Same situation here - just dug out the hand crank radio and lantern - not looking forward to existence in the cold dark.

5° and sunny. A nice day for a morning walk and the afternoon looks good as well.

I went to the local grocery store last night to pick up some items for the upcoming snowmageddon. I should have taken some pictures -- I've never seen the shelves so empty. I thought I might pick up some salad, but the only items left in the produce section were bags of kale. It was the same story throughout the store -- the pasta and sauces were almost gone, canned tuna and other goods very picked over, etc.

Anyway, I was able to find enough to give us a comfortable margin. We're not supposed to get very much ice this far north, so the chances of long term power outages are a bit lower (I hope). On the other hand, the latest forecasts are for about 16 inches of snow, and we're not expected to climb above the freezing mark until the first week of February, so it's still going to be rough sledding (in a manner of speaking).

Today's high was 35°F and it was very sunny. It was a bit windy, but tolerable. The cold front should move in tonight so tomorrow will be much colder, setting the stage for Sunday's snow. Stay warm and safe out there!
