Here in Virginia, we are preparing for a major snow storm this weekend. Our joke here is when there's a storm coming, everyone runs to the store for milk, bread, and toilet paper. What would you get?

We are supposed to get it here in NC as well. And the shelves at the grocery store were bare of milk and bread! Yes, I went to the grocery store tonight! No, it wasn't for milk and bread, just the norm. I wasn't even thinking about the storm until I couldn't find a cart anywhere and then it hit me!

Chrissi Chapman Topoleski that happens here every storm. I keep my home sticked and stay far away from any store before a storm. Looks like you may get all the snow as it appears to be heading out to sea before it hits us.

We don't worry about those. We get flashlights and batteries ready, fill tubs with water in case power goes out, fill trash cans with water in garage so we have supply for horses, might put up snow fence to deter drifts across driveway, stock some wood in garage for fireplace, have snow shovels ready, get bird seed!
