ICE and SNOW and SLEET Across the USA Power Outages Only Going UP and Airports Closed. Stay Warm, Stay Safe and IF You Have Power Give Thanks! Use It While U Got It!!

So far by state color coded.

Power outages on the rise...

From far away the state of the Winter  Storm.

Close up ...

This is current EURO 

Always good to get some thunder in the mix.

Personally, I woke up this morning to power being on and I said a prayer of thanks and got out of bed fast, took a hot shower and made fresh coffee and then used my frother :) and said a prayer of thanks! Use it while you got it so I'm here trying to get news and check what's going on and making a short post.

I have sleet on the ground.

Old pic, more sleet now.

I used to feel cheated by sleet.

I mean you know I want snow.

It's like fake snow ....

...looks like snow.

From nearby friend's house

But very okay with sleet this morning.

I'll just pretend it's snow ;)

ya know...

January 30th GFS

shows snow in Raleigh

(maybe)

EURO keeps it bit closer to the coast.

EURO a week from today....

Note the energy of the LOW

offshore low

Meanwhile I'm going back to the balcony and watch the wintry mix and enjoy my hot Nespresso with whipped cream ...

For now .... tho those outages moving East.

With prayers for everyone in the path of this storm to get through it with as minimal problems as possible and know Winter is just starting. February 2026 is forecast to be interesting.

Later...
