[winter flying]

Wouldn't you know it, it's snowing again. Ohio seems jealous that we are trying to leave and visit Florida. We haven't had any snow of any significance in the last week or so, but now that we are trying to leave we've got to contend with a snow storm. Since noon it has dropped about an inch or two of snow, effectively closing down the runways until they could brine, or salt them. I don't know how long they were closed, but they just announced that they are starting to land and takeoff more planes. It's the wet and clumpy sort of snow that binds together to make large clumpy flakes as the snow is falling, so it's not really that bad, it is just accumulating more than a really dry snow.

I've never flown during the winter before, at least not when the snow is falling and piling up rapidly. I have to say that it makes me nervous. I do have faith in the flight institution though. Weather simply makes things a little less predictable, and I would imagine a little more difficult to manage.

Well, that's all for now.
