Just the usual chores.Get anything accomplished today?
OK, sleep well and don't work too hard tomorrow. Catch ya later.I need to hit the rack
White world not good..........Yeah, and likely it won't be spring until May. Seriously, the high was like 32 and the snow this morning was supposed to quit at 3 PM, but it is still snowing now and 17 degrees. Our world is white again.
Those advisories are because the idiots at the weather forecaster station think we are as dumb as they are -- that is, we can't look out the window either. We had horizontal snow most of the morning (winds 30-35 mph) and while the guessers said we might get 1", we had at least 3" of new shit on the ground by this afternoon. They said more snow overnight. with 1-3" accumulation, so if they were off by a factor of 3X this morning, maybe we will get 3-9 more inches. I guess bob will get fired up again tomorrow.See you have a "Winter Weather Advisory".... Are those for the mentally challenged?
Are you supposed to run for your life
Buy groceries even if you don't need um
Make sure the generator is full of fuel................

When are the media going to come to the realization that every single act of random violence (school shootings, campus violence, etc.) in this country has always been done by a democrat? You can check the stats on that and you'll find I am right. Only idiots blame the republicans and want to take away our guns when it is they who are doing the killings (or attempted killings). Maybe we have been being too nice. Maybe it is time to return the favors.

Well, were they wrong again?.......Ditto. I'll let you know how much white shit bob had to push around tomorrow night.
I really cannot tell definitively how much additional snow we got because the wind was blowing all night and moved it around in drifts. I noted the approximate depth as I was scooping with bob and I'd say anywhere from 6" to 18" depending on which path I was clearing. The forecast was 1" during the day and 1-3" at night and my best guess is that we got an average of 9" overall for the 24-hour period when they suggested 4" max.Well, were they wrong again?.......
Sounds like an all round shitty day.I really cannot tell definitively how much additional snow we got because the wind was blowing all night and moved it around in drifts.

I started scooping just after noon today and about 1 PM, the clouds moved off and we had a sunny day, but it still did not get more than 29 degrees. After a couple hours in bob, I was pretty damn cold and my knees were screaming from pushing the pedals. It was nice to come back in the house and get warmed up.
I think that last year about this time, we were in the minus 10 to minus 20 area, so I'm not complaining about plus 29.Sounds like an all round shitty day.
Warm and beautiful scenery..... wish I was there.I walked a few miles today, another nada-zilch.....but I did get one hell of a workout...
I'm not as tired as I thought I'd be....two jobs everyday this week will prolly catch up to me tomorrow evening.Well, it certainly could mean that, but right at the moment, absolutely nothing is going on out there. When was this supposed to happen?
Hey, I thought you were planning to not be here for a couple days. Am I just having late night hallucinations?
Oh good. So drop and give me 20!not as tired as I thought I'd be
I see they're (guessing) -10 -15 tonight?.....damn that's incredibleYeah, Dale, your guess was closer to reality than the official weather guessers. A cold front ran over us right around sunrise. Temperature dropped from 32 to 9 in about an hour. Wind was about 25 with gusts to about 40 and the snow was horizontal. As Lannie implied above, it is supposed to get colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra tonight (or is that a well digger's ass in Alaska?).
Little nippy here, but nothing compared to that.10:27 PM and it is now -8F and still falling.
