Ugh! For the 2nd time in four days, we get rain at night before the snow comes & freezes everything, covering it in ice. My sidewalk was just cleared off & I was starting to see spots of open concrete on my driveway. Gotta love January weather in Wyoming… – Stevo ---

Right… but that kind of weather lasts about a month out there right? Here in Northern IL, we have that for 5 solid months. 😕 On 1/26/2012 8:51 AM, Stevo wrote:[color=blue] > Ugh!

Sunday we had rain, even thunderstorms Sunday night, and by Monday almost all the snow was gone. Then by Monday night super cold temps and high winds froze all the standing water from the melted snow. That’s pretty messed up. – Does this washcloth smell like chloroform? ---

Yep, out here in the burbs we have more ice on the ground than snow. Good times.

unsigned sounds like they ‘said’: [color=blue] > Right… but that kind of weather lasts about a month out there right?[/color] So my response to unsigned’s comment is… Ok, so we don’t have as much of that type weather, it still hoovers, no? btw, it rained about 3 solid hours last sat night, w/ temps right about 33-35. Weird how it can rain at that temp. – Stevo ---

Last week they predicted freezing rain and it just rained. A few days back they predicted a massive ice storm and it arrived a few hours late and the temps were already in the 40s. Today it is 50F and raining. Not too bad for late January. ---

The snow & cold don’t bother me that much, it’s that freezing rain crap and of course the wind…ugh 🙂 – Stevo
