We were supposed to get an ice storm but we didn't, we just got a little bit of ice. Today is the first day it has gotten about freezing in several days. It has been so cold and so windy, the temps have been 15 and 16 and the wind chills 3 and 6 degrees, just way colder than what we are used to here in OK. We have the next 3 days above freezing then we get hit again with cold weather, the storm you are getting now will reach us by then. We are supposed to get ice and snow on Sunday. We lost heat on Monday, something wrong with the furnace, so with space heaters, the oven, bathroom heater, we were able to keep the temp at 50 in the house so the pipes wouldn't freeze until Tuesday when the guy came out to fix the furnace. I have had it jacked up to 75 since then, normally I am very conservative and have it on 65, but after being cold, I don't care anymore, LOL. This last storm moved in fast on Sunday afternoon, it was 80 degrees outside (yes 80) , I was outside cleaning the pool and DH and DD were outside pitching and about 3:00pm, all of a sudden the wind started blowing and the temp dropped about 20 degrees in a matter of 5 minutes then it just went downhill from there, the low that night went to the teens in just a matter of hours.
