As someone currently into day 4 of no power due to an ice storm. Get lots of gas. A good generator. Heat source. Lots of food and water. Fill your tubs and get water for dishes and flushing the toilet.

Ahh, northern MI or CAN?
I am north of Toledo and it has been pouring for hours now. 😬

As much as I’d like to care, I don’t. You fuckers cause a lot of pain upstate so maybe you deserve yours.

Does flooding have an effect on fault lines? I hope flooding doesn't have an effect on fault lines
(Half sarcastic but also curious)

That is my personal doomsday: New Madrid wakes up.

The High risk area just expanded south by a LOT. This is looking seriously nasty.
And don't forget about the Day 4 Moderate for Saturday. Very active week. Stay alert and have multiple ways to get tornado warnings.

Yeah my husband's employer is canceling work tomorrow but adding Saturday. We are in the worst of it.

Tornado went over neighborhood this morning. Thankfully stayed in the clouds and didn’t drop down. Absolutely woke up when the sirens went off. Systems expected the next 4 days.

My parents are in the heart of that. But that's 300 miles from Appalachia

I apologize, I meant the Ohio River valley..

We will get this as freezing rain in QC, starting this evening. I expect some pretty bad power outages but nothing catastrophic. Freezing rain events aren't as bad when they occur in Spring, as the ice typically melts faster and tree branches are more flexible (less branches will break). This might be bad for the maple season if maple sap tubes get broken.

I'm in the worst of it.

I’m hopeful with how FEMA will be able to help and respond…

Didn't someone say that the states are now responsible or am I misremembering.

This is insane…

The major flooding concern is farther west than the Appalachian region...
The post you linked had it right, it's the Mid-South and Ohio River Valley. I don't know why you needed to change that to be an area that isn't going to be affected much. I'm firmly in Appalachia and we're looking at maybe an inch of rain from this storm.

I honestly couldn’t remember the term..

Can’t edit my post, the tornado threat is today for the same region with a maximum 30% chance and a categorical outlook risk of “HIGH”
