    We are having HORRID winter weather. Unlike I've seen it in my 59 years.

    Everyone is ice and snowed in since Monday morning with more snow and more ice today, Wednesday, and Thursday.

    Temperatures into the single digits. This morning it's up to about 17.

    I know some of you all will laugh as this would be nothing for you, but we don't know how to navigate this here.

    Police are taking essential workers to work such as nurses, etc. They have the vehicles to do that. A couple of organizations have tried to round up homeless people and get them to shelters. Two farmer friends of mine are struggling to keep animals fed, watered, and in shelter.

    Just pray people can keep their electricity. The electric companies have texted and sent out instructions on how to help keep things from being disastrous.

    Children ARE going outside to play - all bundled up - but they aren't staying outside long. I watched my little neighbor - about 8 - slip and slide and fall down about 5 times before she turned around and went back inside.

    It's VERY cold and a mess. I can't help but worry about animals, old people, and the homeless.

    It's a shock to our system.

    They are reporting rolling blackouts in Texas, in part due to reliance on now frozen wind turbines.
