yeah, it's been nice and warm this week. Back to wearing shorts this week. But the message will be back soon.

 

Living in Florida with the HHR, it doesn't get that cold here, but a year or so ago I was up in Maine in early December and saw that message pop up on DIC. I try to stay away from cold weather if I can.

 

True, no ice at 37° F... until you drive over any part of the roadway that has been cooled by wind chill, such as a bridge. It's just a reminder, and I think it's useful. If it's cold as hell and the place is covered in snow, no reminder is needed. Close to freezing is exactly when I find the reminder most useful. At least, it was before I moved to the tropics. Now it's much less of an issue (though it does sometimes freeze high on Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa).
