Good morning! 22˚F, cloudless skies, S wind, heading to the 50s. It was not supposed to freeze this morning and this is the coldest morning this year. Good thing I ignored the forecast and prepared. The only thing they have gotten right lately is predicting no rain, of course they could predict no rain every day and get it right 90% of the time.

I could work in the yard today if I don't feel too cold, will see.

Good morning TBN!!

24 here this morning with about 3 inches of snow. High will probably be about 34 like yesterday.
Got the dog out and walked earlier and longer so I could keep him in until there was accumulation. Then sprung it on him. His first snow and he loved it. I walked about a half mile while he probably ran (romped) two. Took him out around dusk on the 4 wheeler so I could do my obligatory donuts and snow ride.
I think I am good for another 3 years now. Bring on spring!
I'll get back out in it today. Maybe knock the drive down a bit so it melts quicker. I did go out yesterday and started the tractor and let it run a while. It started on it's own this time which was surprising in the 20s!
Wife didn't go out yesterday but thinking she will today.
Not much on todays agenda, as usual. Entertain the wife and dog for a while and then shop time for puttering about.

Everybody have a great and safe day!!

Stay warm and dry. Unless in Calif. Stay cool :)

A bit nippy here this morning. Frost on everything. Supposed to warm up into the 50s later with a warming trend next week. I've been playing IT Chief. Expanding my network to hopefully get to the barn and adding new cameras. Too cold to work outside so I've been setting up hardware and getting everything ready.

23 outside right now, heading to lower 30's. More snow, maybe close to 2 inches last night. Had to rescue daughter from driveway as she got stuck coming up to the house last night. It helps if you stay on the path that was cleared over the last few days. This AM I still see her attempt at coming up the driveway. LOL.

Time to tend to the animals, need to get out of the house today and run errands. Maybe later, maybe not.

Have a good day all and be safe.

Those of you who look mini ex and ranger in photo
cool...that mini ex could be your own snow dozer...
great picture

just strange that you guys way South of me are getting snowed on and we aren't.
Well, 1/2 an inch, not even going to do anything with it as sun is coming out and the dark gravel will melt the snow
quickly. Next week is clear and sunny, but up and down cold and colder
I did shovel the walkway, blew it off with Makita leaf blower and then sprinkled some ice melt everywhere.
I have to take my shoes off every time now, not tracking those chemicals into my house.

my day started really, really poorly.
in putting on my winter coat, end swatted a plant on coffee table and it fell, exploding damp dirt everywhere.
I vacuumed it once, but need to do it again when fully dry.
most visible place in the living room too...if you are going to do it, do it well... :rolleyes: :cautious:

Cleaned up the driveway and areas around the house. Looks to be more like 4 inches last night
Swept the walks as well.
Farm insurance notice said it will change wind and hail coverage to where I am liable for up to 5 % percent of damage. They are using the news to boost cost for farm coverage. Not many choices for farm insurance out there unfortunately
