Freezing rain in the area is putting down a nice layer of ice. If you have to be out and about, be extremely careful. I feel for the people who are out in this mess overnight. I would imagine that rush hour in the morning will be crazy as well. Be safe.

77 mpg, that's some good mileage. You must drive one of those "Smart Cars."

Hi everyone, the valley of the sun had a tornado warning today and actually it came across the news about and hour and a half ago that a tornado touched down at Desert Ridge Market Place Mall in north Phoenix. That report was a false alarm, high winds and heavy rain did bring down large trees in the area. But the weather service is now saying no tornado touched down.
At Scottsdale Road & the 101 tents from a smaller car auction than the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction were blown apart and blown onto the 101. The highway will be closed until some time in the morning to clean up all of the debris. Luckily I haven't heard of anyone being hurt at this venue however hundreds of cars suffered damage from all the debris.
I17 in northern Arizona was closed most of yesterday and today due to heavy snow, as you get closer to Phoenix the highway is again closed at New River because the mountain is washing down onto the highway.
Good thing the USAC teams and fans aren't headed to Arizona for another month, maybe we will have dried out by then. Right now they are saying we are getting our years supply of rain all at once. An the north country will get about 70 plus inches of snow this week.
Hope everyone stays safe this winter whatever part of the country you are in.

Nice and sunny here, and I am going to play golf in the morning.
