Funniest question I've ever heard... I live up in Canada so it's mandatory to have that little electrical cord hanging there. No block heater...no drive to work in the morning when it's -40 degress.

But I totally understand why some don't know what it is for. I was just thinking it was funny.

Bah, we just got that in the last 1/2 hour. Expecting another 2 more inches over night.

Still not cold though, only about mid 20's overnight at worst. Not near cold enough to worry about plugging in tonight.

I might sound like I make light of that snow fall, but after having had opportunity to drive in Southern regions where that has happened, and where it normally doesn't, I know that it's far worse than it looks.

While that may look like light snow and no problem to those of us used to that kind of weather, I know that happening in an area like Arizona it's a huge problem. The roads are not only not built to handle it (concrete is NOT your friend in the cold), but how do you tell a driver of 20+ years, who has never been out in it before, how to drive safely on a sheet of ice?

I may laugh at first, but I know for fact that those conditions would be both super scary and deadly. My last concern in that would be if my truck started or not.


I sincerely hope everyone down there stays safe, and if you are not comfortable driving in that - DON'T, stay home.
