    Every form of precipitation known is coming down downtown. Even a couple I've never seen before.

    That stuff is SLICK. I just went to move the car under cover, and I nearly fell twice walking through the yard (glad I stayed off the sidewalk). And I thought I was going to have to sit on my butt and slide down the front steps.

    Sure, if the property has an H-1 or NC-1 overlay. This doesn't. I've been saying for years that more of downtown needs an overlay, but nobody wants to listen.

    (And BTW, the demolition by neglect ordinance also only applies in H-1s).

    Well Damn. I'm in Vonore and have to come through Lenoir City. It is sleeting like crazy now. Should be an interesting drive. I just hope to make it home tonight. Going to work tomorrow morning may be a challenge.
