Heh. The local news stations must have played this video a hundred times over the last couple of days.

I work just a few blocks downwind of that intersection. The angle of the camera doesn't do justice to the incline of that hill, but yah, there are some places that you just don't go in the slippery snow.

Though I've only had a little time to skim this thread, it's safe to say I have you all beat freezing-wise. When we got into the Salt Lake City area, it was a balmy 22-degrees out during the heat of the day. The next day, the thermometer topped out at around 20. Mind you, that's the temperature for about an hour. It's amazing to see the locals complaining about how cold it is. Oh, and don't get me started on "Wind Chill Factor."

I don't even know how I lived in Michigan all those years.

Yeah, but SNOW in WESTWOOD?!?!? Sea-level Westwood in Los Angeles, California??? WTF?


Apocalypse Soon, anyone?

I feel sorry for all the 'snowbirds' from our area.:D


We got more snow today- couldn't get up our hill, so I had to go around and take a more gradual incline, which I barely made.

I hate winter.

In 1989, a temperature of -8 F was recorded in Canoga Park. This year's downright balmy.

Temperature is one thing. Snow is another.

Canoga Park has elevation. Westwood is at sea level.

My windshield has not caused me any problems this week. It is just way to dry here for the ice to form. Instead, I am getting a bunch of little tiny crystals. They almost look like snow flakes, until you realize that you are in Bakersfield and it hasn't snowed in 8 years.

I just showed Nick all of the ice driving videos, to educate him on why ice in the road can be so dangerous.

Excuse me, but where is Canoga Park again? ;)

We put our car in the garage, so we've not had to scrape this year.

I love garages!
