Plunged into the 60's? it was in the 60's here yesterday in edmonton alberta and we broke temp records for this time of the year, we dont even have snow yet. apparently thats changing this weekend though.
 
Driving from Pittsburgh to Erie PA tomorrow, right into the teeth of a snowstorm. Admittedly the wife's Blizzak-equipped Taurus wagon goes through the stuff pretty good, but they're calling for 6" to 8" of snow so I'd rather try to stuff us and two greyhounds into the Trac.

Wish me luck! Happy T'giving everybody!!! :cool:
 
Good luck! Make sure you have a winter survival kit with you. Stay safe.

ChrisT, I hear you. I have a few friends driving up to northern Wisconsin and the U.P. of Michigan, and they're calling for the possibility of several feet of snow there. Could be a VERY interesting travel weekend...

I'll be landing back at home at about 6PM on Turkey Day. Left overs will have to do for me...

My sister-in-law called this morning and said the visibility was awful and suggested we stay home. We'll hit my friend's restaurant for dinner and watch football. Traction doesn't do a lot of good when you can't see. Been there, done that. Have a great holiday everybody!
