good morning!
Just 2 hours ago I had a bit of white knuckle driving in some fresh powdery snow & no salt/sand on the road yet. Almost rammed into someone's rear end too..thanks to my quick reaction & probably flawless abs steering I managed to avoid an accident.

I was driving down a nice big hill around 15-20 slowing easy to a stop. It was very light pressure on the brakes & the tires began to slip and i begin to glide towards the stopped car at the light below. You can only imagine the obscenities coming out of my mouth as I glided forward.. So, I took a deep breath, eased the wheel to the left & let the tires catch to turn out of the way & then hard right to spin the rear to the side...finally stopping me directly in front of the stopped car.
& here is a rediculously accurate paint drawing of the scene attached below..

Morning all just going to bed. Gotta go pick up the new caliper for my son Sentra tomorrow. I ordered it from advanced online and got the wrong one. They are gonna exchange it in the morning. Then I gotta put it on in the freezing cold garage. I hope everyone else has a great day. It's Super Bowl Sunday.

Scattered snow showers all over east of the Mississippi. (Rain south of North Carolina)
hard to predict a certain spot with it all scattered about. Nothing to heavy although some Lake Effect is going to develop later today for the great lakes areas.
As or the west some rain Down near southern California and Arizona, some arts of Utah as well, that should diminish this afternoon.
