Now the question is, do we go to Raleigh for our fingerprinting appointment tomorrow? Of course, the temperature is going to dip below freezing tonight, causing all the rain and snow to turn to ice. And, seeing as we live in North Carolina, a relatively snow-free state, it's highly unlikely the roads will be de-iced. I called the USCIS hot line and inclement weather is a valid reason for rescheduling an appointment. We simply need to write a letter explaining our absence and they will send us the new appointment time. It's not like we're in a huge hurry--we don't have an application in anywhere, we just want to keep our options open.

On the other hand, we never off-loaded our snow tires from our winter in the Great White North. So, we could get those put back on and make the drive tomorrow in relative security. And, it did take them about 3 months from the mailing of our application until the first fingerprinting appointment. What to do, what to do?
