Well it snowed all last night so here in central Missouri we have an inch of ice covered by an inch or two of snow.

Right now its a toasty 4 degrees, -11 with windchill.
 
i love my snow tires 😀 its about -5 here in MPLS area...Minnesota.

toastedlighty...let me get my bathing suit, we can go for a swim after!
 
We dodged the bullet in St. Louis - got ice Friday night, then it melted Saturday and Sunday. The power outages started about 5 miles west of us and got way, way worse the farther west you go.
 
there were 200,000+ homes without power in the st. louis area... and, last night, it was 15 degrees. it's currently 12 degrees sans windchill.

Well, Day 2 of no power. We had to break down and buy an indoor kerosene heater yesterday. After turning it off overnight, it was a balmy 51 inside this morning. 🙁

No power 🙁 Thats no fun.

Now there is like a half inch of snow on the ground here in Rochester Hills...

Which was better than yesterday when I woke up at my family's second house north of grand rapids and found about 7 inches of snow... and my car buried and no roads plowed cuz it's dirt roads!

It's getting worse here. Yesterday only our street was out, now the entire block is plus the school across the street.
Weird. We haven't gone without power for even a second in my area of Rochester Hills.
