Drifts

This is a photo of Reiboldt Road in the northwest corner of Franklin County. You can see that the drifts are about 4-5 feet deep. Yesterday, a snow plow was trying to clear the road and got stuck. I'm sure there are a lot of roads that look just like this or even worse across the area.
A new storm is taking shape and is predicted to be in the area Sunday afternoon and evening. At this point, the potential for 5-6 inches of snow exists. Will that amount actually fall? I don't know. I've seen some model forecasts take the snow through Kentucky while others bring the heaviest snowfall through our area. If there's going to be a significant accumulating snow across the area, the NWS in Wilmington or Indianapolis will likely issue a winter storm watch by Friday evening. I really hope we get another 5 or 6 inches of snow.
