Didn’t see a recent weather related thread, so I thought I’d put this up so folks can check in with each other.

I noticed. Me too. Our power went out at 5AM this morning, and didn't come back until 2PM. Got pretty cool inside the house.

Um, the South hasn’t been blasted, at least not yet.
Cloudy and 65 here in Ga. Been raining for a couple
of days.

I got out of DFW a few hours before the storm hit.
Now I am enjoying the warmth of Puerto Vallarta.
If I am lucky the storm will last longer and I will be “stuck” here (planning on returning through DFW to Toronto on Sunday).

Still have power but not out of the woods yet...wind chill down to Zero tonight. Here you see my stately Live Oak bending under the weight of the ice and threatening to remodel the second floor. It's seen many Spring and Winter storms, so I've got my fingers crossed it will endure again. I love this tree!

Almost tropical here, looked like a Gulf hurricane
was about to hit. I didn’t see anyone wearing a coat
when I was out and about todaay.

Was wondering how you were making out, radar was painting your area freezing rain and some snow big time last night.
This morning working outside, hot, 80's and humid, sweating up a storm.
Right now, 44, strong north wind and temp dropping like a rock.

A number of years ago, a snow storm brought down half of a 60 foot tree that stood right next to our house. Fortunately, the half that came down was on the side facing away from the house.
Took me and the boys half a day to cut it up into firewood.

It was gusty here earlier today, but now it’s dead calm. Last I saw, the weather-guessers were guessing 40-ish on Sunday, and it might rain.

they tried changing the name of global warming to climate change because it's not getting warmer. democrats say: “uh did we say global warming for 30 years, uh we meant climate change, that's the ticket any change and it's capitalism's fault.”
It's cold here in the South.
Can Al Gore get down here and warm things up for us?

Thanks for thinking of us, Cajun. We’re good - just frozen in for the next few days.
We were sweating at work yesterday in 81 degree heat. Tried to get as much done as possible, as we knew this cold was coming. The real bummer is that we have to reschedule all our work for the next two weeks.

Thankfully here in middle TN we only got rain. Cold and windy rain for sure but no ice or snow.

Don't I wish I could. We finally got electricity back about four hours ago. Thank goodness. The temp was dropping about a degree every fifteen minutes inside the house. Would'a been real miserable for the family if Ercot hadn't got the power back up.
