Here is a public service reminder from et dot com: if it's snowy/icy/sleety outside, DO NOT try to drive fast. I know I complain that St. Louis drivers get no respect (I've never been in an accident that I caused) but seriously, folks. Do yourself a favor and slow down. Turn your headlights on (which is LAW if your wipers are on).

As my roommate says, there are three things you need to worry about when driving in wet/snow conditions. You can accelerate, stop, or turn, but only one at a time. She should know, because she's from Ohio. Be safe out there. Hope the weather clears before it's time to go home...
