    This is why I hate Georgia!

    Every damn year it'll be 20 F*in degrees for two weeks, then snow a little (if even), and immediately warm up enough to rain and melt it! W-T-F?! Either give me something to play in or stay above freezing! F U Winter and F U Georgia!!!! Last time we had real snow was in March around '92 or so... THAT was a good snow! Either do that again or nothing at all. Don't freeze my balls off then warm up and rain!!! :eek:


    That is all.

    I'll take Ice...it is sleeting really good at my house and the temp should get below freezing soon if not already. Maybe the last week of sub-feezing temps will allow it to stick to the pavement.
    I am going to stay positive cause I am off tomorrow!

    Yeah, I just want ice. Enough ice to keep me away from the office and planted at home, working on depleting my gigantic supply of vodka. Gotta make some room in the fridge…

    Its already below freezing here at my house. I am north of Cartersville and my road and all the roads leading to my house are white. It was still snowing when I got home about 15 mins ago. It was light but still falling.

    Yeah, I would have warmer clothes and snow tires if I lived up there.

    We can complain because this is not normal for the area in which we live. :)

    Seems to be snowing plenty here in Kirkwood, but remember people, it all about ice. Ice will close the roads and keep us from having to go to work.

    EAV side of things is pretty iced over as well. Had fun sliding the suby sideways up glenwood on my way home.

    Alex, if its still iced over in the morning me and Joel were going to get together to tear up something in east atlanta if you want in. I guess I could invite the Derf too since he's right around the corner, I just dont have his number.

    Side roads are pretty slick this morning. Highways seem to be fine. Lots of accidents already. Had to get gas this morning. 3 accidents in front of the station while I was filling the tank. Be careful everybody. AWD doesn't mean shit when there is ice on the ground.

    Perfect. The hill in front of my house is ice so the cars trying to climb it are ending up trenching my yard. Fantastic.

    I tried to take the 92x out I figured I test out the all seasons I got to the end of my street is was all ice and I started to slide when I got off the gas. I found the safest place to U turn and I went back home screw that its bad out there. How did I drive in the crap when I was in Wisconsin for 2 yrs?

    So many wrecks just in my neighborhood.

    The hills at both entrances are covered in ice and the turns at the bottom of the hills are just eating up the cars.

    It wasn't that bad around my house. The roads were snow covered but I guess the lack of traffic didn't pack it down to cause the really bad ice. It maybe worse tomorrow than it was this morning now that the snow has been packed down.

    Grant Park to Kennesaw was fun. Interstates fine ('cept for the bit near 17th st). Grant Park was a skating rink. But not as bad as Old 41 near Kenn Mtn.

    Terrified idiots everywhere. 'See ice - BRAKE!!'

    About to leave. I wonder how that will go?

    I like seat heaters :)

    Drove to publix earlier around 5pm, which is just under a mile from my house, and the roads were hella iced over. We had to take an alternate route back home due to idiots driving too fast down the iced roads and spinning off into the trees.

    I am glad today is Friday and we were able to pick up enough food to last through the weekend.

    I was pleasantly surprised that Publix wasn't a mad house, and there was still plenty of food on the shelves.

    Checked Facebook a little bit ago, and found that several of my friends messed up their cars trying to drive places.

    Gotta love how the Forrester just owns it in that video. My mom went all over the place yesterday in her Outback and was fine but then again she knows not to brake on ice and has driven during blizzard conditions in Wisconsin.

    But yet you're still doing the same thing we're doing, which is waste time on the computer. :clap:
