I was surprised we never lost power

or internet , considering just how long and powerful this storm was

started Wednesday morning , , and just now this afternoon , things are settling down

with the 50 MPH winds and the -50 below wind chill for two of those straight , we never once lost power , not even a flicker, so I was pleasantly surprised

still cold here today , about -8 below , with another shot of 2-3 inches of snow tomorrow , then back up into the mid 20's by mid week , that'll feel like a heat wave
