Took 10 mins to get my door open because it was iced shut. After warming up my car for 45 mins I finally decided to scape the ice off the windshield. My windshield wipers were iced to the windshield, and the washer fluid squirters were blocked. Not to mention the ice on my rotors and tires. Its looking to be even colder tomarro.

I remember that happen when i was in highschool, went to my truck to go out for lunch and had to stay there because by the time i got in and got the ice off the windows it was time to go back to class. This morning when i got up for class the windchill was -7 and i had to wait for the bus.

Nice, thats what the Chevelle has looked like for the past 8 hours. Doors and hood were a little tough to open. Everything has ice on it here, house, mailbox, cars, fence, trees, grass, etc. Had several large tree branches come down, one was about the size of my car.
