Default Buried...

....in ice.

It's been coming down here all day. I've gone through 50+ pounds of
ice melt, and bought another 40 pounds this afternoon. NO ONE has
flown in or out of Iowa City all day, and we've taken cancellations at
about the same rate as people are stumbling in off the road. One poor
woman did a 360 degree donut right in front of the hotel. She came in
and rented a suite right then and there.

Our only dim hope: The temperature just broke the freezing mark, up
from 23 earlier today. Hopefully the forecasters are correct and
temps will continue to rise overnight...
