It amazes me how trees and bushes are so resilient. I've seen them buried under multiple feet of snow or like in your case a lot of ice, and come back. As long as the tree branches don't crack and break, hopefully you'll be OK.

I just returned from a walk. We're right at 40°F with a cold northwest wind. Ha ha, very few folks out.
Another cool and dreary day in Ohio. Mid 40s with a misty rain and some fog. But, they say the sun will shine again later today. Some more chores around the house. Probably a week project....and then on to the next one.
Everyone have a good Wednesday.

Good morning D, nasty day here in the Berg. We are forecast for 2-4 inches of rain tomorrow, looks like OEC could get more than that!
Had breakfast for supper last night, scrambled eggs with Velveeta cheese in them, bacon, sausage, gravy and coffee! Mrs. M was well pleased with her supper when she got off work!!! Cooking a Flat Iron Steak for tonight!!!
Has any of the D, got a survey card from the Associated Press? It says it's a "nonpartisan" study to understand the views of voters. Told Mrs. M it was just a way to get you on every e-mail list in the country, but they will sent you $5 for doing it! If anybody gets one let me know, so I can see if the pin numbers match what I have.
I hope the D has a great day, going to try and do one thing positive for today!!!

Heavy rain coming in tonight and into Friday morning. 2-4+ inches expected with potential flooding along the Ohio River. Strong winds as well throughout Thursday. At least this will speed up the leaf raking, maybe even blow most of them to my neighbors yards.
As bad as I hate snow storms, they pale in comparison to an ice storm. We was without power for 2 weeks due to one, talk about stir crazy.Update on ice weather. First 2 pictures is of my poor little tree and neighbors tree. Last picture is of wife's yellow rose bush.
Good luck and stay safe.
I agree. We lost our power for 8 days during the ice storm of 2009. It actually felt warmer outside than it did inside the house during the day.
We were only out of power for about 5 hours on Monday so, things aren't so bad. However, my trees will probably need some help. Below is one in the backyard last year in snow. The next one is this morning's picture of the same tree.
This tree need an enima!

I am 74 years old and have never been contacted.
Maybe you can build a fire under it to melt the ice!We were only out of power for about 5 hours on Monday so, things aren't so bad. However, my trees will probably need some help. Below is one in the backyard last year in snow. The next one is this morning's picture of the same tree.

ditto here except it is mid 50's.
Man, Warrior Cat it has done a number on your trees.
Don, I will copy you post and email it to Ymmot.

Wow! On a positive note at least the power wasn't off long enough to lose any food.We were only out of power for about 5 hours on Monday so, things aren't so bad.

Here is an article from WAVE news in Louisville. It is about Spencer County. The first interviewee is my son Lee.
Spencer County Trump supporters look for another landslide
Trump took 75.6 percent of the vote, making Spencer County one of the reddest spots in a deeply red state.

I love breakfast for supper. Mrs. hates it. So the only time I get it is when she's off and gone somewhere. Plus I think it's easier to fix with less cleanup.
Happy 26th Birthday to this pair. How time flies.
When I was a kid, I absolutely hated breakfast food, now it's my favorite meal of the day. I've come to realize that a lot of the things I hated as a kid are the the things I like the most now.

Yeah, and I have plenty of ice for my drinks.
I know some of you guys will get more rain than us, over the next 24 hours, but we are supposed to get 1 1/2 inches. A lot for us, since we are pretty wet already.
Yeah supposed to rain here most of the night and all day tomorrow. Just looked at the radar and there's a bunch coming up from the Gulf coast. We haven't had too much here so it's not too wet here.
When I checked the radar it looked like the Northern part of the band of rain over OK way was pink, so wonder if warrior is getting more ice. Hope not...think they've had enough.

Radar looking rough. Guess rain is what we’re in for.
No, temperature is above freezing right now and the winds have died down a bit so, I think we're good.
The soaking of the Derby City is beginning.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 41°F and clear. Today's high may hit 64°F. Dry until at least sometime next week. Loving this weather. I guess my folks up in KY and TN are getting soaked by a tropical storm.
That's all I've got for now. Wishing happiness and good health to all our fellow D-League members.

