Hard no, this is the weather where we are now...

My grandson, growing up around Orlando, considers San Diego too cold. I fear the ice which is what they forecast our even ending with. We'll probably be without power for a long time...

Do you have a fireplace or generator?

Do you have a fireplace or generator?

We have gas logs and a woodstove in one end of the house. Nothing in the other. Just have to run the water there. I have a generator 100' away in my shop, which I can backfeed into the house. It is only 85KW, which will run lights, fridges, occasional space heater but not much more. Also, it's been a long time since it's been used, so there's catchup work to be done to get it into shape to perform. Ordinarily, I do that over the summer, but I simply wasn't in physical shape to get it accomplished...

I think Monday's low is 8F, and that's in the valley...

Yep. we could all be in BIG trouble.

Man, y’all be careful - in my nearly 30 years in Memphis I don’t recall a storm this wet and cold.

We may be dodging a bullet here in the Atlanta Metro area. Just last night they were predicted a 1.5 inch deluge of ice, which would be catastrophic, but now they are saying just rain with a slight chance of ice. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Stay safe my friends!

Millions of Americans from New Mexico to the Carolinas are bracing for a potentially catastrophic ice storm, while parts of the Northeast could see enough snow to make travel nearly impossible.

on the south side of atlanta we seem to be right on the edge of potentially not too bad but really cold and wet and potentially very bad.

it looks like the northeast metro and georgia are going to get hammered

If ATL is anything like Memphis, there are lots of poorer folks who will suffer greatly due to the super cold temps. I wish there was a solution.

It keeps changing so I am just not expecting much here in Vinings.

it's been bitterly cold here the last couple of weeks and is going to continue through at least next weekend. they have a few warming centers around the city, but i've still seen a few folks around downtown under big piles of blankets. i don't know how they are surviving

it looks like the worst is going to be north and east of the city up the 85 corridor

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Brother in Providence is expecting 2 feet of snow or I should say up to that much.

The good thing tomorrow is the school closures mean that I won’t have nearly as much traffic when I drive to work in the morning. Of course, I’m assuming at this point that my vehicle will even start tomorrow morning.

Just wait until the heating bills for this month start hitting the mailboxes!

I just hope we aren't a SNL skit again.

I live about 7.5 miles due east of O'Hare - about halfway between Lake Michigan and the airport.
