We’re as ready as possible.

The rain isn’t supposed to start until about 9-10 PM Sunday night. The problem is the temperatures are not supposed to go above freezing until around sunrise Monday.

So there’s a double whammy. The rain is freezing rain, the super cooled kind that freezes on contact no matter what the temperature of the surface, but also it’s been very cold so all the surfaces of everything are below freezing, so even a normal rain would freeze on contact because of the surface temperature. Usually, it’s one or the other.

Time will tell, but I’ve had a feeling all fall that we’re going to see some icing this year.

If power does not go out for us, I’ll be genuinely surprised.
