Yep, weather in TX sux too. I've got about the same here in far North TX, with high winds. Glad I got a ride in over the weekend. With my hills out here, I'm not going anywhere until the streets thaw.
Everyone be careful out there. News said the semi's are piling up just south of here. Just about untangled 2 of them when another one came along and joined the mix. Not many cars moving. One of my cousins tried to get to work, and her car is in the ditch on 80 out around Terrel.

The thing about our weather in Texas is, if you don't like it, wait a few days and it will be different. Last Saturday - nearly 80 degrees. Sunday - 60 degrees and both were great riding days. Our meeting here is on the 10th and the prediction is sunny and 60 degrees again.
But it shur is cold right now!!!!!

Dropping like a stone here... they're saying mid teens and windy... very windy!
It's not the lows that are really out of the ordinary... it's that they are expected to last.
S'all good!
S'all good!

Well, I bundled up and rode to work! Plan to tomorrow, too, unless the roads get icy. Glad it's only 6.6 miles! :-)
Yee-ha!

Where have you been? Maybe it's me but I haven't seen you post in a while. We have a little over an 1/2" ice covered with about 1" snow on our roads. Didn't ride the bike to work today Maybe in the morning  wrong. Drove around all day starting at 5:30 this morning and it has been interesting all day. Pulled 3 cars out of the ditch and directed traffic on hiway 6 in Dublin all before 8am. |
