For us, the schools were called off because of the forecast, I was off anyway, and my wife took off work early. Where we live, we have to stay prepared, so it's really just another day for us. We just planned on staying home until the streets are cleared.
Yeah, you're in it too, there are thousands of motorists stranded on I-75

Kentucky State police said thousands have been in a standstill on Interstate 75 for more than 17 hours.

The interstate is completely shutdown for more than 20 miles between Mount Vernon and London. Kentucky police have shutdown traffic at mile marker 48 northbound in London City and mile marker 68 in Mount Vernon.

Police said there are currently no hotel vacancies in London, and all roadways in London remain unsafe for travel. As temperatures continue to drop this evening, roadways will continue to become more difficult to navigate.

Law enforcement is asking people to please stay indoors and off the roadways.

I-75 North is closed at Exit 41. Right now, all traffic will divert to travel on Kentucky State Route 461.
I'm off to Columbus, GA in the am, hopefully it will all be past by then.
