ice and snow...lovely

Well I will be at home all day as I called work off today. It snowed last night and iced everything over...there is water on the roads with ice....and all of dfw only has like 4 sand trucks.....no joking..that's about all we have...they use dump trucks with people in the back tossing the dirt out when its bad...or using graders to remove snow/ice


so long story short...I would not be pulling any trailer today...none of my guys will be pulling any trailers so its just better to stay home (people here do not know how to drive on wet roads let alone iced roads)

lmfao must stink being central south huh :-p come to Fl never see snow......... people still cant drive during any weather though. smh

we got the same front just hitting us now, then its gonna be like 55 degrees tomorrow thats arkansas

Come on guys...up here in Michigan we pull trailers all winter long

now you gotta stop for gas and sleep sometime :) my sense of humor is lame bud funny to me just kidding and you guys by the end of hte day will probably wish i had a car to cut up

people down here do not know how to drive on it...I can drive on ice and snow just fine...now pulling a trailer..I will pass on that....people here cant even drive with water on the road

I recently checked the forecast and it seems like we may get a lil snow early in the am. Tomorrows my day off so I really could care less.

Im laughing at you all right now as i sit by my pool in shorts cooking a steak. Keep ur white stuff to urselves :-p

There has been snow on the ground here since oct. I did skip a day of work when it was -50 though.

i can see the pool and i am still wearing shorts but it is about 30 degrees

I am from Canton Ohio so snow and ice is pretty common to me. I love the brake riders on the highway though. I really miss the snow allot 2 inches or more in saint louis and the news runs constantly and they shutdown everything its a joke. Easy when are you going to be headed this way up I-44 to your destinations.

should be on the 20th but I may have to push the date based on a few factors will have to see how this week runs.

We got two inches from the same system.

.................................................. ............................................. -50
...................

No thanks.

I remember a few years back -11 for the high and -27 below at night. That day my fuel pump went out. And I thought that was bad. We had two weeks whare the high temp wasnt above freezing. -50, wow

Being from MN n knowing ppl from down south I know the roads are also developed differently due to constants between southern states n varaibles in states such as mine...but as evident by some of the vids on tru tv, they got it right, southern folk just cant drive in harsh weather...wish i had a couple vids...lol... I for 1 can say this winter has been a blessing...not 1 blizzard

That way when global warming really takes off and the polar ice caps melt and we enter the next iceage youll at least know how to drive in it. LOL couldnt resist.

Well down here when that happens knowledge of how to make a boat out of a cooler and grocery store bags, will come in handy.

Well yesterday we where back in the 70s =)

2 inches of wet snow in Vancouver BC and it's pandamonium! All-season tires don't cut it, there are wrecks everywhere. I'm 300 miles north of there and the locals know how to prepare their vehicles to drive in ice and snow, but the folks moving here to escape the big city are a menace on the roads. Keep the rubber side down and the shiny side up!
