Parts of the UK have also had the first snowfall of the winter and guess what,everything grinds to a halt!Trains in the channel tunnel failed because they were leaving France in temperatures around zero celsius and entering the tunnel where temperatures were over 20 degrees celsius!Geez,the design engineers must have come from another planet!They did not know how to protect electrical systems from condensation!
I'm glad that they don't work for Boeing!

That snow storm is headed north east and we are right in its path. Blizzard Warnings for RI and MA tonight.
Sounds to me like a good opportunity hide the ride in the garage and do a little polishing and waxing over the next few days.
The worse part of any snow storm for the car is not the actual snow, but the chemical road salt that the state and cities use on the streets. It just eats the heck
out any car finish.
Now where's my shovel ?
