We have no infrastructure for clearing roads, so we will shelter in place until the sun melts the ice and snow.  Could be a few days.  

I've got plenty of Tito's and Live Oak so I'll be okay.

Many pictures on the bookface feed this morning of temperatures in the -30s.

I went outside with the kids to play in the snow when it was 5 degreesF this morning.  I lasted about ten minutes.  I've been on the summits of ski mountains when it was in the negative teens maybe.  But -30.  Wow.

43°F here and cloudy, not comfortable really, but not like Ohio either.  Not a lick of snow this year, maybe a few flakes once.

I'll be fascinated to see the text of the "climate" legislation that gets proposed.  Beyond incentives for W&S ($$$) and EVs ($$$), and maybe a bit for insulation and tax credits for this and that, I'm not sure what else it will comprise.  Carbon tax?  Maybe a small one, proposed.

Lofty language no doubt, as if this will do anything for the climate.

I'd be in favor of a serious program to replace coal plants.
