Our classic winter storm continues.

Many municipalities in the Twin Cities have declared snow emergencies. Over 225 flights at MSP have been cancelled, which may be a record. There were more than 400 traffic accidents in the Twin Cities during the twelve-hour period between 6:00 p.m. last night and 6:00 a.m. this morning, one involving a fatality.

Our church has Christmas Eve services scheduled for 3:00 p.m., 5:00 p.m., 7:00 p.m., 9:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. None of the services has been cancelled; all will proceed as scheduled.

We may attempt to attend the 3:00 p.m. service.
