I watched the news this am with a segment on OK. Lots of ice going on there.

We did freeze last night w/ frozen roads. My hubby will be doing my driving work for me this morning so I'm thankful of that. He knows I stink at driving on bad road conditions, LOL.

Ice is treacherous for driving. Keep safe all of you!

We didn't get it as bad as out west. WOW!! The paved roads are in pretty decent shape, but the gravel roads are horrible.

I saw the news also Michelle, I hope you still have electricity, it looks really bad. Let us know how you're doing.

Janet....did you have to drive bus today. They cancelled school up here. It was pretty nasty this morning, but it wasn't too bad at lunch. Walking is worse then driving.

Yes I drove this morning. It wasn't bad at all on the paved roads, but the gravel roads were horrible. My son wanted to drive and he really needed to, but hubby called and said the roads were really slick.....he has a tendency to exaggerate some. I think my son would have been okay driving. It was foggy here a little bit, how about up there?

No Fog, but it was so overcast that it looked like it was still dark til 10. The ice had started to melt at lunch once it brightened a bit.

Janet, you are just too funny!!!!

Beautiful pictures!!!

Y'all Notherners take care out there & stay safe!!!

What a mess!
My prayers are with you all to stay safe.
So far it's all staying south of me. It's been too cold here to rain. So we're on the upper edge of the storm but getting snow rather than ice. Just an hr or 2 south of us they are getting rain and ice and dh is out driving, so is NOT a happy camper. I guess he's going to be waiting it out in a truck stop rather than getting his miles and making his delivery times. Thank God he's smart enough to just pull over and do that.

Michelle, I had not seen your pictures when I made the earlier post. Sure hope when things thaw out, some of your trees will be salvagable. It's amazing sometimes how trees can heal when we think they are a loss. We see it from hurricanes. Trees are broken and bent, but a year later, you would never know.

Wishing all you in the ice and snow warmth, safety, and electricity very soon!!!

Janet · 12-11-2007, 03:39 PM

Okay, I'm tired of winter now..make it go away. It's been rainy and foggy all day long, we're suppose to get some snow this weekend..AND I NEED TO FINISH SHOPPING!!!!!

Sorry that was just a minor attack there. I'm better now. I really do need to get some shopping done before everything is completely picked over.

I saw on the news that Oklahoma City was hit pretty hard with ice. How are you doing! I know that a lot of people are without electricity.

We're in a warning for this afternoon and all day tomorrow. We have ice on the roads and they're pretty slippery. I'm planning on just staying home and getting some things ordered on the internet. The kids didn't have to go to school today and I wonder if they'll be out tomorrow too. I sure hope that our electricity doesn't go off. I have that!
