Did it get you too?  My lawn is an ice skating rink.  The roads are still somewhat bad after 2 days of freezing rain.

We got 4 straight days of rain but the temp stayed too high for freezing rain.  It stopped raining yesterday and the temp fell like a rock.  There's nothing on the roads but BRRRRRRRRRRR.  :(

We got LOTS of rain and then last night we got some freezing rain then a light dusting of snow. It's the first time this winter that my yard is covered. I saw all of the ice out west of us and was going to ask if any of you lost power but I guess if you did you can't see this post as they are saying that it may be the end of the week to get most of it back on!

BD, has this caused you a lot of overtime and extra work?

Yeah. The overtime is available to all but im not willing to travel outside the city. Unless they force me to do so but more likely they wont.

My neghibor dropped about 40# of salt on the drive yesterday.  Kind of sounds like a gravel drive.  Bring on the snow, I'm tired of looking at brown other than the green back yard.

Stop with the damn freezing rain.  I'm just finishing repacking my bags from being deployed on the last one when I was in Decatur.
