It started raining around midnight last night although it was only 26 degrees OAT. Woke up to quite a layer of ice on the cars and many reports of secondary roads having a sheet of ice on them..

How about you guys?

25F OAT here. Winds must have come from the south. All the south-facing windows are glazed with ice.

Looked out the back door and everything outside has a thin coating of ice. Trees and bushes look like they are made of blown glass.

Strange weather. Went to a skating party last night and it was 7 degrees. Wind started roaring so bad we couldn't stand it and had to go inside. When we went home it was 24 degrees, and now it is about 28 and spitting rain.

It is not even supposed to get above zero on Tuesday.
