Traders agree with me too.

This isn’t a December ‘22

Is this leaning more toward 2021?

How so?

I know with past freezing rain events, trees have fallen onto powerlines causing power outages. They often cause roads to be dangerous to travel. I can even recall thunder during freezing rain. If we get ice accumulations on power lines, expect power outages. I am thinking that could happen, which ...

What temps does the ICON show?

While we were working on prepping the house for the weather, we did see someone drive by with a new generator in the back of the truck. At least some are paying attention.

Thank you, Strat.

What is the timeframe?

I have a feeling this is going to be colder than predicted and with ice.

Wow. I can’t even imagine temps that low if that were to verify.

Also brings in single digit temps for what it is worth and lots of cold daytime highs like the icon!

Single digits in SETX?

What are the temps for the 10 days in SETX? Thank you.

Cosgrove is a solid met

When will tv mets start to talk about these temps being a possibility?

Now the song is stuck in my head 🥶

It sure is, MoCo

Tractor Supply last night had Mr Buddy heaters on sale. Just letting y’all know.

And count on power outages
