[ARC5] WX Report

[Todd, KA1KAQ]

I'm just north of Raleigh, Mike. Roads cleared here pretty well the last
couple of days. Being from the north, I knew to get out there after the
first snow/ice storm and clean the driveway the next morning so the sun
could do its thing. Jen's school was out Mon-Tues for President's Day and
she's had to close for the rest of the week because the parking lot is a
skating rink thanks to a facilities crew who did zero prep work stayed home
until it was too late.

2 degrees above zero here in NC last night, Chris. Reminds me of back home.
This is our 3rd or 4th winter in a row with below normal/average temps.
Algore is such a tease!
