Apparently we got 7 inches in Chicago a few days ago. I'm crossing my fingers it and the other 8-10 inches of ice glacier are gone by the time I get home. I'm hoping the weather in Hawaii follows me home.

The cold followed my wife to Hawaii this summer.  While she was there with the kids, it was the only time in 2014 it went above 90 here.

Sorry Lou...more headed for the Windy City. We've got some kind of weather alert this morning...freezing rain or some shiznit.

I've got to go pick my Mountaineer up from the shop here in a bit, had an exhaust leak fixed, and got it safety inspected for a license plate renewal. Hopefully I won't have to se ice for 30 minutes just to drive 4 miles back home..

Yuck Fou...ice storm.

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.

I wouldn't go to Hawaii in the summer. I'd be missing out on actual nice days we have in Chicago. I've only really got from mid May to mid September to get good weather.

Ugh. I hate ice storms. Spring can't get here soon enough.

Our's all melted thanks to all the rain. But now we have flooding all over the place and the snow has started. It really coming down too! They're calling for 6 -10" and I think we'll get it.

One of the best things about living in the south, especially South Carolina... we might get a little snow every year.  Just a couple of weeks ago, the forecast was supposed to be 4-8" and one station calling for 5-10".  Basically, anytime there's even a hint of snow/ice/sleet/freezing rain, a lot of places close.  Schools here closed the day before it was supposed to hit and there wasn't anything on the ground and were closed one to two days after, following up with two hour delays in the days after those.  People go nuts here running to get the milk and bread.  I was hugely skeptical because we've been duped plenty of times before.  We might have gotten 3" in some places, but it wasn't what they called for originally, which I figured would happen.  Our governor, Nikki Haley, called for a state of emergency prior to the "snowmageddon".  SMH  I was really looking forward to seeing a big snow because I've lived here all of my life and haven't seen a really big one ever.  Whenever any threat of wintry precipitation hits, it's a given most everything will close or be on a two-hour delay.  Life is good here!

I was just in South Carolina last week, near Myrtle Beach. They were calling for a little freezing rain, and they said on TV "All county schools are closed", hehe. Up north they list them individually. It was weird to hear a place cancel them all at once.

We also went to "broadway at the beach" (a big outdoor shopping complex), and it was also entirely closed except for one restaurant. Wow, heh. I am from Ohio, and no stores ever close on account of the weather here.

You're not missing anything.  TRUST ME.
It gets old fast, especially when you're running out of places to shovel it off to/plow it.

More snow than forecasted and still coming down hard..... Supposed to go for a few more hours...

Flew out of Kona, HI at 6 pm Chicago time yesterday. It was about 80* when I left. Landed at O'Hare around 6 this morning (had a two hour layover at LAX). It was 7*. Bit of a shock to the system. Spring can't get here soon  enough....
