I hate to do this. Like, I never do this -
I'm having a hard time believing your temp. Just about everyone in this sub is in the 20s right now. I'm sitting at 27.5, which seems suspiciously colder than you in this type of setup. I'm wondering if you have a sensor issue.
Mix of freezing rain with a few pingers here in Landisville at my wife's family Christmas. Her entire family is oblivious to the weather. "Oh, we heard it's just going to be a little bit of freezing rain..."
We're leaving now.

Itstrainingtime's house: 5.6"
Mammoth Lakes, CA: 71"

He is still in full-on meltdown mode over models. He's posting completely out of character. And probably because it's changing so drastically in the direction he doesn't want it to go.
Yes! That was exactly how I felt as well, and I'm never ready for a warm up. But after days and days of driving on ice holes (gotta be careful that didn't autocorrect) I was ready for a reset and dry roads again.
