This picture is almost like it's out of some apocalyptic science fiction movie.

I live 55 miles north up the coast from St. Joe. It's extremely cold for this area. Wind chill temps hitting -30 to -35 for a few days now. Looks like some relief coming starting on Wednesday.

How do still have working water in your house?

In Dallas yesterday my pipes were frozen in my master bathroom and it was only 11 degrees (-4 windchill) here overnight. I can't imagine how basic things even work when it's -30, like running water...

I have city water. So far so good. The main lines I believe are buried 12-15' below the surface. So as long as frost doesn't get that deep, we're still drinking water and flushing the toilets. Furnance runs alot. Houses probably have more insolation here than in Dallas. Know anyone moving to warming climate like Ecuador???

This was taken by a friend of mine during calmer weather conditions. Looking through a hollowed out iceberg at Lake Michigan in Grand Haven, Mi. This is 20 minutes north up the coast from me.
