Ice, again
January 13th, 2007
This is one of the most odd winters I’ve seen. Temperatures in the upper sixties for many days, fifties, then…wham…ice. There are now nearly 150,000 homes without power here and the number is growing. We have power, thanks to our underground lines throughout the subdivision. Here’s a shot of the Winter wonderland in our backyard.

Here in the north country, we hit a low today of 25 — below zero.
That ice storm looks pretty nasty. My Minnesota tip for staying warm: Stock up on fleece, find a warm fish house, and stay inside.
McCain: Brrrr!
Paul,
I agree this has been a very odd fall/winter so far. But January is only half over and living in the South the end of Jan., Feb. and March are usually the worst. Matter of fact I remember one year there being 6 ft. (Six Feet not inches) of snow in May in North Carolina. Talk about an annomaly.
The picture you provide reminds me of numerous ice storms while growing up. Ironically I remember one year where we were out of school for nearly a month due to one storm after another. Ice, then snow, then ice, then snow, then ice. But we took it all in stride and enjoyed it as best as we could.
It is at times like this that one could have an opportunity to cozy up with the Word of God or the New Edition of the Book of Concord!!
Thaw out and stay warm!!!
I’ve figured it out. Global warming is following Al Gore around wherever he goes.
