Where is RIC?? It's freezing here too. Jumped right over us. I feel left out. (though maybe we hit 33/34 yesterday? Everything is still covered in hard, solid blocks of ice, so it's certainly not been far over the mark)
20 and dry in RIC. There were a few tiny flakes floating earlier... nothing more. Cold. Dry.
Unrelated - is there a thread going about next weekend yet?
Calls have been coming in for a few days from electric utilities to top off massive diesel tanks. Large facilities in the VA/MD/DC area are preparing for "curtailment" (when they get their gas supply cut off and have to switch to diesel). From an energy supply stand point, the grid is expected to be quite overloaded. We're all watching your discussions VERY closely and doing our best to prepare and keep your lights on... These threads have been WILDLY helpful. THANK YOU!
