Ice and Sleet 1 Attachment(s) Here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area we are covered with so much Ice and Frozen Sleet on top of that. This is a picture looking out my front door. While it may look pretty, I'm stuck in the house for at least 3 day's as it's not going to melt any time soon. Attachment 394594 |
Stuck too! Praying the electricity stays on! |
I still have power and pray it doesn't go out. This morning around 5 AM I head a Transformer the next block over blow and saw the flash of light from it. I just praying 'Oh Not Here. Please" The girl's hate having to go out to potty, they are very careful when walking in the yard. |
Yikes, that doesn't sound fun at all! I'll send some good thoughts for your power to stay on and for your lil ones feet to thaw quickly after their potty breaks! |
Anna refuses to go out in this cold stuff! Fortunately, she uses pee pads fairly well. I am praying you guys don't lose power. |
I saw about your weather on the news this morning! Sounds awful. We are getting some of it too. Already had the sleet now the snow. At least it is easier to walk on snow than ice. Anyway, hope the time goes quickly for you! |
You guys may should think about getting a Portable Electric Generator. Even if you have Natural Gas to heat with, having minimal Electric power can really be such a convenience under those "temporary" conditions. I have a 25 KW, Natural Gas powered, Electric Generator :wink: But, even with one not so powerful (5-10 KW) one can run a few lights, refrigerator, and Fans on the A/C Unit for heating. Then of course the really important stuff like, charging your Cell Phone, and operating your Computer so you can Post like this :D |
I am saying prayers that you all come through the storm safely! Here in Delaware we are expecting 8 inches of snow. We had about 1/4 inch of ice this morning, followed by snow. Of course, Miss Annie couldn't go on her walk this morning, so she decided to poop and pee in the house!! OMGosh, hubby is about to send her packing. I can put her in her gated off area for hours, and as soon as she gets out....BAM!!! On the carpet she goes!! How many more days until Spring??!! :) :) |
in mi we are bone dry, no snow or ice. how weird Texas has it and MI does not. one of the company's I rep for is in AR near the TN boarder and they closed early truck lines were not running because of the ice storms so they closed the factory and headed home. |

Drivers around here are so UN-used to Ice conditions, you literally take your life in your hands, if you get out on the roads. NOT from the Ice, but from the Drivers ! :eek: |

Wow am I glad that stuff didn't come south to the San Antonio area. Cookie absolutely loves this weather in the 30s and I can't imagine sliding on all that stuff when I go grab her to bring her in! |
That's the kind of weather we have off and on all winter. So far this year we have only had a few inches of snow. The last few days we have had temps in the 50's and it was almost like spring again. The temperature has dropped at least 20 degrees in the past few hours. They had warned of possible ice this afternoon but it looks like it missed us. Sorry to hear things got so bad in some areas of the south. I hope we all have a mild winter this year. |
It is 80 degrees here! I am jealous of y'all that have snow. My girls would not know what to do! haha |
Ice is so scary, much worse than snow. Stay safe and I hope your power stays on. |
