LOL this is kinda funny, I have kids and my 6 year old daughter had a come apart when she heard about this today on the news.

Kentucky Police Issue Arrest Warrant For Queen Elsa
If you've seen a statuesque blonde in a sparkling long blue gown with magical ice powers, alert police in Harlan, Kentucky immediately.

So goes an arrest warrant issued by the Harlan Police Department for Elsa, a character from Disney's hit film Frozen.

The warrant comes after bitter cold temperatures and icy weather hit the state earlier this week.

Instead of letting the weather get the city down, though, the police department thought it would be fun to show their sense of humor, even under the pressures of low temperatures and treacherously icy weather. The police department posted the warrant on its Facebook page Wednesday.

"All points bulletin!!! HPD has issued an arrest warrant for Queen Elsa of Arendelle," writes the police department. "Suspect is a blonde female last seen wearing a long blue dress and is known to burst into song 'Let it Go!' As you can see by the weather she is very dangerous. Do not attempt to apprehend her alone."

For those few not in the know, in the movie Frozen, Queen Elsa has magical powers that allow her to turn everything to ice. Elsa initially has problems controlling her powers, resulting in a winter storm that swallows her kingdom of Arendelle. Eventually, though, Elsa comes to terms with who she is (mostly by singing the film's anthem song, "Let It Go"), and she gains control of her icy powers with the help of her sister Anna.

However, the Harlan Police Department still stresses the importance of staying safe and warm during such nasty weather.

"All kidding aside, the weather has been very dangerous and temps will get worse," writes the department. "Everyone please take precautions to stay safe and warm. Stay off the roads unless it is an emergency. Watch out and help others who may need help. HPD is doing a great job during this time but it takes everyone working together."

Much of the U.S. is in the grips of the sort of wintry weather Queen Elsa could be blamed for, with temperatures below zero in many cities, along with a lot of ice and snow. And, unfortunately, there's more to come for much of the areas already hit, with more ice and snow forecasted for today and tomorrow.

According to The Weather Channel, many cities across the country have hit record lows, seeing the lowest temperatures in over a decade.

As these temperatures are likely to continue through February, other police departments might follow suit with their own arrest warrants, with Queen Elsa soon becoming Public Enemy Number One.

Its a little colder and a tad windier than a typical February on the South Shore. I have lived in my town all my 63 yrs. I have never seen this much snow on the ground. The cold is keeping the snow light and fluffy. It squeaks when you drive on it. Thats good snow with decent traction. Wet snow is the pits.Water on ice is the worst traction there is. I hear that that is what the next storm is going to be.:D

On the Today show this morning we saw this. It is from a book of photos. People were in parking lot when the Jeep owner got in his Jeep and fired it and let it warm up. As he backed out of the parking space the iced up front end just slipped right off it. People took photos of it. Pretty neat!!! It is the first im I ever saw that happen!!

I've heard the cedar trees cracking at night when it gets really cold...scared the carp out of me the first few times I heard it...I thought they were going to explode...and fall on me...and nobody would miss me and I'd be cold and lonely with a tree on me...

my clutch was pretty stiff this morning... I was afraid of a repeat of my first ranger, when the (admittedly poorly maintained, but not by me) clutch fluid froze solid in a similar cold (-5F) here this morning.
