Winter Storm '07: the revenge of '06 By on 2007-01-18 |
|
Everybody's talking about the crazy ice storm that hit the state, so maybe we should. Anybody have any good stories? Anybody get stuck? Anybody still not driving? My house hasn't fared to well, since my pipes froze, it's been under 60 F for days, and my front door is still iced shut. At least the tire chains have served me well. I took them off today, but kinda regret it since I can't get up the driveway without them. |

I moved north so I would finally get some snow winters By isax on Thu Jan 18 12:55:10 +0000 2007 |
|
and the year I do Oklahoma gets hit with two 5-year storms in the same winter? I don't get it. |

Isn't driving, my street and driveway is still slicker-n-snot, no good stories, except that I read through old stories yesterday, it was sad |

Not only can I no longer get up the driveway, but my car kept sliding down. With the parking brake on and transmission in gear, there's still nothing to hold the front wheels, so my poor car just skids back down the driveway. I think I need to swipe a pickaxe from somebody to dig out. This will not stand. |

There's more snow on the way. Latest report says to expect around 4 inches here and up to 8 further north. |
|
sounds more like a 20- By isax on Thu Jan 18 18:58:38 +0000 2007 |

or a 100-year storm. |

I'm surprised there was a reply link if you weren't logged in. If that happens again, please copy the error message and try to remember as much as possible about what you were doing. I'm having trouble figuring out what happened that last time. |

My best guess By isax on Fri Jan 19 17:56:56 +0000 2007 |
|
is that I had been previously been logged but had timed out so there was a reply option but when I selected it I wasn't logged in, make sense? |
|
yes, but I tested that By on Fri Jan 19 20:32:22 +0000 2007 |

In that scenario, the worst thing you would have gotten infinite redirects (until I fixed that bug yesterday). When posting a comment, it checks authentication stuff before touching the database. Since that would have failed, the insert wouldn't have been attempted. |
