Trapped!
As the great American philosopher Jimmy Buffett said:
"It's so goddamn cold it's gonna snow until June, Yeah, they're freezin' up in Buffalo stuck in their cars"
The roads are clear, and ID HWY 55 is 300' from my garage, I just can't get up the driveway. ARGH! (24' vertical rise over 300')
Oh well, guess I'll be driving the 93 GMC K1500 for a while. WhooHoo! (and we're talkin' 4.3 liters of American made V-6)

Tustin California. 66 degrees with nice puffy clouds. Roads are dry. Think I'll go for a ride down to Starbucks. It doesn't get much nicer than this!! (I feel your pain) Rod

It is that time of year for the white stuff to start falling. We are expecting snow tonight and tomorrow but thankfully not much in the way of accumulation. But, looks like it will be a while before mine gets out of the garage again.

It snowed here in Southern Kentucky a week ago, melted the next day and we don't expect any more. I played golf Sunday in short sleeves. However it has started raining and is supposed to continue for the next six days but at least there's no snow!!

There's some treacherous roads in your area. I once slid down the Boise side of the Horseshoe Bend grade on 95 on glare ice. A early 70s Cadillac was ahead of me, and it banged through a small pileup just ahead, and I slid through the gap untouched. Worst visit to my mom's in Boise, ever.

It only got up to 83° here today. It was overcast and drizzled some.
