It gets cold. It gets colder. It snows a little bit. It snows more. Then it gets a little warmer and the snow starts to melt. It becomes slush. It gets cold again. Then you have roads covered in frozen slush. Then it's cold but it rains, the frozen slush gets 'wore down' and it's all smooth. It's still cold and it has become ice.
Now one of two things can happen. It can snow and after a day or two of dangerous ice covered in snow, making it look safe while being a death drap in disguise, it finally 'settles down' and stays there. For about a week.
However.. the other thing can also happen. That other thing is rain. The city covered in slippery ice. Then it rains. There's water on the ice. Do you know what happens when there's water on ice? It's slippery. Very very slippery and very very dangerous.
That's why I don't like ice anywhere but on the lake.
Now that is said, it didn't always use to be like this. Usually that first thing happened, less rain, but there was ice and it was covered in snow. The past years we've had less snow, more rain. The world is getting warmer, the north pole is melting.
Although I don't beg, I would give you a please please pretty please, but when it comes to ice... no likey. no thank you.
umm... well... erm... I'm good, thanks for offering, ice doesn't sound so bad anymore
