Ouch.

At least all the ice here melted. At least all that on paved areas. Now we jsut hae to wait for the ice-crusted tree limbs to fall accross all the power lines in the area.

The northern Queensland coast is shredded, but due to building codes and dumb luck there is no indication of deaths yet.

Hugely different to Katrina.

Anyone heard from Wanda lately?

Ok, so who pissed off the natural disaster gods?? They sure seem to have Oz in their sights.

Looks so far that no one has lost their lives, so to me we made it through successfully, even if many houses and building copped a flogging!

It's the building codes Fang. Not replacing disaster buildings with equally fragile deathtraps.

Cold.......with a windchill.

I fucking protest the weather here. Woke up to no water; all the pipes in the neighborhood are frozen. Mr. AZRH went out with the hairdryer to discover the broken pipe. Ooooh...a rainbow! Ours is not the only geyser I saw today. 31 degrees on the way to a whopping 38.

IN ARIZONA.

Now, we're pretty lucky compared to most. The electricity is on and the furnace is running. The roads are clear and there's food and (now) drinking water in the fridge. But we desert rats are ill prepared for weather like this.

So is Tennessee. Look at it this way....at least you have someone to keep you warm.

It's a big bed, Lord Snow. There's room for you, too. ;)

AZ, I don't share my toys well.....Only child SINdrome and all that. :D

I can see Mr AzRH meekly accepting exile from the sandpit.

Its 21, school is back on after 2 days off. Some towns around us are still taking today off from school. We had a blizzard with I think I read a foot of snow. Its piled up everywhere.

Warmer here today than it was yesterday...will go up to a high of 38F/3C. Possible icing tonight, rain tomorrow. Should finish melting the remaining snow/ice from a few days ago.

It reached the low twenties today but no snow. I've got myself a cold and so basically stayed inside except for a quick trip to the "dollar" store for some cold medicine.

I guess more snow is expected Sunday and Monday. Hopefully, now too much.

Its 17 but wind is blowing again so its COLD!!!!! Partly sunny. :)

It snowed last night. Watching everyone get stuck in the ditch was funny.
