Winter storm brings blizzard conditions and dangerous wind chills to US Upper Midwest

[Ocelot II]

8. That sounds awful! I think sudden weather changes are harder to deal with

than steady weather even when it's bad. Around here we can get stretches of below-zero weather that can go for a week or more and it's a PITA but you adjust, dress for it and carry on. It's when it changes abruptly that it can get scary, even dangerous. High winds are probably the worst, it causes power outages, poor visibility, all kinds of damage. Hope your cats are OK; cats are tough and they'll know how to shelter. I'm afraid climate change will cause more and more of these extreme and sudden weather events everywhere.
