Default Snow!

So my area just got it's 1st taste of snow this season...and of course its the dangerous snow, not the pretty snow. It was just enough to make the roads wet, then leave a pretty white dusting, then freeze. Four of our major highways/roadways are shut down.

Normally, this wouldnt be an issue for me since i have no school or job at the present time. BUT! Tomorrow I do have an interview near the Capital city which is about 45 minutes North...on one of those 4 major highways. The high tomorrow is only supposed to be 23 and it's supposed to continue snowing overnight.

Unfortunately, I have a feeling I'll be rescheduling that interview

/pointless rambling. h:

My neighborhood doesnt have sidewalks...so our mail man has to venture out by foot on these roads tomorrow. I heard the trucks going by twice i think, laying salt..so maybe they wont be so bad tomorrow...but the fact that the temp isnt supposed to get above 23 makes me nervous.

the sun will help big time. unfortunately, half the roads here are densely covered by trees.

i remember one time i was going to go to school after a big storm, and i saw my road was clear, so i figured i was safe. i pull up to the next road (the one at the stop sign mandi) and yeah, it was completely covered in snow.
