Conservation Alert continues through 10 AM, but it looks like we'll be in good shape on the power grid along the way. Power demand is climbing, but there's currently a healthy surplus expected through the peak of the demand this morning #atxwx #txwx

Extended: hard freezes/bitter wind chills will be the story until Wed afternoon. We may climb a degree or two above freezing tomorrow albeit briefly. Looking at another cold front late this week but it won't be on the magnitude of the current one. Still much below normal though.

Today we honor the life + legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., one of the most prominent leaders in the civil rights movement. 💛 The community march has been canceled due to the weather, and the festival + food drive have been postponed to Jan. 27. 📌 MLKCelebration.com

Traffic conditions are becoming more and more hairy for the Austin metro. Please do not drive today if not necessary. #atx #texasweather #traffic

The latest look at DriveTexas.org (7:50 a.m.) shows some icy patches. Crews continue to treat but please stay off the roads, if possible. If you must travel, check current roadway conditions first. #ATXtraffic #TXWX #BeSafeDriveSmart

Ice is moving out with just a few flurries still swirling around Central Texas. Icy roads will likely linger into the early afternoon. Then, it's all about the cold. It will feel as cold as 5° below zero Tuesday morning. WIND CHILL ADVISORY in effect through Wednesday AM #atxwx

Cold weather shelters will open overnight Monday, January 15. Go to One Texas Center (OTC), 505 Barton Springs Road from 5 p.m. - 8 p.m. to register for overnight shelter. More information at AustinTexas.gov/Alerts or call the Cold Weather Shelter Hotline – (512) 972-5055.

⚠The airport remains open – bad weather has not impacted normal operations. Stay in contact with your airline for flight status. Weather conditions across the U.S. are affecting flight schedules. Continue to monitor road conditions before leaving for the airport.

An update to Blues on the Green.

The Pease Park Troll is happening y'all! Installation on an 18 x 15 ft. troll will start next month. City of Austin approved the larger-than-life work of Thomas Dambo, made from recycled wood from around Austin. Austin's troll will join a network of trolls around the globe!

Thanks to Mopacs at Skyscraperpage for this. This is the same view looking towards Rainey circa 2006 and now. In just a year in a half this will look a lot different when the U/C towers including the supertall are topped out.
