I'm in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Just got back from lunch after working for about
15-minutes trying to get my car door open that had been frozen shut from
the freezing rain. So it's started about 4-hours earlier than the
weatherman said it would. At least half of our production people have
left for the day to get home before the roads get too bad. I'll stay a
while longer because I don't live too far from work. Heard on the radio
that OG&E (Oklahoma Gas and Electric) has already put calls into other
states for some help. They're expecting a lot of downed power lines from
this storm...something I didn't want to hear.

Hey y'all, you're not filling us in on where you're at.
IIRC Steve Gregory is in OK but I'm unsure.
