User ID: 1215284 United States 02/01/2011 06:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have a 'grandma' up there OP, in S.C. Indiana. It's freaky how we missed this down here, literally by a hair! Quoting: Rock SoupKeep us updated, thanks. Okay. I'll pray for your granny if you pray for mine. Will do and thanks. Are you in Central IN? Yes. The sleet/freezing rain is getting bad. We have a propane heater w/cooktop and flashlights and stuff. But with the predicted windchills, it might be a rough ride if the power goes out. It looks scary on radar. I am worried for you all. I am happy to hear you are prepared. I could not get 'grandma' my mother to listen to me, but hopefully since she is in a retirement apartment complex she will be okay. I am guessing those folks will be higher on the list to restore power, but it's just a guess. I just missed this ice storm here back in 2009, as I had temporarily relocated to Nashville, TN. A few days after the ice storm as I drove back up here, (insert word or words as I could not find any at the time), I was in awe. It looked as if a devastating hurricane had come through. Destruction everywhere (this scene lasted for weeks). Nothing on the road. Mother Nature is one powerful force and NO, you do not mess with HER. My prayers are with all of you and please be careful with that heater, but I am confident you know that. All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. ~Arthur Schopenhauer |
