Another good use for an old crockpot is in the chicken enclosure on low setting to keep their water from freezing up👍👍 I’ve even seen them being used with straw in them for chickens to nest in,the couple used to get everyone brought into their local second hand store and they worked well in the colder months and use very little power on the low setting
We had an Ice Storm in Connecticut in 1973, there was 2 inches of ice on everything, nothing was moving and power outages were beyond crazy. I was driving a tow truck and rescuing police officers from their cars, we had put chains on all 4 tires so I was able to get around. The wrecker I was driving was 6 wheel drive.
We're supposed to have a snowstorm starting Wednesday night. It remains to be seen how much we get. The freezing rain is supposed to be south of us. Hopefully, there are no power outages. I won't be going to work even though I'm just up the street from my job.
Hmmmm. Your outdoor sponge baths just got postponed. Hope your gasoline and propane holds out. If it runs out? You may have to move into a building that has a wood stove. Been there, done that.
So in 2011, Washington State, the western side, also experienced this. We had branches going front pinkie size to about 3 inches all around. My parents were out of power for over seven days. The inside of the house 32°. Trees broke all over. We lost lots of trees on the highways. It sounded like gun shots going off, but it was branches snapping and breaking. Transformers blew all around... it was crazy, so yep, I know what you are going threw.
Ed, welcome to the south. Stay safe, snow is rare, more often and more destructive is ice. Stay healthy, safe and warm. sounds like it may be a four dog night.
We only had a coating of snow in Westchester County (near the I-95) in NY that I cleared off earlier in the day but the melted snow converted to ice. Be careful out there.
lol that road looks like a glacier is gonna slide downhill at anytime lol it’s beautiful and dangerous y’all I’m in NW GEORGIA expecting the worst it’s 29 f my cabin neighbor is snowed and iced in trees down up at my off grid cabin I wished I was there all of the firewood and the full 500 gallons of propane in my tank are calling me if I was only there I’d feel better about getting thru this shit lol we’re good here too at my every day home !!
It's not over yet. This is just the beginning. Many many days of snow and bitter cold coming. It looks like you're buried in snow and ice already. It's going to become hard as a rock tonight. Solid ice. 😢
Yes the first day it was fluffy snow.We should have cleared then because it stopped then sleet and then snowed on top.My driveway is like a big Lego brick of ice.
We had an ice storm a few years ago that damaged the trees, no power nearly two weeks. The sad thing is the damage to the trees has continued, our yard had a lot of shade but not now which has increased the electric bill for air conditioning in Summer. Sad how the trees continue to decline.
Wow it looks beautiful but as others have said be careful walking around. We're supposed to get some wintry mix here in Alabama later this week possibly freezing rain maybe snow. The freezing rain is the bad stuff, it would be nice to see some snow. Stay safe and stay warm.
Take note now of the trees that are hanging over buildings and infrastructure so you'll know which ones to trim come spring.
Just gave a stir to the Crockpot filled with chicken and dumplings. Pull up a chair around the wood stove and thaw out.

Hey.....it was an ice storm (1998) that got me into prepping!!! Empty pantry, no backup heat, no power for 27 days....and I said NO....never again!!!
Hi Ed it's beautiful but dangerous as well so stay safe & stay warm
Been through 3 ice storms, 1 lasted 3 days and was horrific.

ED--- INVEST IN A SET OF GOOD TIRE CHAINS THEY SAVED MY BACON A TIME OR TWO AND i GOT A 4x4 PICK-EM UP TRUCK!!!
Direct Weather says a monster blizzard is heading your way and ending up through cny to Maine 😮 Hunker down n keep the wood dry !
There's more snow coming, get those Trees into the house for the next 3 weeks!
How’d the chickens do in the ice?
Ice and snow here, but no fog....could it be some of that strange fog people are reporting?

How are your chickens doing?
Didn't know you had a job
Yeah, what kind of job?
Hmmmm. Your outdoor sponge baths just got postponed. Hope your gasoline and propane holds out. If it runs out? You may have to move into a building that has a wood stove. Been there, done that.
Gotta clean the solar panels for when the sun starts shin

I'm in south Central mo. We only got about 1/2" of ice, I've spent the last two days clearing down trees off our township roads. Fun times😁👍
@@clanwatkins howdy from Booger county
Houses like Mark's that are nestled in the tree lined areas are in peril in an event like this. Be careful walking the property.
Ed, welcome to the south. Stay safe, snow is rare, more often and more destructive is ice.
Stay healthy, safe and warm. sounds like it may be a four dog night.
Wow, every inch is covered in ice. That was quick.

Please keep safe. Stay away from those trees.
Prayers the puppies and Hella stay warm and fed and water and comfortable.
God bless you and family
Hope no trees fall on any buildings
NOT fog, it's a nuclear winter!!!
Are Steve and the chickens OK?
When do you think you’re going to be able to get a tiny house put in like the one in NY. The wood stove would be good for you. Stay warm.
You need a snowmobile
Ice is the worst. Good to be off grid.

CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH
The icey snow is so pretty and so scary all at once.
Keep yourself safe
Can hear the crunch with every step. We got lucky in this time Pa with only snow but ice in MD and below. Beware of the fog

Keeeeyaaaw thankfully not quite as bad down here in Booger county Missouri, all my solar panels gonna need a good melt

Enjoy. A few days off.
Wow! 😮
Love the winter wonderland look
Holy moly!
Wish it would snow & ice here in Queensland! Need a reprieve from the near constant 40°C heat & humidity
Interesting huh,,thought you were getting away from that kind of weather😅
Now we know the answer to the age old question if a tree falls in the forest does it make a noise....lol
Good time to stay in and clean 😂 that’s what I do and then a nap 😂
Better than hurricanes
ice and chem-fog ...good times
Oh dear
Wow
