It continues. Now the governor has declared an emergency due to shortages of heating oil and propane. Recent storms have interfered with deliveries. HOS of fuel truck drivers has been suspended. Snyder Declares Emergency Over Propane Shortage LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder...

First the insulation we have, 8" of the pink rolled stuff, has to all come out. It is ruined, soaked. Then they MAY have to replace ALL the ceilings, except for one hallway, in the house. At the very least 4' in from each outside wall will have to be fixed. They believe doing the ceiling may be...

This one came from the SW, lots of Gulf moisture, then the cold joined the party at the same time. My roof took a real beating. Snow blowing up under the shingles, then the ice dams and water backing up under them. What a mess it is going to be. OK for now but the damage is done. The repairs...

I don't know what happened here. It would seem '78 was not confined to the US. We had the one and only big blizzard while we were in England that year. Could not get up to the base for 3 days. Heavy snow in Yorkshire is even more rare than here.

Not in my lifetime. Some say that a storm in 1978 was almost as bad. I was in England at the time so I missed that one. Lake effect snow on this side of the Lake is very rare. It takes a kind of Nor'Easter to get that. Even then we seldom get the combination of wind/temps and snow levels like we...

The damage to my house has exceeded 10K and it may go higher. It was a combination of many things. The main thing is that the kind of storm we had is very rare around here. This was unlike any I have seen around before.

I would put NOTHING past ANY administration. They are all out only for their own power, glory and enrichment and would stop at nothing to achieve those goals.

It would appear that the "Storm of Jan, 2014" was worse than I thought it was. State Farm has activated it's disaster teams to help handle all the claims for damage. The adjuster I spoke with said this was one of the worst snow/cold events she has ever had to deal with.

I have been lucky enough to meet a local man, Lenard, who still has the original documents that were signed by his ancestors, when they ceded the land from north of Detroit down past Toledo to the US government. Someday those documents are going into a museum. Right now they are held by the family.

It's bad there too.

I have not looked outside but it is likely thick out here too.

Or even worse.

You would have to go back much further than LBJ to find the roots of the problems we are dealing with today.

It is hilarious.

Which now is providing a LOT of revenue in the form of natural gas. Some people's garbage is other's fuel.

Give it to me, I can fix it! It would be a wonderful place again. There would be no problem with the roads anymore, I would tear them out. No more slums. Gone. No crime, since I would know all of the 20-30 people who would be living here! Just great hunting, great fishing and great wetlands...

Heavy fog warning been posted for this area.

Watch for fog. This warm up is going to cause some really soupy stuff

Here or there?

85/15 conservative. The one question did not fit at all. I would NEVER go to NYC, other than for work, and have no interest in visiting Times Square OR the museum. NYC is just another waste of good wetlands. It was mildly fun to take, bogus of course, since many of the answers would be based...
