A powerful winter storm claims at least 11 lives across the US

11. We didn't get nearly as much snow as was in the forecast.

And the roads seem pretty clear. I was surprised at the relatively low activity on the 911 report, over the past two days. People must be paying attention. I think there were more problems north of Flint.

The wind seems to have died down but there are still some nasty gusts. The storm warning has changed to a weather advisory and it looks like the snow is almost done for the Flint area. There's a light snow shower going on, now, but the radar looks like things will clear up, soon.

I'm staying in. Some family is coming by for dinner tonight and tomorrow. Fortunately they don't live far. My brother is just going to stay here, tonight, since he'd be coming back tomorrow, anyway. The kitcats will love that. Gryff just LOVES my brother.
