ok... how about being stuck in a sea of subarus - all with studded tires "driving" down a freshly sanded hwy at a roaring 5mph! Half of them are piling up because they saw a snow flake and now can't get going faster than 1mph!
If they start to slide... they are forced (by law I think) to punch the gas until they are blocking as much of the road as possible than stop... call 911 for assistance.
There was a 30% change of snow today... only a 30% chance... and 1/4 of the schools closed for the day... or are on 2 hour delays!
The temps are supposed to get down into the 20's so they are telling everyone to let some water drip from their pipes or they will burst. That they can't be exposed to that cold of air without getting frostbite... to make sure and cover all their plants and bring in the pets!
There are parts of the country that party at a heatwave of +20 degree temps in the spring!
Three of my bike-only coworkers are planning to take tomorrow off due to 'dangerous' weather! They live less than one mile from the office and on a direct bus route!
