oooh first commute of the am!
wife woke me 4am, sister-in-law is having her baby, so wife leaves to go help out.

So I come into work early. it snowed about an inch last night; bridges are icy. pretty spooky in places. Weather is awesome, 30f and still. new Schwalbe Marathons kept me upright thus far - glad i have a little bit of tread pattern to hold onto the snow.

you northerners will laugh, but these icy roads are getting old! they don't plow or spread salt, just spread some sand on it & go home. doesn't do much, and they're bout out of sand! this is the 3rd or 4th time this winter already, the local authorities are not used to dealing with winter weather, and local residents (self included) are not able to drive in it
