We are.
First rain, then ice, then sleet and it's starting to turn to snow. Had it started with snow I would have been happier, but now we'll have a layer of ice under all of the snow we are expecting.
DH went to light a fire in the fireplace this morning in case we lose power from the ice. The smoke backed up into the house and we had to open up a lot of windows and put fans in the windows blowing outward to get the smoke out. I thought for a while we were going have to evacuate the house. We had to carry a burning log across the living room to get it outside. No more fires until we have the chimney checked by a professional.
For everyone that is being hit by this ugly storm, stay safe and warm.
