All we got in Rock Hill last night was rain. In translating the radar imagery:
Green - good.
Blue - good.
Pink - don't want at all.
The pink line (snow, ice, mix) was very narrow. Leaving the house this morning, and to the State line was all wet, no white. Soon after crossing into NC, there were 2-3 inches on the ground. Nothing stuck to the roads. It just made it pretty.
Visitied Wichita once or twice in the dead of winter - no thanks. Also spent one winter living out of a hotel in Detroit. You folks can keep that to. However, you can send me some of the pizza from one of the Pizzapapalis stores. Man, that is some good pizza. Now if we can get some of Trep's home brew to go with it . . .

How much snow do you actually have on the ground ROB? Our temps here in IL are getting close to yours, at least we might make 25!!
It's not really that bad by comparison to what we should have. There's only a foot or so, but we keep getting this dusting steadily that makes driving all greasy on the roads. And the wind keeps moving what snow there is. You clean off the sidewalk and an hour later, the same stupid snow is right back there! Actually a little more would be welcome, you can throw it against the house as insulation, but we don't have enough to do that. Temps like this do funny things to cars. I snapped the handle for the hood release on my wifes van, and the thermostat is stuck open so it doesn't warm up. Then my truck lost the blower so no heat there either. I have a full auto weekend planned! Plastic in cars and sub zero don't mix. We have to start the cars about 20 minutes in advance to let them warm up before moving them. You punch the gas on a cold tranny and you'll snap belts and cost yourself $1500.....gotta love the north country. Bassus, champlain, hmmmmmm, bassus, mountains.......best fishery in the country.....remember that Rob, that's why you stay....yes.......bassus! Dey luv sparkles! LOL durn fever.
Check it out!!!! We had a January once where it NEVER got above 0 degrees once the whole month. They had towns built on the ice it was so thick. I remember needing an extension for my auger because the ice got over 30" thick and it didn't melt until almost May.

Hey Rob, according to the website, it looks like the weather isn't too good for golf either! When I lived in Northern Wisconsin, I had a block heater for my car and actually forgot to unplug it in the morning and dragged a 25ft extension cord 20 miles to work! Loved that heater though. The car started up and was nice and toasty pretty quick. But them brews would blow up if left in the car!

It's a brisk -11 degrees F with a forecasted low of -14. Thank God for an insulated home and a furnace that had its annual service at the start of winter! Also, the remote truck starter with a timer is worth its weight in gold on days like this. Keep warm!!
