I woke up and looked at the Weather radar and saw it was going to start snowing pretty good which it did around 4 or 5 am. It was very icy last night and I had to be very careful after going out to eat at a restaurant with friends just going from my 4 wheel drive truck into my hotel.
I woke up this morning hearing snow plows driving by and looked out and they were plowing the parking areas around the hotel.
