Winter in Louisiana, everybody.

ATTENTION WEATHER:
If you are warm enough at dawn for me to leave the house in flip-flops, you should not be SLEETING by the time I get off work.
THIS BEHAVIOR IS UNACCEPTABLE!
You have been warned.
ETA: Why does no one ever listen to me. SNOW! WTF!
There was snow on my windshield, but I still had to turn on the AC because it was hot in my car. WUT. Also, no one here knows how to drive when there's ice on the roads, so I passed two major accidents on my way back into town this morning, and was stopped twice by deputies or police who wanted to warn me that there was ice on a bridge I was trying to cross, and actually *rerouted* away from a 100 foot long section of raised road by another cop, even when I tried to tell him "But I live *RIGHT THERE!* I'll drive really slow! I swear my tires are good!" I had to go a mile and a half out of my way, and use *service roads*. I am terrified of service roads.
