Yeah, I saw that photo too. I thought it was beautiful. The Korean War Memorial always looks haunting when covered in snow. It almost brings it to life.

"So the garage was open to the frigid temperatures all night."

Don't mean to compare Texas to Boston but from where I come from the neighbor would have called to let me know.

Ice is pretty good insulation, BION.

Are these homes on the water?

A little below where the woman is standing looks like it might be a bulkhead, you can see the ice has broken off a bit. The caption also says the town is located on a peninsula, so it would be safe to assume there's water nearby. :-)

Probably down here in 40-degree Florida.

Make that 24-degree Florida (Belleview) earlier today.

Most likely nobody saw it. In sub-zero temps, with howling winds and blowing snow, at night, most people aren't walking around outside or looking out their front door or windows to see what the neighbors are up to.

Gosh, I remember Alicia. The hurricane was not that bad compared to being without electricity for 7 days.

This is salt water frozen spray. Look and see the bulkhead dock.

Yes, but if we did...Seattle, Tacoma, Everett and everything along the I-5 corridor would shut down for days.

Not that it would necessarily be a BAD thing...

Maybe so, but at least we don't have killer bees up here.

Oh, OK. Wouldn't necessarily call it a hell hole, though. :-P
