TheWatShot Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 11 inches of snow where I live, on top of the 8 we already had before yesterday. Fun stuff! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reacher Posted February 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 @IUFLA What is going on down there? Now 4 million without power and calling out the National Guard? It's just a little cold weather. 😬 (teeth chattering emoji) I wouldn't be able to resist the urge to crank my heat up to 75 to have some cushion for a power outage.

I don't know...I've had power the whole time. 4 guys on my staff have been without power at various times, and 1 has been without it for 2 days. Also had some interior pipe issues (busted)... I guess they called out the NG to help move people to shelter and conduct welfare checks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FritzIam4IU Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Not really weather related, but we have a bird feeder that is suctioned cup to our back door and this chunker squirrel is always angry he can't get to it. He always stares in our house... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a fat squirrel too...I think he eats a lot of the seeds that get knocked on our deck. Our dog just looks at him and ignores him. I think he stares in our house 2-3 times a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care this time around. Trip is happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted February 16, 2021 Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Awesome, going to be 2 degrees tonight and my auxiliary heat is only blowing lukewarm. Luckily the local grocery store had some 5100 btu space heaters. Works good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand corrected: 12 inches. Sounds like the Thursday storm everyone was freaking out about earlier this week is going to miss us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
