Unusually warm here- 42F and raining. It started out as a bit of snow this morning and developed into rain.

The cold storm that is about to sweep across the US reminds me of what we endured in Alaska a couple of weeks ago. Not so much snow bit heavy winds and zero temperatures. It was wicked, especially this building I live in is drafty and the furnace couldn't keep up. At least, the power didn't go out- we'd have had to vacate.

Watchng the developments with my heart in my mouth- stay safe and warm, everybody.

And in Australia, get the heck out of Dodge!
