Just In Time For School: Winter
Over our break, we had a light dusting of snow and plenty of rain, but temperatures were pretty mild. So, of course, we get our first real winter storm the weekend before classes start. Rain started falling Saturday night and it froze the moment it hit the ground. By Sunday morning, there was a sheet of clear ice on our car 1/8 of an inch thick. We had planned to go into school this morning, but after clearing another sheet of pure ice off the car this morning, we decided it might be better to just stay home. The ice eventually melted, but it's just going to freeze again tonight. What a great way to start the new semester.

I'll take our negative 12 (F) degrees over ice any day! Especially since I got to drive Rod's new Xterra to work today. We have about 4" of new snow on the ground. Pretty, but VERY cold.
Actually, the roads were pretty clear today, so it wasn't a bad drive at all. No snow here yet, but it's going to get cold (not -12 mind you, but cold).
