The Great Ice Storm of 2007.......
After a full weekend of rain and what was to be "the worst ice storm in 15 years" according to the news, it was the last 1/4 inch of ice that has caused problems. Driving from McKinney to Plano was not that bad, if you drove cautiously. My windshieled had accumulated abot a 1/4 inch of ice overnight, so I took my tabletop salt grinder out and put a coating on the window which seemed to help. Only in the Dallas/Fort Worth area does the city come to a complete standstill when it is 33 degrees and raining. My favorite quote from the news? A passenger at DFW Airport saying "I dont really want to fly, I just dont know if these planes can operate in these arctic temperatures...". Happy MLK Day, and get back to work...its not that bad out there!

Where was this pic taken? Is this your car?
Yes, the city shuts down, so that's a good excuse for me to stay by the fire at home while working of course!
