Freezing Fog

I often listen to a little bit of local news and weather before I get out of bed in the morning. Perhaps to decide if I want to get up or not. Anyway, Saturday morning the weatherman said that we were experiencing freezing fog, therefore slippery roads, and visibility was 1/4 mile. Sounded like a day to roll over and go back to sleep if ever there was one. But curiosity got the better of me and I went to my balcony to see what 1/4 mile visibility looked like.  It was very white - I could barely see the trees across the river, and the bit about freezing on the roads must have also been correct. It seemed like I heard sirens all morning long and later in the morning when I tried to drive out of the apartment complex my usual exit was blocked by two police cars diverting traffic because of an accident in the next block.  My reaction to the whole weather episode was "I'm so glad I'm retired."  while my daughter-in-laws was "Why couldn't it have happened on a school day?"  She loves school delays caused by fog which absolutely never happened when she taught in Phoenix.
