Wrecker just left, got me out of my driveway no problem. We are 1" on snow on top of frozen rain so no traction at all. My brother got out but I couldn't so called AAA and they came right out. Not sure where I will park but I am moving on the highway now. Boy this weather sucks huh? Well I just finished 38sp and 357 brass for a friend but I don't have the blue bullets yet to finish them for a friend. Kind of funny as I have loaded for this retired LEO in the past but he hasn't shot any yet. Kind of weird but he hears me talk about this load or that load and he wants some. I do um but like 50 of what he wants but he never shoots them. Oh well. hope everyone is OK concerning the weather and all. Craig

Here in North Alabama, we have all ice and very little snow. I live on a backroad along the Tennessee River and it is impassable.

Just frozen in MN, -17 this morning

8-10" of snow in my part of Michigan from 8pm yesterday until about 9am today. But I haven't owned a vehicle that wasn't 4wd since 1993. So no problems here.

Will be close to that in MN on Monday, that's like short pants weather after the last two weeks 😀

Hell, even 6 degrees above zero yesterday felt pretty nice. I did see something over the weekend that computer models have consistently shown 60's by the second week of March. Fingers crossed. I miss being in the boat.

Absolutely, anything above 0 even seems nice

I know some of you northern folks laugh at Texas but this is dang cold for us.

This is what it still looks like at my house 4 days later.

Had 16" standing on the deck railing this morning. I would guess accounting for blow-off and compaction we got about 18-20" overnight.

Took my three youngest kids about 2.5 hours to shovel the back, side and front driveway. But, no ice underneath so as long as you had 4X4 and some clearance in your vehicle you were fine.

My area was spared most of the winter mix issues, but it wasn't very far from me. We did get into the teens for quite some time.
Today were finally got above freezing but we are expecting serious rain and possibly bad thunder storms with slight chance of tornado activity.
Then as this front passes we will turn colder again! ${$default_embarrassed_smiley}$

We only have 4 or 5 inches in MN currently, but temp wise, I telll-ya, 1 degree feels pretty nice😀

Hey Ken it was a sweltering 22 today when I got up and going to 25 for today's high. It's like a tropical heat wave. I hate winter!!!! Craig
