We're expecting the storm to hit late Tuesday/early Wednesday. It's going to screw up travel on the east coast. SO's son and DIL are scheduled to fly up Wed. night. I hope they are not delayed too long.

There have already been lots of canceled flights that need to be rebooked. I'm glad we're not going anywhere this year.
We had a drivers' ed. class in high school. Complete with a huge blacktopped course and about a dozen cars. It was somebody's brainstorm that they haven't done in a long time.
I had my license already, so I could drive on the streets with the instructor and a back seat full of kids.
That big paved area was popular for a lot of things, including donuts in the winter. Not the kind of donuts we always picked up with the one instructor.

That'll work. This area was dark with no light poles though. And it sat up above the two roads bordering it. It was perfect. Nobody knew you were up there unless you had your headlights on and no fear of hitting anyting unless you got stupid.
Winters of days gone by...
I looked at the radar and it looks like Carol is getting the bulk of that snow. Nothing up here on the lake... yet.
Most winters, after the first good snowfall, I drive over to the mall after they close. They have a really big parking lot. I practice winter maneuvers. There are usually other people there doing that too, but there is plenty of room.

Sunny, the temp steadily dropped, and the wind picked up. 18°F here along the river.
Not so cold, 2 C (36 F), feels like -2 C (28 F) and it's snowing. We are expecting 15-25 cm (6"-10") of the white stuff. I think I'll avoid driving tomorrow. Every year some people forget how to drive on snow, and it's not fun driving with them on the road. We sometimes get people who panic and just leave their car in the middle of the road.

The car windows are looking pretty frosty out there this morning & the cats don't even want to be out for more than a few minutes....it must be cold!

We are around 30 degrees this morning. We had 4 inches of snow when we got up yesterday then it rained all day. We were supposed to get another 3-5 inches but we only got about an inch overnight. I don't know if there is more snow coming or not.
22°F...no snow.

Andy, not being a driver, I once asked a friend what was the difference between front wheel drive and rear wheel drive. His answer was very educational.
"If you had an elastic and was climbing a mountain, which would you rather do? Push the elastic up the mountain, or pull it up." I understood immediately.

Our temps are in the 50's. But it is raining really hard.
Now it's 19°F...time for temperature inversion....

When I got up around 6 am, it was 68 degrees; now it's 45. Been raining most of the morning and it's supposed to continue raining most of the day. The temperature will continue to drop and we might have some snow this evening. Time to get my baking going.
Yeah, that snow is very wet and heavy. The 12 cm (~5") that the Weather Network says we got looks more like 7 or 8 cm (~3"), since it has been packing down and melting. It's been above freezing by 1 degree C since 02h00 (AM).
