What three days of freezing weather does to us.

in freeze •  7 years ago 

Today, Friday, in SouthEast Louisiana, it will finally warm up above freezing, and we will find out how much damage has occurred to plumbing pipes, citrus and other fruit orchards, other infrastructure. Our region is simply not prepared to exist for three days of solid freeze. Few state or parish entities are prepared with sand, salt, or equipment for frozen roadways and bridges. For over two days, most highways have been closed to traffic. My homestead is a mush, but I have been preparing for such a time over a course of 25 years.
