Finally warmed up to 40. Looks like rain the next few days and then clearing up but only high around 35 and lows in the 20's.

Were in the makings of about 10" of that white crap. I went out about 2 hrs ago and used the snowblower on 3 1/2" of it. Right now theres about 4" more, so it don't look like I did anything. I'll do it again later on and then again in the morning before Judy leaves for work.

We had freezing rain a week ago and yesterday we had a snow event. It's amazing how a few inches and some ice completely shut down the roads. Kids got stranded at schools until 11 pm at night, some didn't get home for 6 to 10 hours, hundreds of cars left on the roads. It really was a lack of DOT getting de-icer on the roads before the storm and not closing schools early, plus people not having chains and traction tires. It took me 4 hrs to go 17 miles to home from work. I had chains on, many did not. I bought 4 new traction tires for the GMC last night, feels like it can climb a mountain now.

it has been single digits here the last couple days. And it is supposed to get to almost 60 in a day or so with rain. So they called off the snow we were going to get. It will be rain instead.

I broke down started the truck and drove it to warm it up and circulate the fluids it almost time to be using it everyday

Started off a little chilly this morning, ended up with 76* the high. It was one of the driest days this year. Still right around 70*, I just took my dogs out in shorts, a t shirt, and flip flops.

Freeways are clear, but it's amazing how the cities are doing nothing about the side roads that are icy. Its finally going to thaw maybe by Sunday and back to rain.
