Hey North Georgians! How are you doing after

[Sister to TxTowelie]

Yesterday's storm?

I'm in Forsyth Co and we lost power for about six hours last night. The county does a great job keeping limbs from power lines, but there is no way to prevent trees from falling.

Still waiting for temps to rise so the ice will melt. I'm worried about a couple of trees breaking or falling.

Everyone okay?

1. Welcome Sister. I like your brothers posts.

7. Yes, he's a thoughtful poster.

Interesting articles.

2. I live just S of downtown ATL and we had rain.

I think up further north they had/have issues. My niece lost power in Sugar Hill (Gwinnett.)

3. I am in Canton and we lost power last night

around 9 pm. Finally got it back on today around 1 p.m. But because of the weight of the ice on a tree, a huge branch came down on the house. Luckily, it did not break through the roof.

6. I'm hoping the wind lays down until this stuff

Melts. The long needle pines in my backyard are carrying a lot of extra weight.

4. In West Cobb here, and got

exactly nothing. (Except, ok, an "emergency" trip to the grocery by hubby so that we'd have the necessary lay-in of Chardonnay.) My temp ap from three days ago said we'd be seeing a low of one (ONE!) degree on Wednesday. I guess meteorology isn't rocket science. We're way too hard on that groundhog.

5. My weather app has me down for "8" on Thursday

morning. I wonder if school will be delayed a couple of hours? Oh well, that forecast will probably change again before I go to bed.

Kids in Forsyth Co ISD have to make up snow days if there are more than 2 with an online learning program.

Glad you avoided the nasty stuff.
