I'll take my chances the price will last till the weekend. 5" so far, more to come then a high of 17 for tomorrow. Probably nothing more than a dusting for some folks!

Here are the key parts.

I found that I had a gallon of -50 marine antifreeze left over from boat winterization at put it on the porch 2 nights ago. Went down to the single digits and it was solid slush in the morning. I doubt any small pump could move it.
I'm a lot less confidant that this is a good solution for DIY cooling except for "normal" temp control .
I wanted to use it for lagering down to 32 in my fermentation cabinet, and not sure its going to work now. Never realized that it slushes up above zero.
