| We are always in its path. Lol. We are to get lots of snow and much colder temps starting today. I hope everyone in the south is prepared! |

| We are in the path of an ice storm in NC/SC. |

| I've heard we're going to get some snow. Each time I hear about it, it's more and more LOL! We'll see what happens. (I'm hoping for the 10"!) |

| Y'all stay safe and warm! I think we'll get cold here and maybe a little ice. This afternoon, my sister and I put antifreeze washer fluid in cars and we wrapped our outside faucets. We should start seeing the cold and rain on Saturday. My son in East Texas seems to be just on the edge of the storm but my daughter in southwest Arkansas is right in the path. They have already told them to prepare for weeks without power and water. They live in a very rural area with lots of trees in those power lines. They seem to be prepared - I sure hope so! |

AMEN!
The glitter has started here :) Tiny little flurries. The cows were extra ornery tonight. They love the snow.

| Amen. Please be safe, sisters. Listen to what the “professionals” are saying. Wish we could get some snow. Our mountains seriously need it. Freezing rain will probably happen behind snow. :) |

This is what we woke to this morning. It's 12 degrees at present but we are under a extreme cold advisory and they say it could get to 15 below with extremes at 25 below. We measured 11 inches so far and it started about 9 last night.
How is everyone else doing. My brother and wife in TN said the ice and snow cause their greenhouse roof to collapse. Hoping they don't lose everything in there to the cold. |

| ooh, I am stealing Heather's idea of calling snow "glitter." Ohio looks like how I remember Minnesota. Stay warm everyone! |

We are chilly here (30's) but we live so close to the water that we didn't freeze last night. They do expect a hard freeze tonight into Monday/Tuesday. My sister and I are just curled up with hot tea and some crafty projects.
My daughter and her little family have snow and ice. They lost power this morning and also lost a tree but luckily it was away from their house. They don't expect to get power back for a while. My son is a little further south from her and so far he's just iced in.
Stay warm and safe! |

We are up to 14 inches and expecting at least 4 more before it's over tomorrow. Everything closed for tomorrow. Schools etc. Haven't heard if work is shut down yet. |

JT won't be going in today. They plowed but didn't really do much of a job of it on our road. One pass and that was it. It snowed overnight so still too much snow to go anywhere. The kids are off school and it would be nice to see them but I don't know that we will venture out even just to their house. I hope everyone has power and such. |

| I am in NC and We never lost power but the roads are thick with ice and topped with a little snow. |

All is well on the farm in winter wonderland :) Not sure what our snow total is - waist deep in some spots, ankle deep in others - just depends on how the wind blew it, but it's a nice amount!
Happy to hear you have power Wanda Sue! Be careful on that ice. |

| I was wondering how much snow you got, Wanda Sue. We weren't supposed to get any and it snowed all day yesterday! Not a lot, but still made me happy :) Hope you're safe and cozy. |

| Well it didn’t start until 4:30pm on Saturday and was so tiny you could hardly see it. It must have snowed all night be cause we woke up to 4 to 5 inches! It was so pretty but I didn’t get pictures soon enough, the sun popped out and started melting very quickly. I will try to post a pic soon. |
