Jaycee Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Just drove home from school. Streets are a skating rink. Heavy freezing drizzle falling. Yuck.There are accidents all over the place. Just had a very scary drive back from lunch, almost got smoked by a car coming down the highway that spun out and went over the median. Gunna be a rough go around here if this keeps up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlgamer Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Topeka NWS has issued their favorite, oh-so-predictable, 1-3 inch snowfall forecast for Saturday along with a winter weather advisory.
