionally, all windows will be blanketed layer upon layer with ice topped off with a few inches (depending on your region of the country) of fluffy white powder. To disengage the ice from clamping the doors shut, you need to break up the ice and peal it away either by hand or with a skinny utensil. Once you've completed this, the next step is to get inside the car, turn it on, and allow the defrosting period to take place. As your car warms up get any standard ice scraper and begin forceibly rubbing off the ice on the windshield, finishing up by the trunk window. Once those few tasks have been handeled, drive slow.



Your main goal for a freezing cold week: stay warm. Nothing is worse than being "out in the cold" so make sure you stay warm like you're hydrating through a summers day.
