Yesterday we had the white out for about 2 hours in the evening... right at rush hour! And then schools were cancelled for today by about 8p last night. The roads didn't look too bad, but then I saw that we had at least one salt truck slide off the road after hitting a patch of ice. Then I was glad that I decided to stay home from work today... of course, now the kids are driving me nuts... being good, just a bit nutty!
