Winter scores a point

From Dan: How the crime of copyright infringement took $1 million from me and brought down my business.

I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. This page is a detailed account of the biggest threat to my photography and video operation that I had to battle daily to just barely survive, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem facing all of my colleagues as well.

A light coating of snow is already on the ground in Charleston, what I consider a 'point scored' for winter. A lot earlier in the evening than I expected to see. Still too warm for road problems at this point.

While out checking on the bridges, I did come across this bizarre accident on the I-77 curve downtown - non-ice related, as nothing was sticking yet.

I'll be outside keeping an eye on this event, though with salt trucks already running I doubt there will be any problems.
