Exclamation Seriously stranded in a blizzard :(
I'm in south central Kansas stranded on a backroad while this blizzard comes through. We're in my wife's KIA sorento and snow is up past the doors where we can't open them. We were trying to make it back to the hotel and didn't make it. Just waiting around for help and thought I'd post



If you don't HAVE to drive.... Don't

Wow I hope you folks are alright and that help arrives soon. That is not a good situation to be in. The car still runs right so you are not sitting in the complete cold?

If your wife doesn't make it, make sure to mark where you placed the body -- you may need to eat her later just to survive.......
