You can't really deal with anything that isn't San Diego.
Global warming will change that anyway, it didn't snow in Vermont until last weekend.

morning commute was okay at 540 this morning, just everyone going damn 45mph when the roads were just more or less wet.
fuckers in the left lane going 30 should die.

Backroads were a mess this AM, looks like they made 1 pass w/ the plow and not a lick of salt, had to take to the ditch to make it up 1 hill, nice sheet of ice all over the roads, once I got to the primary's it was clear sailing, had to pass a few slow pokes though, the cop I meet head on didn't seem to like that though, but I was going ~60 and he was going ~30 so I don't think he wanted a chase.

driving yesterday was fun. i tried taking a side road that was completely covered in snow....not such a good idea. I turned around when a good bystander told me people were stuck in a valley.
Blizzak's FTW! Even with little tread these badboys did a nice job in the unplowed/unsalted disaster that was Nova. I don't think a lot of people (including VDOT) thought it would be this bad, but with the really cold temps before this hit, i'm not really surprised. oh yeah, MD roads are MUCH better than VA roads, they definitely got hit a lot softer than VA did. This morning the side roads in the rockville/bethesda area were fine (normal driving conditions). However in the side roads near my house....Integra Snow Rallye Drift!!!11!!

Commute today was painless, fwiw, but breaking the layer of ice on my car this morning was not especially enjoyable.