Up and at 'em for an hour or so. No surprise...still dark. And rainy. According to the old weather app on the laptop, and Miss Google who's sitting in here in the living room with me, over on one of the side tables (she sits on a table and not the couch) it's about 48 out right now. In for an all day rain it looks.
Morning Legionnaires!
40° right now with a high of 55° expected. Winds 25 mph so, drying will happen once all ice is melted.
Will get out today and teach karate and then get back for some research. Going to take the next 2 days looking at the state questions and what my local politicians are pushing. Won't vote straight ticket because there are one or two rebubs who are pretend conservatives here that people like but, when it comes to their support of conservative issues they almost always go the other way. One particular one is a former teacher who has voted for every local tax increase or bond that has been brought forward. We have the second highest tax rate in this state.
Well, prayers for those that are in need of it: With God hands may he heal those who hurt, and may he especially heal a country who needs his guidance in this time of turmoil. Keep this country on the right path and allow us to remain free. In Jesus's name, Amen.
Ya'll be cool.
Well folks good morning raining here, supposed to get anywhere from 2 to 5 inches. Headed to work soon and then to see about jury duty. Looks like a 71 year old forgetful man with asthma could get out of jury duty in this Covid world! Today is just the meeting to prepare us for November and December. Wish me luck! I only work Thursday and Friday's making deliveries for a local office supply store. Going to be a wet one for sure!
This morning's haul. Life is good.
No Sir,
Have faith and remember the last time how wrong all were!
Oh, Good Morning all, prayers up to a brother Sir. May God intervene and bare all for you. Bless you all in the name above all names. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. Yes, there is something about that name! -G. Gaither...

In suburban Ashland, the rain started about midnight and will continue all day, tonight, and till late afternoon on Friday. Looks like we get cold temps after that for a couple of days, and then it moderates. Sun will be out next week. Everyone remember to set your clocks on Saturday night, and "fall back". My appt with the neurosurgeon is at 10:30. I'm afraid they will call my back elective and not operate until there is a vaccine. I guess we'll see.
Good morning D-League. 59° and raining here in Eastern Kentucky. Looking like a good weekend for a pot of chili and some tv.
Mr. Tapemaster, what part of the state you from?
Good morning D, looks like we have had 1.5 so far and it's supposed to rain the rest of the evening. Question about the I-phone, on the weather app, does the rain total reset after midnight? We had .7 when I went to bed last night and was still raining.
I hope the D has a great day and prayers are lifted up!!!
This cool weather coming in Mrs. M ask me to make some Chicken Noodle soup, got a new recipe.
4- Boneless chicken breast
2- 15oz. Cans chicken broth
1-stick of butter
2-cans of cream of chicken
24oz frozen egg noodles> we use a dry Mrs. Millers egg noodles from Kroger
Cook the chicken, soup, butter and broth in a crock-pot on low for 6-7, take the chicken out, shred, put it back in the crock-pot, add the noodles and cook another 2 hours.
I do a little bit different, I grill or bake the chicken while the broth, soup and butter in cooking in the crock-pot then shred the chicken it after it's done add the chicken and noodles and it done in about 3 hours.
If I just make one batch I use about 1/2 the bag of noodles.
The first time I made this I used the whole bag of noodles, took some to one of my mom's best friends and she called me later on and told me that was the best chicken and dumplings she had ever had, after that I cut it back to 1/2 a bag. Great southern comfort food! Hope you enjoy D!

Had chicken and noodles last night. Not a soup, but enough broth where it's kind of like it. Along with mashed potatoes.
But I have to admit, your recipe and the way do the chicken (grilled for me) sounds even better.
It is a very rainy 64.9°F. We have already got 1.79" so far. It started yesterday about 3pm.
I got my flu shot yesterday through a drive in service the hospital had. I thought it would be a long ordeal but instead we whizzed right through. You roll down the window and they get you information then drive into a tent and they give you the shot. You never have to get out.
You all stay dry if you are in the path of Zeta.
