It was 35 degrees yesterday & raining. As the temp dropped it turned to freezing rain...then sleet...then snow.
Went to bed with a blizzard out my window. Woke up at 4:30 am when the power went out. I got up and saw we had gotten about 8 inches and it was still coming down.
It finally stopped and I went out at first light to brush off my truck. The snow was like concrete and the doors were frozen shut. After some pounding I got them open & got most of the snow off the truck...then raked the roof...then took a break...and then started the snow blower.
This stuff was the heaviest, wettest snow I've ever dealt with...but whatever I didn't get today would turn into a block of ice by tomorrow.
Went out 5 times with the snow blower...it was brutal.
Power finally came back on at 5:30 pm...13 hours with no power in the winter...I was getting a little nervous. I had images dancing in my head of the frozen pipes disaster during the texas ice storm.
