Winter Storm Q Producing some extra Job Security for Auto Adjusters

Looks like winter isn't going away without a fight! This is why I don't take weather advice from an overgrown squirrel... ;)  Also, the name of this winter storm would also suggest that meteorologists have run out of clever names for snow storms this season.

Winter Storm Q Thu. Night

Winter Storm Q is bringing a dangerous mix of sleet, snow and ice to the mid-west!  Q is also responsible for creating a tornado that has ripped the roof off of a home in Clayton, Louisiana.  Countless car crashes are being reported, some of which producing fatalities.  Over 18 inches of heavy snow has been reported in Nashville, Kansas.  Freezing rain is snapping 4 to 6 inch diameter tree branches in Missouri.  Ripley, Illinois is seeing 6.1 inches of snow at this time.  Snow is still coming down in Nebraska but it would appear that this has not closed any roads or schools in the state.

Indiana and Ohio are starting to get the business, causing winter weather warnings that will bring a dangerous morning commute to work.  If you have to drive in any of these areas, take it slow and stay safe! However, it is being advised that you stay off the roads if possible.

The dangerous conditions aren't expected to last very long. Temperatures are supposed to reach the upper 40's across most of the mid-west this weekend.
