Snow today, freezing rain tonight, rain by noon tomorrow. Then probably refreezing into a solid mess of dirty "snice" that will take weeks to melt!

north of Claudia, near St. Louis. It's been sort of sleeting all day, now it looks like a fine snow. Not looking forward to the drive home! My commute normally takes 1.25-1.5 hours on a good day, it was longer than that this morning. I did come in later than normal, waiting for daylight before setting out. We were all hoping for the site to close for the day, but no luck.
My bikes are hanging up, I need to clean them since it's been a little while and the mountain bike has been out on the trails a couple of times last week.

I didn't ride todayWay too much snow and ice for my bike. But probably better here than down in Belle and Rolla. I was driving in from Jefferson City last night. It was fine until I hit Wentzville and then 70 turned into a big mess.
But tomorrow is going to be better and the weekend is looking downright warm again!

Makbike hasn't been posting much lately, but anyone know if she's okay? Western Kentucky got hit pretty hard too.

Well, the mess you guys had yesterday is now in New England. It's snowing, but is supposed to end up in sleety rain, maybe ice north of here. I live just on the edge of the area that might get ice. Thankfully, I don't have classes today, because Lesley University is the only one in greater Boston that didn't cancel classes! I think, probably because the Cambridge schools are open and they follow their lead.
I hope the rain/ice doesn't ruin the snow because I am planning to x country ski on Friday and Saturday.
Stay warm, everyone.
UGH!! They didn't close schools and DH made it in okay so I thought it would be fine. But the roads I take had several ice spots and it was a stressful drive in. My car is front wheel drive and I shock myself by being a very capable driver on icy roads. Made it to work tired but in one piece. Saw two trucks (the pickup kind) fishtail and spin in front of me. A car in a ditch with a perplexed tow truck driver trying to figure out how to remove it. About 6 smaller town fire trucks running to and fro. A five car pile up that shut down the entrance to the toll road, probably for the best since it would be icy anyway. Another minor fender bender and one nasty multi car pile up for good measure before getting safely to the office. It should warm up and thaw before the afternoon.
Lesson learned, if the schools immediately west are delayed I am working from home. Too RISKY! Stay safe out there ladies.
