    Haha I'm good. I'm not outside more than 3-5 minutes at a time so I'll live. Hopefully.

    I said I was going to opt out of it. But then they said StockX is on the tour so now I'm conflicted.

    Michiganders, I’m looking at purchasing a home in Niles or Buchanan. Relative small towns, but anywhere I should stay away from? Any good areas of town? Budget is in the 100k range. I know that will be super limiting.

    Niles west side to Buchanan East side. Where are you working, that could play a factor. Also kids? Some schools are better than others.

    I'm sure he's a great guy and it's a cool tour but man I'm really not trying to do that tomorrow. I'd prefer a StockX tour.

    I hear you. I’ve done that tour and it’s excellent but nobody should be walking around in that weather.

    Those are the areas I was looking at, west side of the river. I would like to stay close to a major road juncture, I’ll still be working in South Bend. The move will be about the same commute. 25 min. No kids, no S.O. Just looking for a starter home.

    Turn your thermostat down if you have Consumers (or DTE for that matter).

    I feel like they aren't doing a good job of sounding the alarm on what the stakes of this might be. You don't make an announcement at 10PM and send out an emergency alert at 10:30PM if you're not more than worried about hitting a breaking point. The language of the announcement didn't explicitly say "hey if you don't all do this we're fucked" ... but the timing of it kinda suggests that.

    There was a fire at Consumer's 'most significant' facility that houses 64% of their natural gas and they had to shut it off so uhhhh that's not good. It was sent to the entire lower peninsula.

    Where there was snow cover it was fine, but it switched from snow to freezing rain between Rochester and Troy...looked like it was about to get a little dicey
