Christmas 2017 to January 5, 2018

Have had a natural gas home generator for 16 years. One of the best purchases we have ever made.

Well what happened?

Wow....I mean seriously. 3 separate winter events within 4 to 5 days? My goodness that Christmas week is just looking nuts! Not to mention all of Louisiana not getting out of the 20's and 30's for almost a week???

Here it is, the morning of the 22nd, to the 28th.

Have we seen anything like that since the frigid Christmas week weather which started with a cold front storming through on the evening of 21 Dec 1989?  By morning we were in the teens.  By lunch time on 22 Dec 1989 it was snowing so heavily they closed down the ferries and it was nigh impossible to use any overpass, much less trying to cross the river bridges.  Pipes busted everywhere and we didn't get above freezing for about a week.  Another frigid Christmas Eve I recall was 1983.  We really haven't seen that kind of cold in a long time.

And Thibodaux gets in on the action again. This would be insane if it verified. But we will be in Belle Chasse visiting my sister in law Christmas day.
