Re: weather


10F here at not quite 6 am. Probably a bit less "officially". Roads not bad last night & no thaw or precipitation to add ice overnight, so my short commute should be OK. Take care if you have to drive on the ice. Granddaughter is enjoying the few inches of snow here. I'm staying out of it as much as I can.

Well this morning the roads have a white sheen of salt but at least I didn't slid thru some intersection....and the wind died down too!..... although by
noon it is supposed to start snowing here and they are predicting about 6
inches by tomorrow morning.... sigh.

Yeah, well I started out for work this morning and was sliding all over the place. Turned around and came home. Not worth it to me. Just emailed the
boss.  Wayne's wife just called and said he isn't gonna make it either.
It's an ice skating rink out there.  UGH.

covering everything...and slid my way to work again....

No salt used here either, but didn't find that odd at all.  I thought
the
use of salt for ice/snow had been illegal for decades??  I know in
Germany
it
was made illegal to use salt on the roads and sidewalks 20+ years  ago,
due
to
the harm to the environment, dog's feet, etc.

When I  was getting my first cup of coffee this AM, I looked out the
back  door to see about 3 inches of snow on the table on the deck. No
snow  plows here, and Oregon is too green to salt, so we'll probably
see  it laying around for a while. Right now the sun's out, but
it's
only  23 degrees, so not much chance it will melt anytime  soon.
