    It started earlier this morning, it's been going on all day. Some trees came down or just the tops, we've been all sleet or freezing rain since Friday at some point.

    I won't hit the woods until next week or weekend, real dangerous in the woods.

    We have power back, I never hooked it up this last power outage, saving it for the long run.

    I talked with a person in Massena NY, they received more snow & sleet than freezing rain, what about your area?

    Ya. We got snow yesterday. Then sleet yesterday. Then freezing rain yesterday. Then you couldn't tell WTF it was for a while. Then freezing rain started again this morning while I was plowing. Today it has been sleet and freezing rain off and on. I would say we got 3-4 of a mix yesterday. Hard to tell because the last time I plowed, it snowed a little after I was done so I left it. Kids are loving the snow, but could not go out in this chit. Too many trees and .......

    The lights blinked when we were warming up dinner but the power stayed on so we ate good.

    I'm on way to check the oil level in the generator, I might need to top it off.

    West of us seems to be hit hard, almost 1300 people without power.

    Yes, I saw that on the news. I'm glad I put the chains on the Rhino, I might need it tomorrow or the next day if any of the pines fall across the driveway/skating rink.
