    I'm trying to convince myself that I really do want to go outside and clear off my car. It's only 23F right now with a wind chill of 13.

    Better to get it out of the way. With that sun beating down, it'll be a sheet of ice tomorrow morning if you don't clean it off today. DH cleaned our cars, walk ways, stoops, etc, this morning and he said it was light & fluffy.

    BTW, the plow has been through at least TWICE and put down chemicals/salt in its wake. The street is pretty much clear and is definitely passable. Remarkable, since our street is not even considered a secondary road on the county plow map.

    DH went out this morning and reported that the roads were in good shape (he was driving in Arlington and DC).

    Got a foot. It's beautiful. I swear, I'm going to get XC skis. I didn't think I would be able to use them in Richmond, but this is the third major snow we've had since I moved here. We had one huge snow last March, one in December, and now this one, and it's not even February yet. XC skiing today would be marvelous!

    I swear I wouldn't mind the snow if it didn't always have to come with 1/4"- 3/4" of ice first. *sigh*
    If it would just snow and then melt, it wouldn't be so bad. It's the neighborhoods that stay icy for weeks that drives me nuts (since they never plow/ice/sand neighborhood streets.

    All the schools are closed tomorrow and I'm supposed to have a job interview tomorrow. I'm definitely calling to make sure that it is still on before I venture out 20 miles on the ice...
