Bad here In texas, the cold has descimated the state. I still went to work, I've had a lot of practice driving on packed snow from my childhood. DRS Technologies did close today because of the pending second winter blast. Damm, I wanted to work, almost caught up. Lost touch with a co worker, he lost power ≈ two days ago, and I don't even know if he's alive. I'm sure his phone is dead. My fear now is they'll do something stupid like run pertoleum-based heaters in their house. That'yll kill them for sure. If the precipitation overnight wasn't ice like they predicted, I'm going to try to drive to his house, maybe get him to a home depot for a generator and space heater. Texas is barely handing one, but temps. above freezing promised by Friday.
