    It’s a complete ice rink. I saw a video on Facebook of a semi w trailer sliding sideways

    I slid a couple times on the way in but just took it real slow.
    Oh my! Be sure to check in this evening so we’ll know you got home safe.

    Have tomorrow off. A close co worker is in hospital recovering from a heart attack followed by heart valve replacement. I am going to go visit and take a card signed by everyone in the shop.
    I’m sorry to hear that, hope he’ll (?) be okay!

    Good evening Dale, Shadow and KC:wub:

    Home safe :)

    It was hovering around the freezing mark and finally turned to rain. Most of the roads were bare pavement. Thank goodness. Our driveway/sidewalk/steps.... that’s another story.

    Dale, sure glad they got the forecast wrong in this case. :thumb:

    Shadow, would love to be lurking from the south right now, that’s for sure. ;)

    KC, oh no, sorry to hear about your coworker. Hope their recovery goes smoothly.

    Well in that case, darn those forecasters. Maybe it will hold off til Friday. :nun:

    When I went out at lunch, the truck was encased in ice. Even the tires Bwahaha. I started it up and let it run for a bit while I vaped. Then it wasn’t too bad at quitting time.
    :blink: I’d just have to stay home! :eek:

    For your upcoming weather or my ice?

    This system didn’t move out as quickly as they said it would. Although the advisory is or was until 1am. It showed temps in the mid 30s around 1pm but that never happened. Radar kept showing it sticking around later and later.

    Had I not called in last week, I definitely would have after I slid the first time. I was driving on a straight stretch when I felt the back veer to the left. :eek: And I have weight in the bed. But the good news is, it’s all over for now. ;) :thumb:

    I know. :( just gotta get my winter driving skills back. Hard to do when one week its like spring/summer and the next we get 2 feet and the next it’s raining and the snow is gone. Lol. Mother Nature needs to stick with one season.
