I went back to read about the Armistice Day Blizzard because Paul Douglas brought it up on local radio this morning....... and they didn't have all the forecasting going on that we have now. It started out a nice balmy day like today. Looking out the window now, I can't believe it nor can I imagine if people were trying to duck hunt or if they had gone out in their regular work shoes with no boots, etc. This blizzard is not something we routinely see. One grandkid has already had her power flicker and internet out in the northern metro.
