How have you been fairing the latest winter storm?
|
The cold dry air has made it far enough south of Iowa that we have only had a small amount of snow a few times since the cold settled in. Which means that the people at the south edge of the cold have received the ice/snow. Cold, but not frigid, and sunny today.

I am used to bitter temps and cold... I am from North Dakota. This year has been mellow up until the past few weeks when the sub zero temps set in. Honestly we are between 5 and 8 feet of snow short this year. I am so used to bad winters that I am set up with a lifted 1978 Jeep CJ-7 with wheel wideners and 35 inch tires, a 2000 Jeep Wrangler lifted with wheel wideners (makes the stance wider and less tippy) and 35 inch tires plus I own a tow truck. I have my house ready with a live generator wired in plus I have two snow blowers and an ATV with 60" plow. The only thing I have used this year so far other than the Jeeps and the house generator. They killed our electricity to save electricity for Texas.... Hell we aren't even on the same power grid as Texas !! That was just a burden put on us to kill our power. Glad I am set up with a generator for the house 𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕟𝕜𝕤 𝕗𝕠𝕣 𝕓𝕖𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕪𝕠𝕦

Being retired I do not have to go out. Before I retired I was a care giver so unless it got real bad I still had to go. Haven't lost power or water. I live in a senior living apartment so if loose power I think we get it on sooner then some types of buildings/ businesses. Humans are the most dangerous animals on earth. If only animals had the ability to know when to keep away from us humans they would be better off.

I read a Texas Mayors comment about how things are and sarcastic comment !! I read the next day that He Resigned !! Reminds Me of the Bambi scene with Thumper , "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all". This Quote should also be FOLLOWED by a FEW People on BLOGS !!!!!

I've had water continuously, but the power has been on and off all week. Pretty sure most of the groceries I stocked up on are bad.

- 13 Ouch We have had the minus with the wind chill factors but only barely hitting negative for actual temps. We have been digging out from the one storm and getting another couple of inches outside now. Sorry to hear about your cousin in Texas. I always thought the rolling blackouts were so every body could have a little heat and light. Some of the pictures on the news last night was very bad.
