I assume you're referring to the snow? How much are you getting up that way? We're in blizzard conditions just north of Louisville, KY. Already have about 12in, and it's still coming down. I just read that Cincy could be getting at least 15in. I heard that a few interstates were also closed down due to jack-knifed tractor trailers. Be careful!

Hope you're holed up someplace nice, Manc, and not driving in that.

At least you can leave Columbus. Others have to live there year round.

Holy crap! I was there about 5 months ago. You're close to Rickenbacker which was known as Lockbourne AFB decades back. Enjoy your stay there. Your close to Germantown. There should be a couple good brewpubs there.

Yep - 67 degrees here a week ago ... about 12" of snow on the ground right now. Welcome to Ohio weather.

My sister lives in Chesterland. When Dad talked to her earlier, there was 2 feet of snow and it was still coming down.

I felt slightly jealous.
