Just what we need...more freaking wind.

One thing I noticed last night after temps. dropped below freezing, the consistency of that sleet, freezing rain mixture on the ground changed. Yesterday during the afternoon you could walk on it not being slippy. Last night it turned to more of to pure smooth ice. Making it quite treacherous to even try to walk on.

33.6 was the high today.

Yep.

Maybe this storm was a precursor of things to come.

Still looks like strong winds Monday into later Tuesday.

30 here

I was just out using a spading shovel to chop through it making progress...but a very long way to go yet.

Crap is like cement. A plastic shovel doesn't stand a chance trying to clean up this crap.

Looks like a half inch of sleet on the ground here.
