Pilots under the weather

Jay Honneck is on the edge of a system between forecast Blizzard and
Winter Storm warnings.

Freezing rain here, again. Kids are off school, too, dang it.

I had hoped to fly them over to Rantoul, IL, to visit the museum at
the old Chanute AFB. Instead, we're going to drive to Cedar Rapids
to buy some beds for the hotel.

Whoopee!

90,000 homes still without power here from the LAST storm.

Buy one for me.
I've been up since 2am out in this blizzard. It's solid IFR, right down to
the ground. Solid white-out with 20-30mph winds, snow, sleet, freezing
rain, it even hailed or pelted us with ice pellets for awhile. If you're
not following a snow plow, you're not moving. Plows on pickups do not
count.

Bought six, and a bunch of other stuff. Found a great burger place in
CR, too -- we'll take you there next time you and Tami make it to
town.

That sucks. We've got blizzard conditions here now -- white out, with
50 mph gusts -- but I don't think we'll get more than 4 inches of snow
out of it. Luckily, it was warm here, with a hard, cold rain most of
the day, or we'd be in the same boat you're in...
