It was horrible out here last night. By the end of our short venture through the subdivision behind us the kids were begging to get home.
The final stretch was straight into the wind (at least 40 mph) with huge wet snow flakes and ice pelting us. At a point we formed a line behind the umbrella carriers (warriors I say, lol), and the umbrellas were basically folded in on themselves and violently shaking. Sounded like a loose tarp at 100 mph shaking.
I'd say we had only about 25% of the normal crowd throughout the neighborhood, with a running joke that each house was saying merry Xmas instead of happy Halloween.
Worst conditions in my lifetime on Halloween.
