More than 25 million people across much of the central and northwestern US are under wind chill alerts. Heavy snow is expected today in several states including Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and most of Minnesota -- where the high temperatures will remain below zero, according to the National Weather Service. This week, more than 80% of the Lower 48 will experience temperatures below freezing, with cities as far south as Atlanta, Houston and Orlando currently included on that list. Forecasters are also predicting some in the Midwest could experience their coldest Christmas Day in nearly 40 years, with air travelers likely facing cancellations and delays.
 


 
 

*Grandhunks #1 &# 3 had a 6 hour delay yesterday before catching a different airline to join us. Monday, GH#2 arrived at the airport at 10 am for an 11 am flight to OC on SW, was delayed all day until all SW flights for the next three days were cancelled at 6 pm. An 8 hour wait alone, he called his boss as he has work on Tuesday. We picked him up and went to eat. He will leave Tuesday on a different airline. Meanwhile...


 

Our hero, Superman!

Here we heard of the snow storms and the temperatures far below freezing in the US. In my region it is too warm for winter, all snow melted away except in the high mountains. That means no skiing which is not so nice for tourism. The weather is going crazy all over the world - but it's not the weather alone .....
The positive thing about this is that you can enjoy being together with the boys a bit longer.

Thank you, Elenor. Yes, we feel very blessed to be together. Jake went home this morning and Jordan, Zack and I will fly home tomorrow. It will be good to be home, but the stay here has beeen great/

Gosh, I sure got behind checking out your work. Catching up though. I like the effects you used on Zelinsky's portrait. :-)
