un-like.  I'm guessing you are good or you would've asked us all for something.

All good , gas logs , hotspot on iPhone. Hopefully it will be back on in a few hours ... Gonna leave all water dripping , grab another comforter for the bed and hit the sack.

Ice and trees killing power all over sweetwater, they can barely stay ahead of it listening into the scanner.

Just a reminder to the Genny users please make sure your connection to the main powerline id disconnected so the electricity can't back feed, as a former Line clearance tree trimmer, and the father of a Supervisor at Wolf Tree I thank you.

 We had a lot of problem with this working an Ice Storm in Arkansas back in 2001 I had a couple of my guys put in the hospital due to a genny back feed. so lets keep the guys tring to get your power back on safe :2cents:  :)

Went and picked up a friend for her shift at St. Thomas dropped her off around 6 last night and I'm waiting to pick her up now. Last night the surface streets were not that bad but 40 and 440 were bad. Looks like they spent a lot of time clearing the inter and intrastates last night but all of the surface streets are frozen sold and nasty. Be careful if you get out, there are a ton of people driving around this morning that don't have a clue but that's no different from any other day. Come to think about it I can get to where I need to in Nashville quicker in this mess than normally.

we got a fair dusting of snow last night.  heat pump is hanging in there.   Maybe the lower humidity is helping.   

[Dolomite`s Breezy]

lost power for a bit last night up here..its back on ..

Its just nasty out.. my son and his wife and baby where coming up from Georgia.. had to tell them to turn around and go home.Our roads are impassable.. even with 80 lbs of Icemelt.. its useless now.

 

So glad power is back on. I would hate to think of what we would have to do to stay warm.. ..................................snuggle.. yuck!!.... :yuck:  

 

:pleased:

We're supposed to get back to Nashville early this afternoon, anyone know what the interstate is actually like heading West?

[TripleGGG]

We lost power about 20 minutes go in Farragut area. Good layer of ice on everything.

Heat pumps just don't work when the temp drops into the 20's or colder.  Hard to extract heat from 20 deg air.

Same here.  I made it in to work without any problems.  Some slick spots for sure, but passable and mostly just wet.  The re-freeze tonite should be interesting.

the truck looking all mad max :rock:

Well, they shut down BNA all day today too. We just bought some other tickets and going to come into Birmingham and drive up.

Weather was awesome out here, but this turned into a rather expensive trip due to the incidentals.

[R1100R]

Wilson County just cancelled school for the rest of the week.

I don't think I'll make it with all these kids.

[Raoul]

Looks like about 8 inches here. I just finished digging out, checking on my mother, etc.

I'm too old for this.
