Good morning!!!!

[Buppies]

We are still in the one to three inch range Toppop and up pretty good snow be careful

 

[Looking4new]

We got a couple of inches today/this evening. Now we are going back down into the deep freeze by American standards. -15 overnight and 0°F tomorrow.
As for what I wear outside in winter, jeans and a T-shirt under a flannel shirt and the coat is actually a lined flannel shirt and a French block heater/toque/beanny. I call it a french block heater because it keeps my block head warm.

 

[Boss 302]

More snow on the horizon here in this part of the country, forecast is a couple of inches starting tomorrow.

23° right now...far cry from yesterday's -16° at this hour. High today in the low 20's and snow showers.
Looks like the "big" storm/blizzard (this one is named Kenan) is going bypass us...I have mixed emotions on that, actually. Love watch it snow...don't mind snow blowing...just hate driving in it anymore

Our IT fixed my laptop...had a corrupted profile for one of the applications

good morning all
24 going up to 35 today on a snowy wintry day, flurries this morning, then starts for real this afternoon with up to 6 inches predicted.

I have a new (to me) fridge being delivered this morning. Landlord is getting larger model for a renovation so this two year old one was available.
Door has to be moved to opposite side and very narrow getting into house; all the more reason to let the pros handle it.

So my day will start with taking everything out of fridge and putting in cooler. Will leave frozen stuff in until last minute. Will take them a while to remove screen door
to get fridges past anyway.

then later this afternoon will go have a glass of wine with brother, good way to test awd on car.
First I have to self test this morning to be absolutely sure I didn't bring any bugs back from Florida.

neck is sore, no surprise, heat wrap working nicely.

 

[mpham]

Morning all!
21 here going to 29. We are in the 7 to 15 range of snow totals. I will have the tractor fueled up and the plow on today. Not much else going on with it being so cold out!

We have had our nephew with us all week as his mom was sick with full blown can't talk about it. It has now been 10 days without symptoms so he can go back home. It has been fun but sure does disrupt normal living patterns. Especially having to go out in this cold to get him to the bus stop.
Time for coffee and get the truck ready to go out.
Hope everyone stays safe,healthy and warm!

 

[daugen]

and don't talk about this either.............just look. No discussion please, just in case you haven't seen one yet.
for educational purposes only
And yes, C is good and nothing under T

I am reminded of Harry Potter and He Who Shall Not Be Named
Let's keep our senses of humor folks

pictures and kitchen magnets off the fridge, ready to go back up
time to take trash can out and just beat the truck, forgot last night

 

[wngsprd]

30 going to 42, then likely snow and real cold next few days.

Will be harsh bringing firewood onto the porch today. Cut the outside spotlights on an hour ago and saw two skunks going at it...rolling, biting, kicking...and now I know...spraying. I cracked a window on the far side of the house and instantly got a whiff. Watching a skunk fight was interesting but I wish they had picked a different venue.

Cut a nice load of firewood yesterday, and now need to split it. First, I'll move a full pallet away from the splitter and bring an empty one up. All with the rich aroma of nature all around. At least the wind shifts to a better direction this afternoon and gets stronger...plus maybe a couple of inches of snow will knock down the stink.

Hope Ron is doing well.

 

[daugen]

was greeted with a pretty amaryllis when I got home and looks like second one about to pop also.
most surprising to me was that it appears my orchid is going to rebloom. I've never had much luck with them, usually
they sit there and do nothing. This one must be happy.

 

[daugen]

RS, how are you making out with repairs to your Kubota? Did they have the parts?
Ron, good morning, you are missed.

 

[toppop52]

Good morning, woke to blizzard warnings tonight and Saturday morning. Best guess is 9”-11” and 40+ mph winds. Yaaa! Not!

First all night in the bed in 7 days since I bruised my ribs, still sore as hell
More later when I wake up better.

 

[NHBX]

Good morning

21° now highs around 32° and cloudy today. Winds will pick up throughout the day 5-15 mph.
The weather guesser’s have started to back off the drama and narrowed the track down to a good size coastal storm.
This puts us into the middle of the 12-20” snow path starting early Saturday morning. Fortunately the wind gust estimates have been reduced to the 40 mph range.

I think I’ll change the plow for the blower today, only takes 10 minutes or so on the BX. Also have a couple of empty gas cans that need to be filled for the generator, just in case!

Mostly - we did have nice lunch, just got a sandwich and a coffee and parked at the beach watching the ocean. (we enjoy simple things)

Stay safe and enjoy your day everyone

 

[Looking4new]

Good morning, low temp is -14 and high going to 0°F. Wind N 8 mph. Sunny.

I will scrape the couple of inches we got this morning. Then conserve energy.
If I didn't have arthritis in both hands I wouldn't have the problem I do outside in the cooler temps.

Have a safe day all

 

[Thomas]

17F cloudy mid 20'sfor high,as of now looks like we are in the 3-6 inches snowfall range.

Outside chores done E muffin time.
Plans for today...go to town stop couple stores for critter food,gas and diesel,do grocery shopping,hook up plow to pickup,been good week since Kubota ran so give her some run time,several good wheel barrow loads wood in the basement,and date night,

Enjoy your day all.

parked at the beach watching the ocean

[Buppies]

It is very relaxing. I was fortunate as a kid to grow up across the street from a large pond where I learned to swim, fish and ice skate. When my stepdad became part of the family he brought along a 27 ft cabin cruiser and my love of the ocean took hold. I spent most summer weekend’s on the water up until my late teens when my folks moved to GA. Since then I haven’t lived more than about 45 minutes from the ocean.

Good Morning.
It’s 26 and won’t get above freezing.
Snowing now, ground is white. TV says snow doesn’t really start until this evening, and I’m in one of those zones that they have no idea how idea how much I’ll get. Somewhere between 0 & 12 inches.

Yesterday’s electrical repair was a bit of a puzzler. The 100 amp breaker that tripped appeared to be in good condition, but I measured a load of 42 amps with all the normal things running, including the aux heat on the heat pump. And of course the breaker didn’t trip while I was observing. Spent some time sorting out what fed each of 4 sub panels. There is three meters including the one for off peak hot water. The bottom line is that I couldn’t find anything wrong. I’m going to change the main breaker as a precautionary measure, I picked one up last evening.

Today will start with changing that breaker, followed by moving hay from the hay shed to the barn, and hauling the trash toters back up the lane. Then spend the rest of the day in the shop, split between “shop stuff” and TSA paperwork.

good sized red fox just sauntered through back yard, sniffed at my lawn mower cover and then moved on out, I almost missed the pic, but he stopped and looked back at me.
He had places to go and foxes to see
