    We have power cuts often enough that it seems like a worthwhile expense to my wife and me, Matt, particularly since we plan to age in place here in the Kentucky River Palisades. We're also looking at Kohlers. I have a Lexington company, Greenbox Home Services, coming out when the roads clear(!) to give an installation estimate. They sell and service both brands.

    We're still getting some light snow here. Ours went off last night I suspect somewhere between 11:00 P.M. and midnight. I woke up sometime during the night and the house was very cold. I looked at my clock by my bed and it was off and I thought "oh no". It was probably off for about 10 hours and is back on now thank the Lord.

    Here's to a little sunshine tomorrow to help with the ice in the trees!

    By way of explanation, I’m Minnesotan who met, married and settled in the commonwealth with a Kentucky girl. The thought of driving in snow is terrifying to her too. I, on the other hand think about what fun can be had in the really deep powder (no, this isn't me. I just wish it were ;-))

    I have been out once in the past 2 weeks. Getting cabin fever. Hope to get out tomorrow.

    Official snow total at the Louisville airport was 5.9" snow fall. Weather dude on the news said the reason the projected totals were so off was because the temp in the upper atmosphere changed like 1-2 degrees so we got more sleet instead of snow. Oh well, whatever. Side roads are a mess. A friend that lives near Evansville IN got 14" at his house.

    Glad you got power back Matt

    Stay safe
