They've preemptively shut the power off to our entire neighborhood and SCE says it may stay off until Thursday.  Just booked the wife and daughter a hotel room.  I'll stay home in the dark with the animals.  No wifi, no power, no heat, gotta keep the fridge closed.  But I'll have a hot shower as the gas will still work.  But the furnace requires power, so no heat.

Counterpoint: unlimited, uninterrupted fapping.

Plus, 80 mph Santa Ana winds blast furnace fire will take care of that ‘no heat’ part.   

Also, you could take the pets to your boat and watch the fires from off the shore.

Thus storm on Dallas is going to be messy. It’ll snow, sleet, and when light precip be freezing rain. 
 

Pro tip from the north: do not shovel any snow - let the entire event play out so you don’t have an ice rink. The snow provided traction and catches the ice. In 2007 we had a storm that alternated all three. 3” snow, 4” sleet, then freezing rain. It was on Valtine!s Day. Google to see the impact of these.

You know your house better than I, but our gas water heaters crapped out when the power went out.

Our stove worked, with a match.

Uhh, have you looked north in the last 10 mins? Massive fire in San Gabriels right now.

Already about 4 inches on the ground in WiseCo. Drive from DFW wasn't bad, just idiots that were going slower than they needed to. OMG, it's snowing! There were a couple spots that could have been blizzard worthy if the wind was blowing.

Weather is looking like it's gonna be around 32 all day in DFW and then plunge and stay cold for a while. Looking like it's gonna be icy as hell up there, wonder what all will be disrupted

Lucky for me I get to go to the airport in the morning.

LFG!
