Today the talking heads predicted a la Nina year with colder than normal weather and wetter than normal weather...possibly holding off till mid December. But since i got the new snow blower, i cant see how that can possible happen.

Looks like we might see some wet snow Thursday.... a bit of a preview.

As time marches on, I like the cold less & less, but I can live with that; I'm finding it's the shorter (& shorter, & shorter) days that really get to me!

It was freezing here this morning and the weather service is predicting some snow showers for this afternoon. The Missions have a lot of early snow so can winter be far off?(See picture)
Our ARPS Model 70 snow blower is all prepped and ready to go and all the tractors have fresh coolant. Itwill be the first time I've used a snow blower, so I'll learn a few things in the process.

My wife just mentioned to me that my quarter horse has the longest coat that she has ever seen on her in 16 years......that horse never puts on a winter coat. ohoh

:thumbsup:Beautiful picture Jerry!

Snow is in the higher elevations here too, and I'm still waiting for my snowblower which was supposed to be shipped from Ontario the week of October 10. We usually get the first snow around Oct 31 but it does not stay. The serious, permanent snow comes toward the end of November or mid December.

Sounds pretty ominous.

Native Americans are famous for accurate winter forecasts with one of their best indicators being the size of whitemens' woodpiles.

So.....how big is your woodpile?

I also heard that we might see a flurry or two at the end of the week.
