(would u call it that mr U?)And today... i walk out to my car.. and BOTH doors are frozen shut! so I try opening the driver door again.. and the handle snapped off!!I am pretty pissed off!! I just bought my new honda civic less than 4 weeks ago!I had to crawl in through the trunk!!

I hate this weather!!!!
-
Hot water
-
A bit of de-icing windshield washer fluid will help to melt the ice, and to prevent it from coming back for a period of time, or anything with a small bit of propylene glycol (but not anti-freeze, that'll strip paint) the windshield washer fluid will be safest, though.Pouring hot water will temporarily relieve the problem, but that water will just freeze again (now, in a nice little block just outside of your drivers door, lol) also, a rapid change of temperature could cause cracking or shattering of the windows, too (Although that would be pretty rare; but then again, how often does one break off their door handle?)

I wish i could trade weather with you, we never get ice storms or anything close to that in Cali lol (atleast not in Santa Cruz)
-
Really don't mean to laugh, but picturing the handle snapping off I kinda chuckled to myself. Sorry to hear that, though.
-
Yeah it is kinda funny now.I was pretty pissed at the time.Bought a pack of smokes just to chill out!! I never do that!

the last time i saw snow was in 1999 ( i think it was 99) and a few years b4 that we were hit with a ice storm. all i can really remeber formn the ice storm is falling on my ass in the drive way and no school. i think it be cool if it snowed but.....will probably never happen (at least not this year.). but who knows.hating on the weather.....lol well i'm not in no ice storm but yesterday it was 80 somthing degrees and today it's like 36degrees. one day i'm in shorts and the next a hoody. lol i wish our stupid weather would just make up it's mind to if it wants to be warm or cold.
-
Yeah, I know what you mean.
-
We've only had light snow the last couple days. Aha, Go to school, lots of snow, come home after school - No Snow.
-
Yeah we haven't had snow here for years. But I do live in San Diego.
-
life has been TOOOOO stressful!! There is barely any snow on the ground but there was a snow day!
-
At least you're not about to run out of drinking water Oh, wait. People have been praying for rain, so we should be fine.
-
Are you guys in a pretty bad drought in GA.?
-
Yes, we are. Last time I checked Atlanta was about a 20-inch deficit of rain. Two sources of drinking water (Lakes Allatoona and Lanier) are drying up. Estimates say we have less than 100 days of drinking water left. Our governor Sonny Perdue (ick) has been "battling it out" with Alabama and Florida over how much water is released downstream. Here is the "solution" to the problem.He's also been praying for rain .
-
Are you on water restrictions? We have a ten-stage process and have been on stage 3A for about a year, with a strong likelihood of going further in the next few months.
-
North Carolina is down 22 inches, which equals over 600,000 gallons.
-
By drinking water, do you mean tap water.
-
Yes, north Georgia is under a Level 4 drought restriction.
