I just got back from picking up Wifey at work. The parking lot was like a skating rink. I went to turn up to the corner of the lot where I usually meet her and the car just kept going straight, right towards two big concrete planters that block entry to a paved area where they don't want cars. I got the car stopped just in time. It would have been a slo-mo crash into them at less than 5 MPH, but it still would have hurt. Very nasty roads here in central IL tonight.

Be safe up there brother! Looking at that huge pile up in Maryland was no joke.

Yep, we are a little further south - high was 80 today and low is expected to be 26-29 by morning. And 50mph winds when the thing is due to blow thru.

Dallas here - Was outside with my dog during the first big drop. The wind kicked up and you could feel the temperature fall. I think my dog could feel it more than I could, he got really uncomfortable and wouldn't do his business.

My sister in Orlando keeps texting me similar messages.

Crap like that.

Don't worry, we'll have our 2 months of unbearable heat in a good 7 months or so.

Until then, expect more of the same.

No news flash there to any cowboy fan. They seem to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory countless times...

I'm watching NFL network and they are saying today's game in Chicago will be the coldest in their history!!! 5 degrees. I can't even imagine attending any outdoor functions in temps like this.
