re: The Birmingham weather people dropped the ball big time

What a day. Tried to get from Hoover to Homewood and just couldn't find a way. Jack-knifed trucks and skidding cars everywhere. It was like The Day After Tomorrow out there. Roving hoards of people just abandoning their cars and trekking it by foot. Finally had to ditch my car and hike a few miles to a friend's house.

Spann and other blew it big time. Not only were they wrong, they were smug. Span was calling out and making fun of anyone who predicted snow for Bham. His arrogance led to a lot of the mess we saw today. I just find it hard to believe that even at 8am this morning, nobody with authority considered this as a possibility.
