I just got back inside from scraping the steps. There's at least an inch and a half of solid ice under several inches of powder. If the weather alternates around freezing during the next few days, we will have solid ice in the gravel making it impossible to walk across the driveway.

Gnu, I have a friend from Florida who shakes his head at all the crazy people who live above the Mason-Dixon Line, says that those poor folks just don't know any better!
