I just called the Legislative Research Council to ask about today's scheduled 4:30 p.m. (CST) meeting of the House and Senate. All committee meetings today were cancelled and the sessions of the full houses were pushed last week back from their normal early afternoon starts due to bad whether, which was expected to make travel difficult.

With a large stretch of I-29 closed and travel in other areas difficult, no one knows how many legislators will make it back. The woman at the LRC said they're planning to try to meet and see if they have a quorum.
