There is ice all over the place. My driveway and sidewalk is covered with a combination of ice and frozen leaves.

Yeah mine too. I shoveled in the morning yesterday, but it kept coming down after left for work. Of course once you get home, it’s all ice. I salted around the garage, but the vast Pulte Estates driveway is too long to properly clear with salt. :wink:

I think north and west got way more than we did here in the SW burbs. This was not a shovel worthy snow. It just coated everything to make the roads and driveways dangerous and slippery as hell. Hopefully the sunshine melts a little bit of it today.

That stuff froze pretty quickly yesterday. Patches of ice all over my driveway, salted some, but like an ice rink.

I bet it's an all concrete driveway too. So you gotta buy the more expensive non-corrosive salt. #DenisWorldProblems

No, it’s blacktop. It actually melts really well if the sun comes out because of the blacktop.

We did get a decent amount NW. Plus we have terrible drifts, so even when you clear it, I often have snow back on the driveway in the morning.

Of course this is all first world problems. But this is the thread where we complain about it.

Meant to go get my batteries tested and possibly swapped out yesterday...ran out of time.

Had to jumpstart the truck this morning. I deserved that.

I believe he's in the HVAC business; this cold is probably killing a few furnaces because people didn't get them ready for winter.

There has never been better circumstances set up to work from home on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

DANGEROUS winds? I fear for my safety. No thank you.

And it'll be a noon or 1p office closure anyways I'm sure.

ABC news and the great Ginger Zee were acting as if the world was going to end. A highlight they said it was snowing in Denver. You don’t say?

Be sure to drive a lightly-loaded box truck, or affix a sheet of plywood sanding on edge to the roof of your car.

Just don't tell us it's for an Irish Dance festival...
