Okay, late-night update from the southern marches.

At 11:30pm, the power flickered three times. It seems to be stable now, but ...

The temperature has been hovering around 34 degrees for the last few hours. It went down to 33º briefly around 10pm, with winds solidly from the south at around 10mph.

Now, however, at midnight, the temp has gone back up to 34º, but the wind is cycling wildly from the SSW to the NNE, and gusting up to 21mph.

NWS is now saying that we will see freezing precipitation here in Austin between midnight and 4am. I'm going to wash clothes, wash dishes, and shut down the 'puters before that.

I'll post a little later, and then in the morning, assuming we have power then ...!

Well, you kept power through 24, that's the important part. :~)

Good luck to you, stay warm.

I did hear from Rosie, she landed here and is headed south. Waiting up for her till we can take Cisco back :~)
