It snowed again last night. All last night on the new, the weatherman were telling us that snow was coming.
And still, this morning as I drove to work, people seemed shocked to be driving in ice and snow. During my usually-five-minute drive to work, which lasted about 15 minutes, all I heard on the radio were traffic reports of wrecks and road closures.
I was a little surprised at how icy it was, but I'm from Oregon—I can drive in fog and rain just fine, but ice is a little tricky. I figured these Coloradans would have it down by now. Makes me a little nervous for big storms.
I realize I post a lot about the weather on here. But I love the weather. Especially extreme weather. I get so bored when it's sunny and 60 for weeks on end (like it has been here). Although I now know that I don't enjoy driving on icy roads, I am still looking forward to a winter full of exciting weather.

This is a mystery that also haunts Milwaukee drivers. I remember the same thing happening every year when I was growing up. People forget how to drive in the snow and ice. You just have to be as defensive a driver as you can and pray for mercy. Mom
