Try -18. Truck started but didn’t want to move....
Right there with you. It is back to the school bus tomorrow unless they call it for the cold. It has been in the negative teens for most of the week. We shall see if they want to start or stay running!

Haha, here if there is ice, an inch of snow, we shut everything down. No equipment for ice and snow. It would make me extremely nervous to drive a school bus over bad roads! Carol you are BRAVE!

having just spent a while reading through this thread... i hope i don't offend by asking if you are of Irish heritage? you look a lot like my best friend of years past (who's gone on to riding bike trips in the sky).

Ice shuts us down as well. 1” of snow, we hate. Not enough to play in. 6”, can go sledding down hill.
