The Horror

Today on the way to work, I watched in horror. Today is the day when we are expecting a hard frost. The warning is until 10 in the morning. There are even lake effect snow flurries in the region. Think on that. It was cold enough that snow from the Great Lakes stayed aloft and landed in the DC metro region. No accumulation, but still.

Today is also the day where it was only hitting the freezing mark on my way to work. The freeze is occuring after 6 AM. Can't protect those tender perennials when you aren't home to keep them from steam roasting. Even though all the radio commentators and weather guys were talking about it.

The true horror I saw this morning? The gas station had its sprinklers running
