@IUFLA What is going on down there? Now 4 million without power and calling out the National Guard? It's just a little cold weather. 😬 (teeth chattering emoji)

I wouldn't be able to resist the urge to crank my heat up to 75 to have some cushion for a power outage. 

I don't know...I've had power the whole time. 4 guys on my staff have been without power at various times, and 1 has been without it for 2 days. Also had some interior pipe issues (busted)...

I guess they called out the NG to help move people to shelter and conduct welfare checks.

Not really weather related, but we have a bird feeder that is suctioned cup to our back door and this chunker squirrel is always angry he can't get to it. He always stares in our house...

I think a caption contest is on order...

"Hey, ya stingy f%#&s ya!"

He is a fat squirrel too...I think he eats a lot of the seeds that get knocked on our deck. Our dog just looks at him and ignores him. I think he stares in our house 2-3 times a week.

Next thing you know he will be chewing on the wiring on your vehicles.

I'm getting depressed reading this thread.  Looking forward to seeing weather reports that look like this.

I look forward to seeing this in 12 days. We've pushed a trip down to South Florida twice now for a variety of Covid related issues. I don't care this time around. Trip is happening.
