You know, just looking at that photo gives me chills. I still wonder if I'll ever be properly equipped for such low temperatures!coyote said: ↑why wait for christmas?

sunny and 8F (-13C) with a few stray snowflakes
We got a glorious blanket of snow overnight. It's beautiful, and I am insanely happy that I get to stay in bed today and enjoy it from the warm indoors. :bigsmile: I'll try to get a pic posted if my laziness allows.

not here. unless we get over a foot of snow and ice overnight and the plows haven't had time to clear the roads yet. if the buses can't operate safely, they close school.
as for work... things just slow down a bit while people deal with it. as soon as the roads are clear, everything goes back to normal :thumbup:
the state and county highway departments have a whole fleet of snowplow trucks that also spread sand or salt on the ice
lots of people make extra money in the winter by mounting snowplows on the front of their trucks. they go around clearing private driveways and parking lots on a contract basis.
the worst part for me is having to shovel the sidewalks all around my store, which is like a whole a block. good morning exercise 🙂

You midwesterners got snow and cold before we did. Can I have some? Last week when I was away a nasty ice/snow storm hit here and apparently made everything an icy frozen mess, then we got a freak warm spell this week and now everything is slushy and muddy. The last two days were over 50F, yesterday it got to nearly 60F. Now today it's back down to 35F with rain and snow mix, and then tomorrow it's supposed to be 28F. Such weird weather for December. I really just want my snow for the holidays.

yeah, it was up in the 40's on wednesday, so everything melted off - the frigid temps moved in overnight. snow predicted Sun-Tues.
