Nope... no more snow.... just freezing cold, temps in the single digits and will go below 0 through the night.

We get the same mess you do most of the time. It is not common for us to get the fluffy kind of snow since we are closer to the coastline. I laugh at your terms of gritting and lories. Must be the same as our salt trucks with spreaders and plows on them, LOL. They also mix sand in with the salt, I guess so if the salt isn't working because of temperatures, like you said, then the sand takes over.

And thanks to Canada, for what our weathermen call the Albert Clipper, that sends all these freezing temps to us, LOL.

We've had a bunch of snowy cold weather here too. I took a vid of Buddy playing in it. If I get a chance I'll upload it later. It's been record setting cold though and a lot of snow! They said yesterday that it's as cold in Grand Rapids Michigan as it is in Atlanta, GA. And there was only 5 degrees difference between Pensacola FL and someplace up in northern MI so I guess it's cold all over.

Yep, they even had a little snow in Florida..... they showed the orange crops with ice all over them. There goes the price of Orange Juice!!!!!
