Well, it looks like something good has finally come from this freaky winter weather!
A bridge between Kentucky and Indiana (a major artery between the two states) had to be suddenly closed back on September 9 because workers discovered a two-inch crack in one of the main support beams. The officials said that, assuming we didn't have much severe weather, the bridge would probably reopen in early- to mid-March. Well -- SURPRISE! -- the bridge reopened at midnight last night! So now businesses can start recovering from five months of lost business, and workers can go back to a more normal commute time. (My uncle, for instance, had a 45-minute commute before the bridge shut down. But, during the last five months, he's had to add another hour each way.)
Anyway, thanks to a lack of snowfall, we got our bridge back early!
