Ahead of the Storm

I'm posting this now because we're due for a winter storm with ice and then snow, starting after midnight and running through Thursday.  If you don't see me, we've probably lost either power or phone/internet or both.  If we're fine, I'll add an update in the morning.

If you're in the path of this thing, hang in there.  :hugs:

No worries here.  I laid in supplies yesterday and this morning.  Plus, we have plenty of water already tucked away for emergencies.  Flashlights, batteries, a way to make coffee... And ways to stay warm.  It's all good.  

I'm hoping all of my pre-planning will make the storm go elsewhere.  LOL

Update 5:42am.  Still here.  One weather site is saying only .01-.1 inch of ice.  Another is saying .35-.57 inch. Could be 3-8 inches of snow after that.  Or less.  Who knows?

  1. Good luck! It's going to reach us too but maybe not as densely. Our governor promised we wouldn't have a repeat of last year with rolling blackouts. Either way, we're prepared.

    See you on the other side of this thing.

  2. It came through here a bit after midnight. We have a very slight glazing and precip is decreasing so freezing rain/icing should be minimal for us. Next wave should be snow coming in mid-morning toward noonish. 4-8 inches predicted. All the schools are closed already and the state is on standby. Stay warm and dry! We plan on doing the same. Yay for natural gas to stay warm and cook so if we lose electricity, we're still good and our garage will keep the frozen/cold food good to go. We're ready! LOL

  3. Wishing you luck! Our version is supposed to hit later today/tonight for three days of WAY TOO COLD and just enough ice to be dangerous. I'm staying home.

    Stay safe and warm!
