Damn, got up this morning and no water. We're on a well and when it gets below 10* the switch tends to fail. I'll have to get that fixed for sure. Not sure if I'll try to make the 40 mile trip to work. About 10" of ice and snow so not too bad but 40-50 mph winds suck. Good luck to everyone else.

Yeah, Lee, just wait 'til the temperature drops this evening. All that rain will become a little more solid- and slick. Hope you leave the 'vette at home, you know how these idiots around here are with the slightest hint of winter weather. The worst of the storm may miss us for the most part, but the northern part of the state's gonna get hammered, I believe.

You should see the people here. We get 1/4" of snow, and there are cars all over the road. I think they teach them the following in drivers ed here...

In inclement weather, you should...

1. Nail the accelerator from every stop.
2. Slam on the brakes at the slightest hint of trouble.
3. Tailgate....the closer the better...the car in front will help you stop.
4. Herky Jerky steering wheel movements provide the best control.
5. Above all, don't forget to keep texting.

The wind is pretty strong and according to the license plate it was a Texas VW. Take a closer look.

I think I have had enough of this winter, the snow plows are more routine than the mail carrier. Two weeks until pitchers and catchers, so spring is around the corner.

Well it's 0615, it's 9 degrees in El Paso with snow, and it's 30 degrees in Edmonton according to the weather gizmos. Either the earth has tipped off its axis, or Hell has officially frozen over.

Didn't feel like pulling an Almanac, is snow in El Paso about as common as snow in LA?

We've got the Devil winds caused by your guys storms, cold ass winds with up to Hurricane force gusts in the Mountains/Passes-started last night.

Somebody's pretty pissed off at all of us
