Metrodome Collapse.

And Favre and the Vikings haven't even taken the field yet:

MINNEAPOLIS — The inflatable roof of the Minneapolis Metrodome, where the Minnesota Vikings play, has collapsed following a snow storm that dumped 17 inches on the city.
...
The National Weather Service says the storm that hit Minneapolis and much of the upper Midwest has dumped more than 21 inches of snow in some areas.

The Vikings' Sunday NFL football game against the New York Giants had already been pushed to Monday.

It wasn't clear whether anyone was injured in the collapse, which happened overnight.

Snowing here in Chicagoland; Mal said he'd never seen the intense snowfall and drifts!, back at his home in New Richmond.

We've a wake to attend here, family Christmas plans have been changed already, and the best you can do is be flexible, I think, play it all by ear. Life goes on, and we respect Mother Nature too.

Luckily, it's the Christian Sabbath so I suspect many people will just take today as a day of rest...
