ok...now I feel really, really bad for gloating. I will go right in and turn off the air conditioning as a punishment! (NOT!) Seriously, though, you all stay safe and stay warm!

I have never seen the wind blow as hard as it did yesterday-it blew out a section of my privacy fence and broke it in 6 pieces. In Snowville it blew off part of the roof on 1 of Mom's buildings and 1 of the air circulators on top of her house but her power stayed on.
