Here is how my morning started -

Here is a good look at the 5-6 inches of snow I faced this morning when I got up. The worse part is I HAD to go out in it. The best part is I have my Jeep with 4-wheel drive. I was actually making pretty good time this morning until I got behind some traffic wanting to go 20-25 mph and no way to get around them. Once I turned for the last leg of my 18 mile drive to work, I was by myself on unplowed roads and was able to go 40-45 mph and clocked in at 8:00 on the nose. I made it on time! I am so glad that I don't live in Kentucky with the 1+ inches of ICE. I spoke to several of my contacts down there and found out that a large part of the state was out of power and a state of emergency had been declared. Stay warm and safe everyone involved in this latest hand that Mother Nature is dealing us.

  2. That's great that you have that 4 wheel drive jeep. Yeah, my mom, sister, niece all lost power. They have taken up residence at a local hotel for a few days. My sister's husband works at LG&E and rumor has it that it could be 10 days or more until all of the power is back.
