As ICE agents surged into Minneapolis, they found actual road ice to be more than a match for their wits and driving skill.

      I will preface I hope you and everyone around you is safe, lots of snow is no joke when driving. Not trying to one up you but I don’t think Kentucky is the same as northern Canada outside odd conditions is all least not when I grew up. Mostly northern Canada winter is icy not lots of snow roads, cause we got lots of snow plows which sort of compact snow to ice it worse.

      I didn’t mean to mean it didn’t snow much elsewhere but used to snow in September and didn’t thaw till spring…well late 80s mid 90s time era. Once it started you put the tires with studs on till least April or May sort of thing.

      Once drove threw fresh snow on the highway (early - mid 2000s) could just know where the highway was cause of the hump, besides the highway was ditches. Made it to the airport to rock out new years on the coast. Made sure to leave so I could drive 50kph the entire way just in case heh (normal city speed). Though the snow on highway stopped after about 300kms so could have been worse.

      Again hope everyone you know is safe and all, di fucking hate winter these days lol fuck northern weather.
