Yes, we all got on each other's nerves. Some of us listened. Some of us dug our heels in. Some of us came in with an open mind. Some of us lamented being urban planners when we didn't go to school for that. Some of us had zesty commentary. Some of us kept our mouths shut.
I know of a few CMs asking NES right now for a spreadsheet of all the outages relevant to our areas. They replied that they are working on a solution to this request.
As the numbers are whittled down, some of the individual situations will be complicated. That's what happened after the tornado.

Major winter storm late Saturday into Sunday: Eastern NC and SE Virginia could see 8-12+ inches with 35-50 mph gusts creating near-blizzard conditions. Light fluffy snow will drift badly. If you're in these areas, prepare now.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

We are concerned with the temp drop that's going to start late this morning. Things may improve for a bit then get worse as winds increase and temps drop. Those with and without power should be thinking about their stay warm plan. Overnight low is 8°.

Latest HRRR believes liquid freezing rain will become more steady after midnight tonight and continue through the night and Sunday morning. Loop ends at 11am with freezing rain still falling. I I, for one, hope this is wrong.

Refresher on what we call "warm-nose Ned." Surface temps below freezing. A mile or so up, temps warm above freezing causing snow to melt. How strong that warm-nose is (because it kinda looks like a nose on graphs) determines sleet or freezing rain. If it's weak, sleet. If it's more pronounced, (1/2)

Something that doesn't get nearly enough attention: nonrefundable application and "administrative" fees just to be considered for an apartment.
I've heard from families who have spent hundreds—even thousands—of dollars on applications and are still without a home.
This is legalized extortion.

Upper air sounding shows 3 elements we're watching today. NED (warm nose), Dry Air Monster (he eats snow), and snow zone where snow is falling. Right now DAM is in charge. But soon he'll disappear and we'll get snow on the ground. Then, Ned will move to right, cross the freezing line.
