I was there during the record of355 inches It started snowing and didn't stop for over 30 days. Never did spill a drop of beer either.
Ahhh... Brings back memories. My freshman year at Tech was '64-'65 when we got 268". I got a job clearing hockey coach John MacInnes' driveway every morning. Every morning!
Many years later we had an ice storm in Houston, TX. I was carpooling with a guy from PEI, Canada. We looked at the roads and decided to stay home and let the Texans fill the ditches with their cars, which they did. The next day at work people asked why, being from the north, we didn't come in. We said because we knew better.
They thought there was some trick to driving on glare ice. The only trick is, "Don't".
