Who else is getting screwed by mother nature?

It was 65* in Chicago on Wednesday. Tonight through Friday we're going to get 6-10" of snow. WTF? Right now it's freezing rain and sleeting with some snow mixed in. Snow is suppsed to come in late tonight and get real bad between 6a.m. and noon. Good thing I don't have class tomorrow. Anyone else in the Midwest getting screwed by this?

Hey so someone else in the Midwest is getting screwed too. That makes me feel better lol. Was it warm the last few days too? It's winter days like these that make me glad I put my T-bird away Nov 1. for the winter :grinno:

Sucks here in SW Mo also. Got about an inch of sleet. Then it started to snow. Brought the bird home at lunch and took the jeep back.

Yay!  The sun is shining and the wind isn't blowing too bad.  But I'm just next in line I guess.  So far I'm further East than any of you.

We had an assload of rain the past couple days, and now the wind is ripping around outside and it's getting colder.  A couple flakes, but nothing major here. Supposed to be sunny and 40* F tomorrow.

threads alittle bit old, but I got the same storm rolling through my area a day or two ago. I was working about an hour drive away and it got to a wind chill of 6 degree's below zero and it took me 4 hours to get home. That was a fun night. I hate working all night:(

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
