Hi CHarlie
Looks like you dodged the bullet this time as they say. Depends on what you 
mean by bad conditions in reference to what hit the U.S. midwest. We didn't 
get a storm or any heavy snowfall but the current temp is -30F degrees and 
dropping. Been below normal the past two days and predicted to stay that way 
for the forseeable future. Global cooling strikes again.
