For those of you playing the home game, the current tally of accidents on San Diego freeways during today's rain showers is currently at 115. Not too bad considering half the city left town on Friday for the holidays.

I'm finding this news story oddly entertaining:

Gridlock tonight at Crossgates Mall has caused some vehicles to be stuck in traffic for up to three hours.

Guilderland Police said traffic is not moving in any direction as shoppers try to make up for lost time after losing a day to recent snow storms. Officers are on the scene trying to clear roads, but vehicles are stuck bumper-to-bumper with no room to move.

Oh, the humanity.

Warmth follows me wherever I go. Every time I try to head to somewhere that should be a guaranteed lock for a deep-freeze, they have a freak warm-snap that keeps it above freezing.

Freak warm front (Chinook Winds) drove temps into the mid-40s, when it had been at zero or below for much of the preceding weeks.

Went to Saskatoon for Thanksgiving, and it hovered near (or slightly above) freezing most of the time. Locals told me "Oh, you shoulda been here last year this time. It was good an' cold, doncha know" :rolleyes:

After having been in the deep freeze for weeks, it looks like my arrival in BTV will coincide with temps heading north of freezing, with rain forecast (high of 39) for the day after my arrival.

This is getting old. People in the frozen portions of the country should pay my travel expenses in the winter. I'm willing to travel to your Godforsaken igloos on the off chance it will be frosty with a chance of white stuff.

Have you considered Chile? Maybe you have your polarity reversed and need to go below the equator. :D:D:p

So if you and I travelled together; most likely the temps would remain constant :D

I'm pretty sure that's my problem since many street lamps seem to shut off when I walk/drive by.:eek:

Unstoppable force meets immovable object. We could really mess with the heads of people in locales that usually experience volatile weather.
