Elmo woke as the sun streaked through the windows. He attempted to open his door. No luck. Elmo rolled down his window and climbed out of the car. After surveying the damage to his former automobile, Elmo realized where he was. Now that the snow had stopped and it was partly sunny with highs in the teens today, he could clearly see his house in the distance. “I should have listened to the weather forecast and the advisories not to drive!” Elmo yelled. Tuesday will be dry with a high of 15 to 20. His car was totaled by the accident and he was lucky to be alive. “Next time, I’m gonna buy a big, old, steel car that will survive these harsh Minnesota winters.”
A terrible night…
