We're not in the watch area in this part of the state, at least not for now. Hopefully we just get rain. The snow from Thursday just melted today.

Eh...yikes! I have to work through mid-week, and my driveway involves a couple of hilly inclines.
Seldom do I call in for any reason; hopefully I won't have to.

Just go to noaa.gov and put in your zip code. Then you can check your own weather warnings if you dont' live in the Louisville area. The radar on intellicast.com shows where the mix line and the ice line is. Look at the upper right hand corner of the radar and click on "show animation" That will put the radar in the loop. I'm looking at Kentucky-Bowling Green region for my area.

LOL - The first thing I thought of when I saw the thread title was "Not Work Safe." I gotta quit spending so much time on the intrawebz.
We're looking at freezing rain later this afternoon--temperature has dropped more than 20 degrees in the last six hours. The good news is that it's going to turn to sleet and snow.

The only thing I'm worried about with all this ice coming is our new (to us) house. First time I've lived in an all electric house! if the power goes out I know we'll get a little chilly! Wish I had kept my kerosene heater when I moved down here! lol
