What happened in your neighborhood on January 15th?

I'd heard of plans for nationwide rallies. Here's what happened with the Mass congregtional delegation. Did anything happen in red states?

1. In the midwest we were expecting an ice storm. Not alot of people went out.

2. Oh right! That dominated the news on Friday and Saturday. Was anything...

...planned that had to be cancelled? A lot of states were involved.

3. Not just an ice storm, but the

ICE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE to judge by the local news broadcasts that were in full Storm Mode with reporters on the streets at the transportation department command centers, grocery stores and airports interviewing anyone who had ever heard of ice.

4. Atlanta had a smaller sized rally/march to the capitol

Admittedly ATL was a bit late getting it set up vs some of the other announced rallies, so only had about 2 days to promote, but somewhere in the 100-250 neighborhood for attendees. Not overwhelmingly huge, but decent for the short notice and probably better than usual for a typical protest in Atlanta (the BLM protests the notable exception of ones that were much much larger).

From pictures looks like New Orleans had a march too. I heard Raleigh had a filled college auditorium-sized classroom of people gathered. Orlando had a small rally.

Definitely not the scales of San Fran or Warren on Massachusetts ones, but I think most of those had big name House/Senate/Gov folks attached, and these were more local startup protests so didn't quite have the same signal boost to get the word out. I saw pictures for a Tampa rally that had Rep Castor attached and that looked fairly well attended.

Basically if you go to Twitter and search "ourfirststand" + name of major southern city should get some pictures for a sense of scale.

I was at the rally in Warren MI and it was big, but that number seems high to me. Got a link?
