Not sure how much but it sounds pretty bad. My brother in law works for UPS and said they are shut down, 1st time in 12 years. DFW airport is closed also

I could use a good hot dog right now!

Nothing in my desk, it doesn't last long enough to get in a drawer.

roads were barely driveable this morning, took it about 15 mph all the way to work, took about 40 minutes to get here, saw a new tundra fighting for traction up hill on the ice

I prepped my truck for the ice by swapping all but one of my 20s off the truck, and then i put them in the rear for added traction.

Weighed one of the 20s while i had them off the truck, was shocked. I knew they were heavy but didnt know they were that heavy

We got about 2 or 3" of sleet with ice under it, and its been snow flurries all day....

It was 18* this morning on my way to work, and its been dropping, not sure exactly how cold it is outside now. Its about 55* in the shop.

And of course im still in shorts :o
