It's been freezing here for two days solid. Now it's raining. The rain is at this moment converting to a sheet of ice on the overpasses. It is to be hoped that the State and City will be rolling sand trucks, but the News just said there are currently 20 wrecks in the Austin metropolitan area. That's a big number for rush hour -and it's the middle of the night. FOUR wrecks just on the upper decks of IH-35 which is on a few miles of elevated roadway.
Don't go anywhere. I plan on calling WM tomorrow to confirm, but it won't surprise me if they wave us off until the streets have a chance to thaw.
There was sleet on our back patio a while back, 1/8" to 1/4" balls of ice that melted on the relatively warm concrete. On the way home, snow was blowing around between the cars on the roadway. It cold outside!
