Default Jackson is really cold!

The ice got to 1.75 inches. It has melted back to almost an inch.
Amazing how fast it comes and goes.

Jackson is definitely not ready for cold. Three days between 15 and
30 degrees brought 100+ breaks in the water mains. Mostly from
shifting clay, they say. We live just outside the city, so we did not
lose our water. We have houseguests from the city. It may be several
days more before water is right in the city. The state government and
most businesses have closed because of the breaks.
