There were two people in our community who became convinced that something pretty rough would strike the US before Trump's inauguration ceremony this coming Monday.
After some prayer, some of us have concluded that it turns out to be both the fires in Los Angeles and the massive harsh cold front coming down from the Arctic Friday. Granted, the fires were exacerbated by human stupidity, and may have even been started by arson. However, the bulk of human sorrow will come from the hand of God -- a sharp drop in temperatures and the promise of record-setting cold over a period of three or four days.
I'm wondering if the officials will even be able to host any inaugural festivities outdoors. That area of the US is predicted to be particularly cold and may even see ice and snow.
At any rate, we believe that this cold snap is what our convictions warned us about. Virtually the entire CONUS will be affected, and in some places quite severely. This is going to test the system, and we expect to see some people die from it and some utilities will crash. Keep in mind that the number of homeless has increased dramatically the past few years, and they can't move fast enough to get away from this cold. And they'd have to go all the way to places like California, Mexico or southern Florida to escape. The temporary freeze line will drop far south of the traditional "freeze line" boundary across the southern US.
I'm praying especially that the Lord will be merciful to our community members.
