I weathered this storm out with my parents in Huffman, and we had 18 inches (not a drift). That was pretty scary!

I was driving to panama city, fla. from indianapolis ,In. Hit the very start of the storm, the night it rolled in. 12 hour trip took 23 hours.We drove straight through.5 mph throught alabama.crazy.

I have photos from this storm. Lived on a hill, and the way the wind blew the snow, exactly one half of my car was covered from top to bottom. I sank into snow up to my knees. Never seen anything like it, don't know if I will again. But the best thing was the "thundersnow". THAT was awesome!

Haha! Look at all the cars in the background on the road updates! How funny how cars have changed in just less than 20 years!

Thanks for posting this! Now, I have a better idea of this storm. heh. I live in Birmingam.. but was only three years old when this storm hit. I only have various, rough images in my mind of it. I would like to experience something like this at 21, but don't think we'll ever see something like this again.

I worked over off of Finley Boulevard then. One of our locations in LA radioed us and told the office we needed to leave ASAP. I had a beat up VW Beetle at the time and it was perfect to drive from Finley/Norwood, over Red Mountain Expressway, and to Highland Avenue. We were stuck in our apartment for nearly 4 days.
