Supposed to take my kid to the dentist this morning, pretty sure it's not happening.

School went from a planned 2 hour late start for conferences to canceling conferences but keeping the late start to now a ~~snow day~~ flex learning day.

My dog has shorter legs so he struggled getting back up the steps after going outside to run around in the snow.

Since we're going to cancel the dentist appointment and there's no school, I can take my time clearing off the driveway and making a spot for the kids to stand at the bus stop across the street.

It's so bad right now that Metro Transit has suspended all bus service due to the road conditions.

If you're not someone who is absolutely essential, didn't drive in this shit.

Up here in the norf woods it's 25 and dry until maybe next week Wednesday. My driveway and yard is pretty much an ice rink though. You could fall and throw a hip if you aren't careful.

Are you expecting an ice rink road condition? Cause that shit is the absolute worst.

My personal favorite is a few inches of wet snow, then warming enough for the melt to turn all depressions into little lakes while storm drains are packed with snow, then a hard freeze to plate just everything in ice. That thick base layer of ice promises to just ruin everything for a while.
