Exactly the same here. It looks like it just started sticking to car windows again maybe half an hour ago.

If I had not seen it on a government webpage, I would have doubted there was a word such as 'Frontogenesis'.

Whoever took off their tires yesterday forgot the first rule of living in Northern Nevada: Don't take your snow tires off until after the first autocross of the season.
