Today will be in the 40's but feel colder due to the windchill factor.
    Wow, that is a lot of school to make up! I think the most days mine ever made up was 5, that was all that was missed, and that went into the first week of June.

    Temps here have been up and down, currently a cloudy 69*.

    Hopefully the county roads are thawing today so they will be back to school tomorrow. Our main problem is the ice packed county roads that the busses can't get around on. Hey, it's made it over freezing! 37*!!!! Heatwave!
    Hopefully they will only have to make up those 10 days. Gee, that's a way early release date by our standards, the earliest ours have ever gotten out is Memorial Day weekend.

    Since we normally do not get snow that actually sticks around down here, we usually get ice instead, some people have no idea how to drive on it. So its usually best to stay home and off the roads until it thaws out, which takes just a day or two. I'll send some of our warmth today your way, we are now up to 74*. It's crazy.

    Tell me about it! Yesterday, it was a beautiful sunny 69° - and today 39° ... nope, that's not a typo. It's been raining all day and supposed to change over to snow this afternoon.

    CRAZY!

    Back to winter! 2-4 inches of snow tonight with a glazing of ice. I'm sure school will be out again tomorrow!

    This never happens here! Usually you get snow one day and it melts off the next day or two. This year it stays and stays and stays to the point of ridiculous!

    It snowed last night. But now it's raining, so everything is a 2" slushy mess. Woke up to no power this morning, but it wasn't the weather's fault. Someone hit a pole a mile or so away. (Okay, so maybe the weather had a part; the car slid off the road into the pole.) There is nothing in our house when there is no power: no lights, no phones (yes, we still have a landline, although I have a cell), no heat, no water. Yes, it was absolutely so much fun getting ready this morning. I am actually wearing the same thing I wore on Monday because I knew where the complete outfit was. (Not that I think any of the guys at work will notice.) We do have power at work, and it's supposed to come on at home about 10am (went off about 5:30am).

    Hope you get power back soon, CA! I hate losing power!

    We lucked out and only got an inch of snow, but ice on top. Roads were horrible coming to work. No school.

    My husband messaged me that the power came back on a little after 8am. Yay! Can I go home and get my lost sleep back?

    I agree with everyone - this weather has been crazy ! Yesterday I got about 2 inches of snow during the day. It changed to rain and poured all night long. Today is 50 degrees, and it is supposed to be in the high 40's and 50's for the next week.

    CA - Glad you got your power back on !
