I-70 in all of Missouri closed. All business and schools closed here. I have 12 inches of snow on my back deck, 3 foot drifts in front of my garage doors, winds at 35 MPH, temps at 11 degrees, and plenty of Captain Morgan.

Been getting freezing rain here all day long. Trees & power lines are all coated with ice. Had 8 power surges in the last half hour, still on line but for how long is anyones guess.

Generator is ready to go if needed.

Keep safe out there.

Lights are starting to remind me of a 70s disco tech with all the flashing on & off. Just so they keep coming back on. [-o<

SnowpoCALYPSE !
They have been calling it that all day.
Brother was just coming to save me in his Tahoe when the power came on.
Took me 90 minutes to drive about 5 miles home and at 6:00 as I walked in the power went out but just came on at 9:30 or 20 minutes ago.
We are going to take my niece sledding if roads are passable tomorrow.
Really scary with 50 mile an hour winds,no power,5 foot drifts in the yard,lightning in the sky with garbage cans in the middle of the alley.
Storm is just starting.
I will post pictures here from tonight and also in the morning.
