I have to drive to the airport, 40 miles, to pick up the wife at 11pm tonight, and they're predicting freezing rain and snow. I don't like driving on ice. It was fun, back when I was young and immortal. As you get older, you start to realize what could be the consequences if something goes wrong. I wish I could be young and immortal again.

They predict 1-3 inches of snow tonight, then cold for the weekend and 6+ inches of snow Monday. Temps are supposed to be 10 or more degrees F below average for the next week............ Global warming????

Well I'm still immortal. Not through my works, but by not dying.

It's a Minnesota blizzard, the usual January weather, a few inches of snow, temps near zero and 30mph wind.......... except, it's March. Spring starts in two days.

Oh, and I have to drive to St Peter in the morning, about 20 miles of icy road.

We had bipolar weather last week. It would be a small snow storm one moment, bright sunshine the next :swt:

40 degrees F today.......and snowing! Will we ever get done with this winter?

I caught the stomach flu that my granddaughter had when she was here last weekend. It wasn't fun at all, and I still feel crappy. I hope tomorrow is better.

I feel better, but now it's cold and last night we had a few inches of snow.......... and maybe 7 inches tonight. I hope they're wrong about that.

It's still snowing. It's the middle of April, you'd think this would have to end sometime soon.
