Eric in the Ozarks :" We’re getting freezing rain at 1:45 pm today. Too slick to walk up hill to get the mail.
Supposed to be back to 40-45 F on Monday. We’ll live."

Problems reported with freezing rain in the Ohio River valley, and comming this way.
It sounds like really slick conditions coming to me in Western NY
Supposed to get to mid-40's with rain and fog during the overnight, followed a return to freezing weather return for tomorrow.
My main concern , up north, is freezing rain will take down overhanging tree limbs and cut power while online.
Since I don't have battery back-up, it looks like an early night to go to bed tonight.
The last I heard, this front is running almost due Eastward, affecting the NYS Southern Tier, and into New England.
The blessing is that you can slide into your home and be safe and warm.

BOOOOOOOOO. Yep, it’s all smurry out right now. I need to top off the hens food and water before it gets slippery. We are well provisioned and don’t really need to go anywhere until Monday, so will be staying in. Probably get the fire lit.

I visited Buffalo, NY when I was selling fuel to Great lakes steamships that called for iron ore in Duluth-Superior. American Steamship was based there at the time. Good people.

We lived in the Twin Cities area at the time and I could make Buffalo and come back the following day via Northwest.

Back when I was in college, a girlfriend was taking a session at Rutgers and I drove out to pick her up and bring her home. While we were that far east, I saw in the paper that Bob and Ray were appearing at a local NYC theater and urged her to go with me.

We went with a half dozen of her friends and I laughed my head off at the monologues. She understood none of it.
