Sunday morning scene in Detroit.

Today is April 15, the 26th day of spring. AKA: The perfect time for mother nature to serve up an ice storm for southeastern Michigan.

Power is out for several hundred thousand DTE customers, basements are flooding as freezing rain gives way to regular rain, and those who aren't dealing with those difficulties are just plain old tired of this seemingly endless winter.

Misery loves memes though, so let's try to warm your heart (and our finger tips, because we're one of those SOL DTE custos) with some jokes about the mess outside.

Ain’t no relief in sight.
