Fin----You need a bigger dog to keep you warm in this kind of weather. Or three cats. Live ones.

I drove from Foley across the bay via the causeway to downtown Mobile in order to camp out at the hospital (work) for 24 hours. The roads in Foley were already a sheet of ice when I pulled out, had accumulated white stuff by the time I hit Robertsdale and causeway was an absolute mess. Snow/ice covering it from just west of Spanish Fort all the way to downtown with a semi jack-knifed at the Bankhead tunnel/I-10 on ramp. Lots of cars and trucks off the side of the road from 59 through I-10 just east of Malbis. Ya'll stay at home unless it is an absolute emergency and you have no other choice. The roads will get worse before they get better.

I feel bad for ya'all down there. At least up here we are kinda use to it, although it has got into the single digits up here, kinda rare to get that cold
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
