Oy! We're in the zone.

1. And I'll take the opportunity

to give a shout-out to my little electric co-op, Blue Ridge Electric; power outages are extremely rare even during the worst weather, and then only for short periods of time, while I read of Duke customers nearby that are powerless for days from the same storm.

2. Knock on wood. nt

3. Seriously :)

be hunting that wood if power does fail!

4. Stay home and stay warm

Climate Change is here, and all the Republicon lies in the world can't change that reality...

Republicons are intent upon leaving America defenseless -- unprepared to deal with reality. Massive dangerous idiotic FAIL from them.

Republicons have gone AWOL from reality.

5. In Atlanta >>> WE ARE READY!!!!!....

This morning the forecast was:

There should be a wintery mix just north of us BUT it might also fall directly over the city or just south of the city. So be ready for anything and whatever you do, DO NOT GET IN YOUR CAR UNLESS YOU HAVE TO! You might be driving in rain or snow or a wintery mix OR possibly on dry roads...but why take chances?

If you must go out, pack 3 to 5 days supply of food and water, flares, a life raft for heavy rains, and a coffee can to do your business.
