Glad your wood stove and furnace are keeping up. It is about 7:00am now and has been sleeting most of the night. Temp is 24F. Power estimated to be restored 1:00pm today, but I am doubtful given the level of icing. I do not hear anymore crack-thud sounds so guess all the weak old growth trees have finished sacrificing themselves to the ice. In my many years here on the homestead this is the worst I have ever witnessed.

Thanks for the update.

Let us know when you get power back, even if it’s days out.

The snow is supposed to start here in the next hour or two. We should just make it hime from church.
