Morning again everyone. Just another work day but I'm working from home today. Wind was ferocious last night and is still very windy outside. House has been making sounds I've never heard before. Snow flurries are trying to change back over to rain currently. No accumulation on the ground but there's some snow in the house roof ridges. 51k without power in SE Michigan.



^ This was Lake Michigan yesterday on the SW Michigan shore near St. Joseph.

Hi `Matt & `all,
That's a beautiful picture `Matt. There's beauty to find even during the bad times. I've never been to any of the great lakes, but I hope to in my future.

Thanks for sharing Wish everyone a great new day and a reminder to be thankful if you are safe & have food/shelter/power etc 4-Sure.....Oh & a Chevy Monte Carlo

Peace/Happiness 2 `all,

Good Morning everyone Hope everyone is doing great today. Hope everyone is safe & sound. Stumpmi. Got any pictures of the snow you guys got ? I want to tease a friend of mine in Romulus,Mi. Hi Space how the weather around you now ? Back to normal ? Like to hear from Jen and see if she's OK. I think Sandy was headed right for her area yesterday . She might not have power !!!. Were not getting anything here in MN no wind No **** no Rain. When I got off of work. I thought my Monte was missing. And someone replaced it with a WHITE one . But it was just frost all over her. By the time I got home. She was back to being RED again . OK hope everyone has a great day.

Rick, we didn't get that much snow lol. It did snow but nothing stuck to the ground here. There is a slushy layer on the cars and a little snow buildup in the roof ridges of the houses. I'm surprised we still have power with how windy it's been *knock on wood*. Power outages now up to 56k in SE Michigan.

Semi trucks were having a hard time keeping in the lanes on the highway while I was making my way home late last night. Friend of mine posted the below pic from yesterday afternoon and that pretty much sums it up for all trucks I saw yesterday.
