Forgive me, it's actually my local news channel... but it's easy to see how I made the mistake! With this latest (and hopefully last) blast of winter weather being so serious, the meteorologists at WMC Action News 5 have been explaining the layers of ice, sleet, and snow we've gotten in light-hearted and creative - and food-themed! - fashions. Pictured on the right is Andrew Kozak, who referred to the "winter weather lasagna" plaguing the Mid-South all morning; and on the left is Ron Childers, with a demonstration the station dubbed "severe cereal alert," that you can watch here: www.wmcactionnews5.com/Clip/11199715/watch-ron-childers-d...
As for myself, I didn't have school today or power for about four hours. I'm just glad it came back on as early as it did, because we're expected to break a 95-year-old record low in the area tonight. My spring break is safe - the three previous make-up days were added onto Saturdays and the end of the year - but today and tomorrow have nowhere to go except more Saturdays, according to the school board, because of graduation dates for seniors. None of us wants more than two weeks of six days of school, so now we're all hoping the state department of education will honor the law that states school days missed while under a state of emergency can be waived. Fingers crossed!
In the meantime, I'm looking forward to continuing retail-based pictures over weather-based ones this Saturday with more OfficeMax uploads and vacation photos in celebration of spring break next weekend. Have a good one and stay safe!
