This may not sound bad to those of you up north, but for us down south things are pretty bad.
At 1:30 this morning (don"t ask what I was doing up) temp was 34 with rain. Within an hour temp had dropped to below 32 with sleet. Winds 20 mph steady out of the north, gusting to 30+.
Current temp is 17 (its 6:20 now), sleeting hard. Sounds like pebbles hitting the windows. Dallas/Ft. Worth and most of north Tx is shutting down.
On top of the 1/2" sleet, they are predicting 2 - 4 inches of snow. Temps will not get above freezing until Saturday. Temp tonight and Wed supposed to get down to 10, with wind chill in the negatives.
Our offices (wisely) are closed today and maybe tomorrow since the temps are too cold for road conditions to improve.
Wind was strong enough to blow our trash dumpster over even though it was up against the house.
I took a couple of pics, will see if James can post them later.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
