Wow! Glad you are all safe! Sounds like this winter weather we have been having really crippled the southern states! In CT, we are pretty used to that white stuff and even ice storms sometimes, but even here in the NE states, ice stops everything cause no one can drive on that stuff for sure.
We have had a decent winter snow wise here but these insane low temps are out of control! We have had -10 to -20 but NEVER minus 35 or lower...wow, MN is REALLY getting hit with that arctic air mass.
