We are having about the same weather as you are, but maybe 2 degrees (F) higher.We're within a couple of hours of ea h other... and we'll be having rain next week...
When I got out of bed this morning, it was 9F/-13C here, too... in Texas. There was a light dusting of snow on the ground.
At 3PM, it is currently sunny and 24F/-4C.
This happens once or twice here every year. The worst was the "Big Freeze" of February 2021. The Texas power grid collapsed. At least 246 people were killed directly or indirectly, with some estimates as high as 702 killed as a result of the grid failure.
Texas is not part of the national power grid, because that would require Texas to comply with federal regulations, and "Texas don't believe in no big gubment regulashuns."

The snow started around 2:30 pm - not heavy enough to accumulate yet, but maybe later. Supposed to keep snowing overnight.

We may actually get an inch or two of snow.

Update - as of 11:30, I am officially no longer in a snow draught! It had snowed just over an inch, though it might switch over to sleet or rain, later on. It finally started accumulating on my walks, and it's up to about half an inch there. First time for "measurable snow" in 715 days.

Freezing rain is one of those weather forecasts that makes me groan. I hope your power stays on.SW WA & NW OR are closed...due to everything being frozen ice and we are expecting rain that will turn to ice.

I have no idea of today's snow accumulation. There was already snow on the ground and on the patio furniture. But, it's coming down slow and steady.
Yeah it is, until it melts and turns to sludge
Our forecast for tomnight is down to 6F, which is about 74F too cold for me
