St. Louis has called in 500 electrical contractors. They're expecting over 100,000 to lose electric with low temperatures (-1) arriving. The National Guard is on stand-by. We're sitting on pins and needles waiting for it. I think it's our first blizzard. One problem - I have to drive my dad for eye surgery tomorrow morning for a detached retina. 
Oh my goodness, please be safe. Maybe they can reschedule the surgery? Your poor dad...bless his heart...and yours 
Thank you.
I am worried about driving in that tomorrow. He's on oxygen too. We can't get stuck.
The doctor won't reschedule the surgery. Heavy sigh. If they don't do it, he'll the sight in that eye. I bought flashlight batteries and water today. I'm doing laundry now. I hear somebody outside trying to scrape the ice off their windshield. All of the schools here closed early except my child's. I brought my child home anyway. lol |

Great advice OP!
Here in Vermont, we're only getting a dusting tomorrow, which is about 3-8 inches. We're expecting about a foot and a half or more on Wednesday. Yee ha! I'd rather have a blizzard than the -30 degree temps we had earlier this week. That's just brutally cold! Plus I have a 4WD truck! Here's a bit more advice to help you all weather the storm... If you do lose heat, to prevent water pipes from freezing and bursting, leave the tap dripping slightly. If you need to travel, make sure you have a blanket and an extra set of dry, warm clothes in your car, especially socks and an extra pair of gloves. Tell someone your route of travel and expected time of arrival in case you slide off the road and get stuck. It wouldn't hurt to throw a lighter and some bottled water in your vehicle either, although you really should have those in there all the time, not just in preparation for a storm. And my last piece of advice is...don't aim for the head in your snowball fights. Those suckers can leave a mark! |

It's officially blizzard conditions here today. Got into full swing about 4 this morning. White-out conditions. Snow is blowing sideways. Can't even see my neighbor's house. The town here has officially closed down, nothing is open. They're calling for 20 inches of snow here through today and tomorrow and as cold as -16 temps. We are pretty much snowed in, even with a 4WD truck. It is doubtful that the mail will even be delivered....I don't blame them! We're under a state of emergency and the National Guard is on standby to help folks stranded. This is nuckin' futs!!
So far, no power outages. I heard this morning Louisiana is having tornadoes! That's just crazy!
Everyone, please take care and stay safe. |
