It is 20 degrees on my patio this morning....I don't think the weather got as bad as first predicted, thank goodness, the power was off in some places but not here and school is closed.
 

this latest snowstorm warning from late Weds evening to early this morning the local 'weather experts' kept telling us about didn't pan out. The total was 5 not 12 inches,it was lightly snowing all day,high was 32. I'm not sure why the public/private high schools were closed. The streets were plowed, traffic was moving. The schools are closed again today temps are in the teens

We got nearly a foot of snow out of that same system. How much did you get in Missouri?

I measured a little over 13 inches yesterday afternoon, when the last of the storm passed. There is also a thin layer of ice under it, as the storm began as rain. We woke up this morning to Zero Degrees, but at least the sun is shining, It will be tomorrow before our temp gets above freezing, so I will probably spend some time this afternoon doing some light shoveling, and much of the weekend clearing the driveway, etc.

We dodged a bullet in Houston with the latest deep freeze .... no power problems.
I understand that isn't the case in other parts of the state. Ice on tree limbs has caused issues elsewhere.

.. around 26 degrees this morning here.
They've closed up many things for the day, including all schools.

Thanks Liberty..& hubs, he's the cutest dog, he's called Digger , he's 12 years old now, and he's a Labradoodle... :giggle:..one of 3 doodles my daughter had, and now only 2 left.. and she has a chihuahua too.. ..yes it's a Halo collar. My dd, used to own Boarding kennels, she's also a Qualified Dog groomer.. even tho' it's not what she does for a living now....

Here's photos of the 3 doodles.. the elder biggest one has passed, bless him...

All the dogs are my photographic subjects but Digger adores me so he will sit for me wherever I ask him to..

Here's one of my favourite pics of the hundreds I've taken of him...

I am sooo embarrassed. We live west of the Rockies, so worst thing we get is the Pineapple Express, which is a band of moisture from Hawaii. East of the Rockies, the poor souls there get the Gulf moisture hitting an Alberta Clipper, with snow, ice, etc.
It's 69 and windy today, but next week is forecast to low 80's (!!!)
 
I decided to blade the driveway today....even though our temperature barely reached the mid 20's...but at least the sun was shining, and no wind. I got most of the snow off the driveway, and exposed the thin layer of ice underneath, so when things start warming up tomorrow, the ice should melt fairly quickly. It was some good practice of my Winter driving skills, as the tractor did a lot of slipping and sliding. The county road grader came through early this morning, and plowed the gravel road up to the highway, so now we can get out if we need to.
