Default Damn Snow and Sleet Storm in Texas

After the snow/sleet storm all day in the Austin and San Antonio area I managed to have my truck covered with about an inch of ice. Managed to break my driver side window as well . Here is the "show and shine" of those nice little icesicles

Day Time (Just when it started to snow):

Damn, makes me glad that I live closer to the coast. Brazoria county where I live and Galveston County where I work were the only 2 areas to stay above freezing temps.

It was the same way here in odessa today. The ice on the roads made my big *** 14 passenger work van hell to drive. I turned right into a road and next thing I know the damn started spinning until the rear tires hit the curb and left me going onto incoming traffic. Then I tried to get out of the way quickly and it started spinning again. It felt like an ice skating ring. We're not used to snow here and alot of people were going off the roads and spinning everywhere. After I got the hang of driving on the ice It was pretty fun drifting.
