No, we didn't lose electricity; however, we're both so durn sleepy we can barely keep our eyes open!

And, no, it's not carbon monoxide --- plenty of ventilation in this place! (Durn heating unit won't stop running!) We didn't sleep much (me) or well (DaBear) last night.

I don't sleep well when there's a weather emergency.

Therefore, a report from the southern marches.

We're getting a real "wintry mix," alternating and combining light snow, moderate sleet, and moderate freezing rain. At 12:06, it was sleeting/raining; at 12:39, it's pretty much all snow. At 12:50, it's a mix of sleet and snowflakes. The temperature is bouncing between 26 and 27 degrees; however, we're beginning to wonder if were in a protected spot, as the trees don't get iced and the parking lot isn't iced.

We're warm; DaBear is sleeping, and I'm watching the weather and Are You Being Served? on the BBC America channel.

Now, at 1:05, we're back to sleet and/or freezing rain ...

I'm confused... the snow let up this morning and it is supposed to start raining. But looking out da window at da office... it started snowing again.

Hmmm...

Sheltering in Place sounds like a prudent course of action. You and Bear take care down there..

My buddy down there emailed me from his apartment complex business office, he was wondering bout Texas weather, he just moved from Louisiana.

In other news, the ridge is still 'off-line'.

Glad to hear you're safe. We had an icy mess up here Sunday night and Monday morning. It's supposed to snow tomorrow. We'll see. You can't trust the weatherman.
