Just went outside and conditions here are much worse than I initially thought. I'm at 10cm of new snow and because of the ice, it's frozen solid in our driveway. I managed to shovel off the front steps but it was a challenge. Haven't attempted the driveway. :lol:

We should always have a 2 week supply of essential items such as non-perishables and water. This region will erupt into a disorderly hell when a large scale disaster happens.

Should have done the driveway earlier... Did it at 6:30 and it was already getting heavy. :lol:

-0.5c and climbing rapidly, light breeze. It's losing the winter look as the trees go green. :( No precip besides what's falling off the trees.

We have more snow than ice I guess. Went to Poco this morning and driving is good.

Considering that 2014 Tundra will probably outlive us all, I'd say you made the right choice.
