    Holy crap it's cold!

    Wow, yesterday it got down in to the teens here in Washington. This cold front came out of left field, yesterday the driving conditions were so bad I drove by 2 busses that were jackknifed sideways on the freeway smashed in to the guard wall and dozens of cars in ditches and sliding the wrong way down roads. Keep in mind that only about 1/4th of a inch of snow fell but it quickly compacted in to the worst ice I've ever driven on. Is anyone else currently experiencing these types of conditions in their home town? Also the thing that really sucked is that they did not sand the roads until today. it took them 48 hours to mobilize trucks to start sanding the roads, we were not prepared for this at all.
