A massive winter storm poised to unleash a barrage of heavy snow, treacherous ice, rain, and severe thunderstorms across a 1,300-mile swath of the United States will affect an estimated 62 million people starting Saturday afternoon and continuing into Monday.

Snow and ice so far this winter in the eastern two-thirds of the country have been limited to northern states.

I don’t know. Depends on how color blind I guess.

I should think there would be Madam. In a frosted glass. Question is though with what else? Club soda, seltzer?

I’m thinking vodka, cranberry juice, and orange juice. There’s probably already a drink like that, but I don’t know. Haven’t really had much alcohol since the ‘70s when dancing at the discos.

That combo sounds good. I needed a side dish in a hurry for Christmas potluck and raided the pantry. Mixed whole berry cranberry sauce with about 1/4 C. marmalade, walnuts, and tiny chopped celery pieces — then put mandarin orange segments on top. It was a hit.

I was thinking vodka too and perhaps gin, definately not whisky.

Not for something with the word ‘’wintry’’ in it.
The ingredients you describe sound very tasty. It should have crushed ice, not too much and perhaps a lime. Like you I haven't done much drinking lately. Actually 35 years next month.

Just think though how confusing it would be.

From Ryan Hall, Y’all. There’s a tornado warning up in Mississippi and roads in Kansas are being shut down and there’s a massive traffic jam on the interstate. Wind chills are about 7 degrees.

I hate temperature drops like that.

Going from 60’s to snowing in one day rots.
