.... this is what we're dealing with around here. I took these photos about an hour ago. Everything's coated in a heavy layer of ice. Lots of tree branches are down. There are many, many power outages across the area. So far, ours here has only been out twice, for a few brief minutes each time. But be forewarned that if my blog posts stop for a while, it's due to either no power or no internet. Our internet was out for 12 hours or so, but came back on mid-afternoon.
Courtney had no school today, so she spent the day with me. She also spent most of yesterday here, too, after they closed school at 10:00 a.m.
School is already 2 hours late for tomorrow. But with the 7 inches of snow in the (winter storm warning) forecast for overnight, with a couple more or so for tomorrow, no doubt school will be cancelled. If Mommy makes it to work tomorrow (which is very doubtful), Courtney may be here again. We've been having fun, despite the return to winter.
Is it sunny and warm where you live???

Yes, were I still living in lovely, equatorial Singapore. But ... no. I live in Minnesota, where the weather gives pre-Pevensie Narnia a good run for its money. Bah. Stay safe, you.
Your weather is gross, Mum.
Well..things can turn on a dime, so I'm staying optimistic.
Ugh. Thick ice like that means trees and power lines are certainly in danger. Stay safe!
Chilly and rainy, but no snow cover. Hope you thaw for the last time soon. Stay warm! I'd say a good day for a last cup of hot cocoa and warm cookies with Courtney!
So much for optimism, Alex... this time it did exactly as predicted. We have 8-10" of new heavy, wet snow. Yay... NOT! It's still coming down, but hopefully will be done soon. I had to wear my BIG boots this morning - grrr. Our power remains on, although it's flickering occasionally, so who knows if it'll last or not.
