Okay, 7...my reaction was a bit different from your reaction. What was up with the weatherman this morning?!!! He was talking about light rain passing through the area. Did he not realize that there was sleet coming down?? When I walked the dog at 5:45, light sleet was falling. And I thought - oh, what the heck...this isn't bad. About 20 minutes into my commute, the sleet was coming down so hard and so fast - it was accumlating on the trail. And the visibility was zero! I couldn't see where I was going and my face and eyes were being pelted by the sleet. It hurt! My co-workers think that I was crying because my eyes are still red. But okay...it was kind of fun.
I was checking out rain gear last night on TE. Time to buy some rain pants for days like this!
