So, no power at home, no power at the office. Mike, Kyle and I have been hopping around from hotspot to hotspot to get work done. While a wardriving workday is conceptually rather badass, it's really quite annoying, especially considering that most of the company servers are now down, and Kyle's scrambling to get them back up

What?? WTF happened?

[amzrigh]

High-altitude warm front and a low-altitude cold front. It's coming down rain and freezing when it hits. Powerlines are down all over the place.

Holy crap. O_O

Is this a common occurrence where you live? I've never heard of anything like that before.

I don't remember this happening in the few years I've been here, though colliding fronts aren't that uncommon -- this is Tornado Alley, after all.

Trees and plants and things have an inch of ice on them, if not more. That's what's bringing the lines down, mostly. Also have trees falling and blocking streets. The icy plants look really pretty though. I took some pictures walking to work this morning, hopefully they turned out alright.

It's so fucking cool outside. @.@ Branches are falling like, all around our house, and the powerlines on Main street are a sight to behold. :D

You'll have to show me the pictures if they turn out alright :O
