In Texas we don't know what to make of it, it's been so long since I've seen ice in my front lawn.

As far as FIRST goes, our team hasn't been able to meet at all this week, but we've tried to make the best of it. We've been reading over the rules, talking through AIM and email, and CADDing what we can. It's also provided us with a good opportunity to make a schedule for each sub team, so when we get back to the shop we should be working at full speed. I know we've also been encouraged by our coach to get ahead with school, but I somewhat doubt anybody has actually done that.

Sorry to hear about the severe conditions you guys are facing, the only thing I can think of that you could do is plan out everything. Make painfully detailed agendas so when you do get back into the shop everybody has something to do, and everybody realizes how much has to be done. It's also a good time to work on the Chairman's Award.

A lack of time isn't exactly unfamiliar to FIRST teams, but I wish the best of luck to all the teams suffering from these weather conditions.
