Heavy snow now. Supposed to change over to sleet/freezing rain sometime late afternoon/early evening, then rain around midnight. Blah. I need to time when the changeover to freezing rain will be so I can run out and dig out my car before the snow on and around it turns into a sheet of ice.

We're looking at the same thing tomorrow. Pain in the ass.
It was only a matter of time I'm afraid...Our sun is burning out people, only a finite time remains.
Take today for example, sun is shining as bright as a beautiful summer day but the temperature is -20 C, wind chill of -31 C...we call this brisk in Canada!

It's -21C and -34C on high ground. Snow blindness is a definite possibility right now. I hope it doesn't hit me on the to get groceries this morning. ;)
Woke up to snow and ice again. Took me almost an hour to get to work, normally a 20 minute drive. Went 1 way, accident, turned around went another way, accident ugh..
Was told yesterday "a dusting, no accumulation", 6 inches and counting so far...still snowing, gonna snow tomorrow afternoon and again Thursday.
Drove to work, was about 15 minutes late, no small achievement, and then gave the truck to the wife...who rode along. it's stuoid crazy deep, thick and wet at the moment. Mind you, if it was all flat land, it wouldn't matter. That or we were all goats...
Suppose to be getting 6" Wednesday night. I FUCKING LEFT MICHIGAN FOR A REASON DAMNIT!!!!
Umm, that's my line?
Home today, snow somewhat melted a bit, enough to freeze under the snow and I'm not willing to push my luck. I did buy 100 pounds of salt last night from Tractor Supply though just need to be picky where I put it. Everyone else is out of salt.
"Trace Mineral Salt", Tractor Supply, $7.50 per 50lbs bag and no one usually looks at it.
All the "snow" salt sold out, a pallet of this in the back of the store with the feed. Works great. I'll never buy the regular stuff again. Hell, I'll probaby buy a 55 gallon can n lid and keep some handy here on out.
6" of heavy soaking wet snow. Blower handled most of it but lots of elbow grease still required. Had to be done before it froze.
The big plows came around last night. Winging back the tops if the snow banks. Guess what landed in many driveways. Huge frozen chuncks of ice. We were out for a walk and I felt sorry for some people.
Hopefully only a fee more days of negative 5F lows...in northern Wisconsin they still have to deal with -22F lows...so tired of winter, all I need are some highs around 30F.
Hopefully our winter has finally ended. Raining here but supposed to get up to 60 today and stay in the upper 50's and low 60's for the next week. Hooray!!
it's 10 below atm in Tennessee, wth? tHIS IS THE SOUTH!
I'm in the same boat over here in NC!
It's a balmy 1 degree in Northern Va this morning with a wind chill of about -10 to -15. Just glad my car starts.
From 10 under to 27 over...
bah...

Finally warmed up yesterday. Most of the snow is gone and my driveway is no longer ice.
Only thing that's been going in and out my drive's been my old Dodge. ferrying everyone down to the road when needed.
Looks like it'll leave today, we're the last to melt off usually.
The media is making hay with the tiniest weather deviation. Hyping it much?
What ever happened to the good old days when we talked about the weather to our neighbour outside?
Are we supposed to cower inside and wait for the next harrowing weather report?

Another blast suppose to hit tonight. Going to be icey since it's suppose to be rain from 7pm until about 9 when it turns to snow.

3 inches of snow coming my way tonight. Not as much as further south but a pain nonetheless.
Just looked at the radar and the moisture heading up out of the gulf area is huge.
Got my truck down off the steep part of the drive and the car is down the drive almost to the road.
Can't do more than wait at this point.
3" of wet snow. Ugh!!
Just got an inch in Northern VA. Don't even need to shovel.
Almost 6...

Couple more weeks and this will be behind us.
Is chunck Canadian for chunk?

40's Sat, 50's Sunday, 60's dare I say it Monday? All rain of course...sounds good to me...
8 inches of snow yesterday. Better be the last snow storm for this winter!!
Same here. So done with this shit. Local news was quoting last month as the 12th coldest February since they started tracking it back in the 1800s.
Looks like another 30-40 cm 12-16 in coming here, through to Sunday night. Blizzard. Bah!
Hopefully our winter has finally ended. Raining here but supposed to get up to 60 today and stay in the upper 50's and low 60's for the next week. Hooray!!
