    I just talked to Grand Forks Nd , nothing yet .
    Like us outlaws always said , get while the gettings good , on paper logs , wont partake in current shenanigans.
    Wet roads here in Appleton sure to be a skating rink when the sun goes down.
    Watch your tire spray when it stops its time to park.

    Back before I put thermometers in my trucks, if I couldn't see spray, I would roll the window down occasionally and feel of the mirror bracket. It will freeze over before the road does, but I have seen rain freeze over in a matter of seconds too.

    I just spoke to my daughter and she said mostly rain today. It was above freezing most of the day from the weather reports I heard.

    I am due to deliver in Fargo, ND tomorrow at 1400.
    Not going to happen, it seems.
    Monday sometime if I'm lucky, if not Tuesday.
