Incoming!

I'm watching the weather closely today.  Unless the storm track shifts Indianapolis is right smack in the path of a monster of a storm.  We are looking at .5 to 1 inch of ice followed by several inches of snow.  Everything should start sometime this evening and then goes until nearly Wednesday evening.  Right now I'm trying to decide if I'm going to get permissions to work from home - providing I have power - or if I'm just going to say screw it and take a couple of floating holidays for tomorrow and Wednesday. 

One thing I do know - I do NOT drive on ice.  Hell, I don't even try to walk on ice. 

Want to know a secret?  I am absolutely terrified of walking on ice.  Seriously, I get all shaky and just want stand still and cry.  So nope, if we get what they are predicting I will be staying inside where it is safe(er).  And all the weather channels are predicting the same thing so it looks like we're in for a major ice smackdown. 

Gives me the heebies just thinking about it. 
 

IceAggedon Approaches

Checked the radar and all the blue and pink (YIKES!  Pink Bad) are quickly approaching Indianapolis. 

I've already told the boss man that if there is any ice I will be working from home.  I do not do ice. 

The latest weather hype is calling this a "potentially catastrophic" storm.  Depending on how the storm tracks Indianapolis could get an inch or more if ice by Wednesday evening - OR - a third of an inch of freezing rain and sleet tonight followed by a foot of snow tomorrow.  Really it all depends on which way this thing tracks.  As the first wave is pretty much here already I'm going to guess that here in the city we're going to get mostly ice while the big snow is going to stay north. 

Fingers crossed that the power stays on.
