Prayers for whomever Duke Life flight is coming in to pick up.

Snow is sticking to the porch. Coming down good. Bonus rescue squad drive by. Prayers for those folks having to be out in this weather.

Snowing pretty good in South Boston. Sticking to the porch a little.

Below is a list of rules for this page.

List of Rules for Halifax County/South Boston News and Weather page comment section

1. No Profanity

2. No Hate Speech

3. Be respectful of other opinions.

4. No Drama

Below is rules specific for scanner posts

1. No Names

2. No types of Vehicle’s concerning accidents.

3. No gory details

I am sure over time I will add to this as things come up. My goal with this page is to keep people informed of what is happening around them. It is not so when I post about a wreck you can go ambulance chase. If you do just remember it could be your love one in the wreck and if you get in the way you are only hurting things. I also am not doing this so people find out that a loved one has been in a wreck or has terrible injuries. It is solely so you can avoid area, take alternate routes and of course a prayer never hurts. I also have several things in place to not put Law Enforcement in any jeopardy with these type posts. So, if you comment and it gets deleted and you want to know why feel free to message me and I will be glad to explain. I also reserve the right to delete any post or comment that I see fit. I am going to try hard to not turn off commenting, but I also am not going to put up with a ton of drama. Life is too short. Finally. I know there are some who do not like or agree with posting wrecks, accidents and some of the scanner posts. I respect your opinion but I am going to include that on this page so it probably would be best just to not like and unfollow page. I am not going to debate it on here. I am going to do everything possible to make this page respectable in all that we post. Also, to make sure nothing could interfere or harm any one trying to do their jobs.
