Brrrr.....

It got down to 28 degrees last night. When I was trying to eat my breakfast this morning at the computer, I could see my breath.

I was running late as it was, and I get out to my car and it is crusted with ice. And I don't have an ice scraper. So I had to wait about 6 minutes for the defroster to get going enough to melt the ice on my windshield.

I know some of you tougher/insane/stupid people live where it snows, but this is too much cold for me.

Spent 15 minutes scraping mine this morning. Was that awful kind of speckled hard-as-nails crystals that look a bit like down feathers frozen to your windows.

I hate this time of year.

(if you didn't know, in a pinch, a credit card or similar that you don't care much about makes a substitute ice scraper.)

"Tuesday: Winter storm conditions... Snow mixes with sleet and rain later today... strengthening east to southeast winds. 3 to 7 inches in the city... 7 to 12 inches in north sections.

"Wednesday: Snow and blowing snow with winds over 40 mph... temperatures falling into the teens later in the afternoon with accompanying single-digit wind chills."

We haven't gotten that kind of cold yet here in NJ.
