Icy Blockade

We are getting an ice storm. DO NOT EVEN THINK OF DRIVING THESE ROADS TODAY! It is chains only as the freezing rain continues to fall. It is weird how it can be 22 degrees and rain. Right now it is 29 and raining the result is an icy mess as soon as it hits. What snow was on the road is now an ice skating rink.
If you are back here the only hope is chains but even then it will be a scary ride. I have decided to stay in and do paper work. Even walking on this can be hazardous. Chance of losing power as this continues is great. So the generator is ready for action. I will let you know how we come through this tomorrow. All the chain stuff is ready: chains for tires, chains for chain saw and cleat for shoes. This is the kind of weather that makes winter hard. I would much rather have 12" of snow. Mountain girl, Paula, logging out.
