It all went outside in the snow . Put everything into coolers in the snow which lasted for several days and even when it melted it still stayed in the 40’s mainly 

Uhmm you failed to answer the question...

Yeah, as long as it’s warm enough inside not to freeze pipes… cooler weather is definitely an easier time to lose power.  Especially after an October snowstorm because it won’t be deep cold afterwards.  Just cold enough to put perishables outside in the snow.

I slept in several fleece jackets and winter hat. There a few days where my breath was visible inside the house towards the last couple days

Difficult to say without seeing a photo....Hopefully it is not a deer tick...

I don't think its a deer tick. This doesn't have the shape of a tick. I will try and catch a photo when I am outside tomorrow somehow. But I just did a google search (didn't try before because everytime you put something into google, the result usually is you're going to die). Anyways, I found a photo someone posted on Facebook and this kind of looks like it. The comments are no help

Since I am posting someone's finger, here is the link so they get credit

Figured @vortex95 would appreciate this SLC met using a photo of snowy mountains for the all-time hottest temperature since 1874… could’ve gone with flames and death, instead a tranquil April day photo of the Wasatch, lol.

 

I think the evidence grows that there is a population in NWS that just doesn’t like heat and doesn’t want to hear about it.  They lean less, and insults intelligence in a way, as tho we don’t see right through it…

They downplay it or mock it or do things like that because what’s really going on is their personal attitudes and perspectives overwhelm and it bleeds in - I get it no humans perfectly objective…

But it goes the other way too

I don’t care what these fucks feel  that don’t like hyperbole about heat and extremes tho.  

Guess what ? it is that bad and it needs to be hotly expressed no pun intended, because nobody is paying attention enough to what is clearly an existential threat.  We are in a physical mass extinction event, and there is no other culprit that science can physically connect that isn’tglobal warming.
Fuck it talking bricks

Well, that’s a hot deal on Tuesday

Nother night that night whence the temperature doesn’t drop very much

That October 2011 event makes you remember when "snow maps" were still a new thing, and Met offices didn't know how to use them exactly, especially in the shoulder seasons.  "Dumb guy snow output" ended up being too low.
