Good Morning from Central Texas.
The front arrived overnight. At 5am 29 degrees/ Dew point 17. Going to be (for us) a cold week. The local news is predicting possible ice / snow for Monday night. Snow isn't bad, just hope no ice ! Don't want to loose power again like in 2021.
Weather Stations ? I have the Ambient weather WS-2902 for about 10 years now. Has been a great one. I like the more simplistic Tempest, but it is too $$ for me. Guess they all have some pluses and minuses.
Enjoy the day, be safe

36, should be the high for today. Rain, then a little snow.

Rip, that sink looks great...and the rest of the room, too.

BEF, you have a high-tech mailbox. I'm happy if the door on mine just stays shut. Glad you got it done without a traffic mishap.

m7040, hope your finger is doing better.

Yesterday was hike day with Della. Had the park to ourselves until near the end when we passed a family all wearing backpacks...guess they were training for a future outing. Came home and split all the rounds I had cut the day before. Took me until dark to stack them.

One of you guys left the back door open again. We're freezing down here. 29 degrees with a chill factor of 7. But I'm looking forward to the sunny skies and 43. It should come about 4:00pm. :rolleyes:

Good Morning
34° which is the high for today, it start a slow decline into the low 20’s by tomorrow morning, with snow starting around noon. If the talking heads are not just bread and milk salesmen, we could get as much as 8”. Won’t know the truth until tomorrow.

Yesterday I did get a carryall load of firewood, read the historical codes on Drew’s new car, and then cleared them to be sure none returned.
I was working on a tool to locate the holes for the pin in the plates that I made for the excavator winch mount when Drew arrived.

Basically, it just centers a punch in the hole for the pin. I’ll clamp the plate in place, then slide the tool through the bushings for the pin, put the pin in behind it and smack the pin with a large hammer. That should give me a center punch mark in the exact center of the hole. Then I can use the mag drill to make the 40mm hole.

Had a nice dinner with son and DIL, interesting being a guest in the house that I built. I liked the walk home though..

Today I’ve got to move hay and straw from the shed before the snow starts, and hopefully test out my tool on the excavator, so I can work on the mount while I wait for the snow to stop so I can plow. Not much else planned other than putting my feet up in front of a fire.
