Our power hung in there until 2:15 AM. Generator has been running since then. Apparently much of North Central AR is without power.
Local snow totals triple previous daily record
Heavy snowfall over the last 24 hours has caused a previous snow total record to be broken. A snow total of nine inches has been recorded at KTLO, Classic Hits and The Boot studios, the official reportingwww.ktlo.com
To add insult to injury, we lost power at 11:15 PM, last night. Whole house propane generator running, still. Guessers saying on and off light snow/showers till 9 AM.
Guess what I'll be doing all day?

Not here, power went out 4 times briefly between 8 and 8:30 last night, hasn't been out since.

Our power came back on for 10 minutes around 9 AM. Still not back in service. 
Been outside cleaning the back steps (emergency exit from the MB) and plowing the gravel drive. It's wet and heavy. The Polaris Ranger SxS will only handle so much of that, at a swipe. It's back and forth, uphill, plow width at a time. Got up to the gate, done. After lunch/dinner (baked Salmon, baked taters & coleslaw) will finish plowing the level surface to the highway.

Having somewhat rare thunderstorms here right now. Normally I am in the mountain villages today. I would be in a serious issue if I was up there.
Going to be some major flooding in the poor neighborhoods if this keeps up.

Called the coop cause they said power has been restored. Yeah, for ten minutes. Said it might be as long as the weekend before they get to it.
Anyway, plowing done. Snapped the winch cable at the hook, near the mail box. Had to walk back to house, get tools and cable clamp to jury rig, to finish.

The coop is pulling in crews from out of state. Not surprised that it may take several days. Not at all happy, but not surprised.Called the coop cause they said power has been restored. Yeah, for ten minutes. Said it might be as long as the weekend before they get to it.
Doubt that I'll get propane in the foreseeable future for what I paid last Aug.
Week before Christmas I paid $2.29, yesterday I topped off for the storm and paid $2.59. Was surprised, expected far higher in winter.

Better than our gasoline. Paid $2.99 at Costco on December 27th. Yesterday filled up at Costco $3.39. The "Carbon Tax" in WA that took place January 2nd, was not supposed to increase gasoline taxes. Right.
