What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

SNOW!!!! We got some snow down here in the South today! We were expecting 2-3 inches so I got the K-20 ready to drive to work for night shift. I woke up and we only had a dusting. My wife and kids did this "artwork" on my windshield! It's supposed to get down to 8 degrees over the weekend!

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

We are said to have a 30% chance of snow here... In Florida of all places... It hurts my face just to walk outside right now.

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

It's winter for sure.
The temp is exactly zero Fahrenheit in Kansas City right now. We have about a foot and a half of snow on the ground. On up north it's much colder.

I don't know why I found this funny but I did. It is -29*F here right now and it doesn't feel to bad since there is no wind. It is sunny enough to melt some snow off the garage roof.

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

Holy crap it's cold out. Weatherchannel say 21 but feels like 6 I need to finish my leather bucket seat install in my S10 so I can drive it again. I kicked the 67 out of the garage, put the s10 in and put a heater out there. I may try again in an hour

So... who drew all the hearts on the hood?

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

We've got 4 or 5 inches here on the ground. Played yesterday with the fourwheeler and an innertube. Got up this morning to around 7 degrees and wind. Just about too cold for fun. Still gotta chop ice for the livestock to drink though.

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

You guys are making me feel bad....it's already up to 19, here. Wind chill is way less, but I've seen colder and windier. Didn't like it then, either. At least the streets are clear. Don't make it any warmer.

Stay warm now, y'hear?

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

I don't see how you guys up north do it!! It has not been above freezing for 3 days now and it's not expected to until next week. People freak out down here on the very mention of snow. They predicted 2-3 inches and the grocery stores got raided - you guessed it, bread and milk. With the light dusting they have closed schools for 2 days. OK Northerners, you can stop laughing now!!

That is funny. I don't think people raid the grocery store when they predict 18" of snow. When they predict lots of snow all I think about is how much fun it will be to go bust some snow drifts with the duramax. Here is a pic of a picture of a pickup in my back yard. The snow was knee deep just walking to it.

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

you people from the north can laugh now, but when it hits 110* with 100% humidity, we'll see who's laughing...well, no one really, but that's what we're used to in the south, not this cold sh*t.

Yeah luckily for us we get that crap too so I will laugh hard at you right now! We don't have sweet beaches to compensate for it.

Re: What is all this white stuff on my truck!!!

last night I fired up my '72 k10 to do a little snow plowing. It was hovering right around -27 . I plowed for about 20 minutes before my temp gauge moved off of Cold.
