Quote from: "Smitty"Well, apparently when I schedule a trip to Northern Indiana, it snows. I'm going to stop trying.

Oh, so, you're the one we have to blame for this. :D

Apparently.

We stopped in Spencer to regroup, since it was getting bad out, and we were already behind. I decided to come back home, and passed two ambulances and several police cars on the way. Also, I heard tell of a major pile-up on I-69, which was my route. I'd say I did ok on that decision.

El Seed · February 05, 2009, 09:58:49 AM

RAIN!!!!

Thundershowers expected! :D

It is fricking COLD here today. I've not been cold like this in a while.

Megan · February 05, 2009, 05:07:33 PM

Yup. I don't really mind the cold so much, but I'm ready for all the frickin' ice to melt.

Cloudbursts are the order today. Clearing tomorrow for the Chinese New Year parade, then back to showers.

This is great, but now what we need is a decent Sierra snowpack.

It was 28Â° this morning and my windshield was covered with frozen rain.

My radio has been broken and I've been talking to myself to kill time during my commute. Today I yelled out in a haughty English accent "there is no reason, only rime."

El Seed · February 09, 2009, 12:06:26 PM

I park under a carport, or I'd have the same thing.

No English accent, but otherwise the frosty problem thingie.

TheTick · February 09, 2009, 02:56:22 PM

It's actually above freezing here for a few days, which is great. Too much ice/snow on the ground.

El Seed · February 09, 2009, 03:19:46 PM

Yeah, I saw that. Glad to see you guys thawing out.

TheTick · February 09, 2009, 03:32:15 PM

In the past week it's been as low as -8 (before windchill) and as high as 50.

I've started putting an old towel over my windshield at night. Then, when I wake up in the morning, I don't have to scrape it, though sometimes I still have to scrape other windows.

El Seed · February 09, 2009, 06:37:11 PM

Just crack off that old towel.

The Genuine · February 09, 2009, 09:35:04 PM

Do you mean to suggest that JonBoy's technique won't fly in your jurisdiction?
