man, those bright led headlights are blinding, i just parked in front of a glass store driving up to it, and my own headlights were blinding the shit outta me.

i'm sure both my cars have the worst blinding headlights cuz i chose the most powerful lumens

also don't be a dick shoveling snow, or else

And the snow just started again. This may be more snow in the last 3 weeks than we had all last year.

Originally, the polar vortex cold front was to hit DC on Monday, then Wednesday, then Friday. Now it's simply "colder" heading into next weekend and the Thursday snowstorm morphed into nothing but rain.

Forecasters suck.

-35 Celsius tonight in Calgary. That is NOT with windchill.

Coldest day I ever encountered was -47 Celsius around Provost, Alberta while I was a field operator in Feb 1995. All the standard thermometers didn't work anymore because all the fluid ended up in the bulb - one was reading +30 that afternoon.

if you're gonna get snow, then it might as well be a good few inches at least. "light dusting" scares the shit out of me. you know there is ice under it and you wont see it til its too late.

You all are fucking crazy. I'm moving from California to Florida. Screw the cold.

I don't miss snow, and I really don't miss ice.

So there I was fooling around on the computer a few months back and found a backdoor gui into the Pentagons unix security system. Why not, ya know? Just take a few peeks and leave a note saying its all good and be happy that I dont use my powers for evil. I figure out the flight lists for the closest airbase and pop my name in there as a pilot for those little Boeing F-22 Raptors. I print out a security bag on my home computer and head over to the base to take a little joy ride in the taxpayer planes. Blah blah welcome back sir, the plane is fueled and ready for your mission. Thank you Private, I say to the gate guard. A nice little kid, I promoted him to Captain.

Jet turbine engine starts up and I punch up where I want to get lunch and go through the checklist. Its this little gyro stand and they always had the best taziki sauce. Nice and easy burn up to 180mph and I pull the stick down towards my gigantic balls and pull like 19 g's going straight up. Reach a nice cruising altitude and level the ol gal off....BOOM

An emergency broadcast comes over the radio and the tower calls to see if I can assist with something, its a skyking situation and I am the only one that can do it.

Alas, we need you to land that plane and help with a medical emergency. 10-4 Skeeter I squawk back. I land the Boeing F-22 Raptor in a soybean field and my eyes focus on the tent with dozens of secret service agents. With my sun visor still down I cant really see who it it... its Alan Alda and he is having heart problems. I ask for 2 shots of whiskey, 1 to clean the area and 1 for the doctor of course.

Everyone flinches their head away as I crack open Mr. Aldas rib cage, I of course stand as a rock and wont let anoyher national treasure die on my god damned watch. It took just a few seconds of heart massaging to know that he will make it. The entire room just starts the loudest clapping and cheering ive ever heard and 3 single goosebumps lift on my arm. I pop my sunvisor down and start the walk back to the plane..... I get grabbed on the shoulder...

Alas, we know you arent who you say you are but we will let it go just for today. Thank you for saving Alans life... no problem Mr President, I respond.

Best fucking gyro of my life. Ohh wait, this was actually Sadre Spinegnawer Sadre Spinegnawer Sadre Spinegnawer Sadre Spinegnawer ...

Forecast here has 22F later in the week with 60% chance of heavy rain. LOL. The problem here is never snow. It's ice. Get rain and it collects on the trees and drips off on the road as the road freezes especially on elevated parts, some shorter than a car. Same with the big bridges the rain drips off the bridge and freezes on the road.

Agree about cold in Alberta. Went on a deer hunt there in 1992. JFC it was cold. The outfitter had heavy ass suits that helped. Going out he said "now if you have to unzip to take a leak do it on the side of the tree the wind is not blowing, or you'll die" lol.

Forecast of a low of 15 on the gulf coast Monday. East, TX and up into Dallas well into the single digits for Monday. Buy your plumber stock now.

DFW had a super low forecast of rain today. Didn't matter apparently. Massive wreck just before daylight on the backside of a small rise. The ice nobody could see or expect. 100+ vehicles. All it took was one to get started. Guess they had a giant one in Fort Worth and another smaller one in Dallas both on 35. Talked to a friend that lives near there and they said the company said just stay home today.

Have low forecast in the 20's the next few days with high chance of rain. That should be fun once it starts dripping off the trees, overpasses and structures on the road.

It was neg 5 yesterday evening. I'm getting so used to it that before I looked at the temp I told my kid that it felt warm out. Wim Hof got nothing on me.
