I never lost power, but I had a lot of tree damage to clean up. Those white pines fall apart like they are nothing when they get a little bit of weight on their branches.

I'm hoping that the sleet/snow mix we are getting over the next couple of days doesn't turn into what we dealt with last week.

I agree! The country had to clear our road there was trees down at both ends it sucked. Hell my landlord opened it up today with his tractor and plow, made all our neighbors happier then hell.

The school that I work at had a ton of white pines that had fallen branches. We were just about finished cleaning it up before this storm came in... Hopefully I will be able to make it in tomorrow to see what kind of damage we have.

Our power stayed on during this storm.

Sorry to read that you guy are having such miserable weather. The temp was 88 degrees here in s/w Arizona yesterday. This is certainly a crazy time.
