Gettin' ugly here. Power is down, got 1 tree down across my drive way now. Medium size pine, so chain saw time (again) later today. Local storm tracking on wtva -

Been raining like you know what here all morning, I do believe the worst has just past us though.
The yard looks like a small river, stay safe down there Gene.

Batten down the hatches there Gene. Hope it passes thru and you can take care of things.

the storm roared though where we are parked in our camper north of Houston, on Lake Conroe around midnight .... the biggest blessing is it moved on quickly .... we understand that north of us its dropping some ice / snow .... be safe

Got a light dusting (less than 1/2) here in Dallas today. I'm sure the city will be paralyzed and folks hunkered down due to such 'severe weather.'
LOL.

Minus 30 overnight here. Had a foot of snow three days ago. Dangerous cold weather here expected for the next 10 days. Could get close to -40 over night.
On the upside, I leave for my cruise through the Panama Canal in less than a month!!

The worst of it is past now. No damage. Power is back on. Should stop raining around 1430, and I can get out and remove that pine tree from my driveway. Wife wanted me to do it 3 or 4 hours ago, but there was no way I was going out among all those trees with the wind blowing like it was.

Have a friend that lives close to St. Paul, his son lives in Bimidji MN and texted his dad around 8:30 this morning and said actual temp was -31°.
Glad I'm down here in TN dealing with the wind and rain, and ah ur 60° temps.
