Last time I checked it was -18°F here, but it's supposed to get cold later.

Pathetic. A little drifting, but nowhere near a foot average I would say. about to go out and shovel. not worth a photo (plus I don't have a working camera)

I only got an inch of freezing rain and ice.

That's the good news. The bad news is, my water lines are only buried a few inches deep and they've frozen. No water for me until things warm up again on Saturday. :(

ETA: I am going to go warm up my camper and use the water there for washing and, ahem, personal needs. The cost of that is, no TV and no internet or phone.

I thought you were joking, until I saw the post of a FB friend in Colorado. Picture of her thermometer reading -23. That's just insane.

Brian, you may be one of the "lucky" if your water lines are buried.
Then it's only a matter of digging to find the leak.

When we lived in Dallas it was crazy how many of the older houses
were built with the water lines running across (unheated) attic spaces.

You guys having power outages over there today? None here at the house (obviously, as I am online) but tons in the rest of the city. And now they're announcing rolling blackouts across Texas for at least two more days while they try to balance the problem. You think they're going to have magically fixed the electrical problem just before it begins to snow? I'm not betting on it. Faaahhk....

Hm it was less pathetic while I was shovelling it. Ann Arbor is a ghost town today -it was great! The roads were empty and the open stores too. My Windstar is great in the snow, i had fun driving about (My figure skating class is never cancelled -it's a Winter sport, as they always tell us :lol:)

Now we're going to go and join the rest of Thor's hockey team on someone's backyard rink :D
