When that semi hit the white pickup and made it fly, I cringed. Scary.

I don’t know. They’re saying “several” inches of snow. I’ve already organized the golf cart races.

EDIT: Just checked the forecast and the humidity will be between 60 to 80%.

Sweet! Vids or it didn’t happen!

I feel sorry for those near the Great Lakes with this cold. Our cold is dry, which is hard on skin. But their cold is humid and seems like the cold soaks in and feels colder.

Definitely will video the races! Brian’s golf cart is fast but can he put the power to use? Will one of the other neighbors have their carts tuned for the weather? Will tires make the difference after a few laps?

That is gonna be brutal, Russ. As stated above, the humidity makes the cold go right to the bone. Been dry as a popcorn fart here, but it is still cold.

I have shortened up traction cables so they fit my golf cart tires. Unfair advantage? Pffffft.

Snow will be fun to play in, it will be gone soon enough.
