No school again today (page 2)

I just got home from running some errands, and it's thrilling out there on the roads. It is 25 degrees, and the roads are all icy. Some are clear and dry, but lots of them look wet but are really solid ice. Had to drive nice and slow. Everyone else was also driving slow. No one wants a fender bender.

I took the car to the Toyota dealership for a once over, after our dive into the ditch on Sunday. All is well structurally, but I scheduled the work to repair the cosmetic damage. New bumper to the tune of $700. At least the undercarriage is undamaged.

Unfortunately they are predicting more snow for us tomorrow.

this is so strange,

we have a record after record of the warmest day and months since written history here.

I was sitting a bit to the left in that Seahawks picture. My friend and I drove through some crazy ice and snow to get to the game. Had a blast, yelled until my throat was raw and took over two hours to drive 20 miles home. So much fun.

I finally got to my house at midnight. Didn't even bother setting the alarm. I knew they'd cancel school with the roads like an ice rink. I just hope they have school tomorrow!

This cold snap is good for us in the plumbing business. We should be busy with freeze breaks for the next couple of days. Unfortunately, it's still hard to get to the customers. Steve has been trying to get to a customer for 2 hours but the ice is hampering his efforts...

Blame it on "Global Warming"!

Ozzie, I was sure you were going to brag about how hot it is in Sydney in November.

No school today (Thursday) either. Three days and counting..................more snow tonight. I love it if I can stay inside and look out at it.

It was sixy here yesterday. By here, I'm talking about MinneSNOWta. 60! You guys are freezing in washington and we're confused about what to wear here. LOL.

Where I'm at it's not so bad, but it's icey. Yesterday it took my husband 2 hours to drive 25 miles to work.

This evening we are having turkey with all the trimming, believe it or not. So we'll feeling full and cozy tonight.

Cloudy and nice here in Dallas supposed to hit 80 today and then WA storm hits here thursday with a hard freeze upper 20's and cold friday and then back to 70's for the weekend. I wish it would snow

Check the weather again. It's not supposed to get over 55 degrees here until next Friday, Dec. 08. Get ready to deal with a bunch of idiots on the streets. Either they utterly have no idea how to drive on it and can't get over 5 mph, or they think they're impregnable in their SUVs and go 60 mph over bridges.... and then brake!

Daystar I'm listening to the news now and the temp is supposed to drop by as much as 40 degrees in a couple hours some time Thursday afternoon and not get out of the 30's and then warmer by Saturday.

You are right about the drivers. I take the high 5 from work to home but on icey days I go the back way and stay off any elevated structures just too dangerous. If it is iced up too much I don't even open the shop.
