Was on the lake yesterday in spite of being "on call". Received a recorded call from Entergy saying be prepared for outages. I feel woefully unprepared. Just this morning I found we were out of bread.
Be safe, drive slow, don't be out in it unless you need to be.
Let's hope we dodge this one.
Just rain now. Going to make church, might have to live there if the preacher ain't done by noon!!! :biggrin
In like a lion, indeed...................
Sunday morning 9:45, it just started sleeting here, Church was called off, I am tired of winter.
So far no ice sticking to the trees, just a dusting of sleet in Norfork. Anybody getting freezing rain?
Ice on cars. Ice starting to form on trees. Big trucks on the interstate have big chunks blowing off. I can hardly wait for the power outages. My weekend pulling "on call" duties. Lovin it:banghead
Hope ya'll miss the Ice - we are sitting on 70 degrees but for sure colder weather on the way.
I forgot what 70 degrees feels like. But! So far we are dodging the bullet on this one as its mainly staying south moreso. We did receive a skim of ice on everything and a dash of sleet and are in the hole between it all..snow is staying north of us,,and ice is south of us and hope it stays all there and leaves us with no more than a couple of inches of snow before its all overwith. Stay warm and keep on fishing and we will just have to wait for spring and ice thawouts around here.Quote:

We've got about 2" of sleet on the ground and had plenty of thunder around 3 pm
8:30 pm
It's an official MESS. White, hard, wind, cold, more white, thunder..............
I keep looking for clouds to open and horsemen riding on fire to come down. This is awful.
Ain't no one around me going anywhere for a while................
Our police department has made a statement for no one to be on the street unless it is an emergency. I've never seen so much sleet
Got a good mess of sleet at Lake Nimrod.
RCC I hope you are staying safe out there on your "On Call" weekend...
I'm immobile for days. TV shows lots of NE Ark badness. We have lots up there. Hope you guys are ok, worried about everyone............this is not pretty, folks....this is a mess.
Up all night. No phun. Dangerous. Lots of wrecks and lots of people stuck.Quote:

I made it. Stuck in the house only one day. Didn't even need the bread and milk. DP
