Yesterday was cold, never got above about 37 here with a low of 19. Today the low was 24 and there is a light dusting of snow. The precip didn't arrive in my area until well after midnight so the light snow stuck on the ground. Sun is out now and even though it's still only 26 it's melting on the street. I didn't hear the school bus so I think they closed the schools down due to icy roads. Yeah to the north it wouldn't be any big deal but no one here has even snow tires much less studded tires or experience with ice. Better to just say stay home and resume operations tomorrow.
So far the grid has held up. Got my fingers crossed some moron doesn't take out a power pole due to stupidity and ice. Got an all electric house here as gas not very common in my town.
