Winter 2014/15

[AWvsCBsteeeerike3]

We thought about coming up 55, but the problem was there wasn't anyway to get back to Little Rock that looked clear. 40 is notoriously terrible after bad weather, and google maps seemed to show it as terrible Monday afternoon, so I didn't want to head all the way up to Memphis which is out of the way anyway then over on a clustered, semi infested interstate.

The storm was passing through SE Arkansas/West Mississippi/West Tennessee and looked to be dumping snow/ice along the way. So, on Monday afternoon, I was worried about 55 in MS/TN, and the roads looked worse in south eastern Arkansas than in south central. So, we cut over to Baton Rouge then up 61/425. I still think that was the right decision. Added about 30 miles or so to the trip, but we got mostly all clear roads.

That front hit New Orleans yesterday I think and the temps were down in the 30s. It was crazy hitting it too. Once we got to Baton Rouge, it had dropped from 70 to 40, and by the time we got to I-20, it was about 32.

Anyway, glad you made it back alright. New Orleans is unlike any other place for Mardi Gras. Just...crazy. We ended up going to the Thoth and Bacchus parades off the western end of St. Charles (St. Charles and Napoleon, iirc). So, we weren't even in the quarter and it was still absolutely nuts. The amount of money the krewes must spend on those parades is nuts.

We were at 19 this morning. Supposed to stay cold today and tomorrow then get up to 65 Saturday then back down in the 30s Sunday. Weir.d

I would take that type of weird. We are getting to 65 too - but to do that you have to add up the next four days of forecast highs.

How people actually work out in this I can not imagine.

Here's how [expletive] up this winter is. It's 23 out and I said to myself "hey this isn't so bad." Yes it is, 23 is [expletive] cold, but it's been so damn cold recently 23 seems warm. That is [expletive] up. I told Michelle the other day when my Mom and Dad are gone I'm outta this place and going somewhere tropical. She can come along if she wants but I'm gone.

Surprise! What was 2 inches of snow forecast for tonight is now 8 inches of snow.

You got a lot more than we did in STL.

I have cuts on my hands that I can not explain. I think I just moved my finger and the skin split. This can't end soon enough.
