I can tell you one thing for certain, that trip is going to be a really big dill.

Out of our last 3 outages, we're 2 for 3 so I think I'm taking the over.

Well I’m as prepped as I’ve ever been for a storm in north LA. Generator full and 4 five gallon cans ready, propane full and ready to run fireplace and enough food to feed a small country.
Which means it’ll just be all snow where I am and the power will stay on.

In my world, that means 100% chance of safe, uneventful weather.

I have a handle of vodka and 75 rolls of toilet paper. Should be good.

Depends on whether or not the sun actually comes out in a big way tuesday.
A few hours of full sun will do a number on ice

You know that feeling when you watch the local news and the "Locally Heavier Accumulations" color is centered right over your house? Yeah, I just had that.

I would gladly waste a couple hundred bucks to avoid an inch of ice
Losing power with 2 toddlers is a different animal. Add in cold and boredom and it's a recipe for disaster

I have to work Monday so I figured I'd take it easy.

That’s where we are. My prep was mainly that I have a pier and beam house. So closing vents and making sure all pipes under house are ready. Then I had to make sure all the outside spouts on the property and in the pasture were properly covered. I bought 100 rags from Walmart and 2 rolls of duck tape. It’s going to take 45 minutes to unwrap them when it thaws up.

I’ve got a generator to run my well pump if we lose power. Other than that the fireplace is all we need to keep us warm. Let’s get this winter storm going.

I can hike over to you with a fifth of four roses if necessary baw

So the rain bands that we’re gonna accumulate the most ice appear to have shifted south and east

No. I don't wanna. It was one thing watching this shite from afar. Now, you LA baws have let it break containment. Dammit.
