Default DFW is getting rocked right now.

I have never seen freezing rain, tons of snow falling and lightning at the same time...ever. Had to drive home from work and get some clothes and turn around and come back. Lucky for me we get put up in some wicked hotel suites!

If you were wondering, its not that bad out right now, but if it keeps up, it will suck ***** to drive in.

Wow yes my back yard is frozen I couldn't even open it without some muscle. I hate to see anyone drive in this…winter advisory literally says travel is treacherous.

Be careful as **** if you have to go anywhere.

I am in GP right now! Its f*cking bad... i tried to leave for work in the morning, coundnt even get in the door cuz of ice. I tried to leave now 1140pm, couldnt get Camaro to back up. Road is just a solid piece of ice.
I guess its not as bad if you got 4x4 or at least a truck that sat in garage all night! My Camaro is freazing her *** and doesnt wanna drive nowhere. T/A is deff. not leaving garage any time soon)))
B careful everyone! Dont drive if you dont have to..

For srs, It's nice in Austin right now, albeit very cold and windy. I'm hoping for some bad weather like that so I can claim "snow day" LOL!

yes im in desoto off of 35 and 20 and there is like 13-15 semis jack knifed earlier on the highway just in less than a mile? its not really clearing up because the ice isnt melting and whatever salt they are putting down just melts the ice then it refreezes in a matter of a couple hours.
