Here in Dallas, we have around 1-2" of accumulated sleet. Which of course means the whole city is pretty functionally shut down. I might get out in it this afternoon to scout the area and see how good/bad it is. Most of the freeways are moderately clear already due to traffic. Looks like the vast majority of any precipitation is done with, but we're not going to get back over freezing to start melting shit until Tuesday afternoon. No power loss yet (knocking on wood) and that's my only real concern.

Now I start debating if I want to try to drive to San Antonio tomorrow for the meetings I have booked down there. A certain someone in this house is pretty dead set against that idea. heh

Athens GA is getting some more freezing rain this afternoon but it is supposed to convert to straight rain. The temperature is kind of odd as it shows it increasing into the evening before dropping back down early morning. Tomorrow it gets back up to 38 but the sun will also be out. Hoping the roads will be passable by Tuesday morning.

Cooled off. Wind blew with gust of about 40mph for a while then the temp dropped from 70 to 35 in about half an hour. Had a tornado warning. Now it's right at freezing.

This ice storm is amateur hour driving tbh. I haven’t even gotten the satisfaction of seeing a single pickup truck driving 70 wipe out yet.

On that site I linked you can flip a switch to see traffic cameras. I got some good entertainment yesterday watching slip'n'slide sled race driving... Today it seems to have quelled down. The major highways between towns all seem to have a single lane cleared by a combination of the Dept of Transport and vehicles driving on them.

Mrs. Haus Mrs. Haus is maintaining that I'm not taking either car out there because of "those other idiots" (as opposed to THIS idiot...)

Stayed off the roads today. We have the last of the system going through now with a sleet/rain mix. Hope the roads clear up tomorrow as I have to drive on them at 6:00 AM Tuesday morning.
