I know that it's been ridiculously cold in Iowa lately, but man, I sure felt cold here over the past few weeks. Hope that doesn't make anyone at home angry!
It rained here for two weeks straight pretty much... maybe a stop here and there, once every other day or so. And it was really cold - all due to a big low pressure system moving through. We were all wearing sweaters and socks, and heating water on the stove for our morning bucket bath. And it zapped everyone's spirits. Fun!
School closed down on Thursday morning since a lot of our students live in barangays (neighborhoods) that had been heavily flooded. A lot of people were sad because we had to postpone our prom until next week.
Here, you can read an article about the rain:

Sorry to hear about the flooding. Were any of the casualties in your area?
But as to the "cold," I just want to point out that we've been having "highs" under 10 F, with night time wind chills down around -20 F.
Love,
Dad
