Thomas I see a clipper snow for you folks Christmas week and colder temperatures Mid Atlantic too mild for anything but rain

I hope that clipper will "morph" into something more like this reflection. Based on pattern though it will be wet>frozen here.

Environment Canada is talking sunny for the next 4 days. Seeing is believing, though.

Cold front blew in but still worked with no jacket with the hiking club on new trails for 4 hours today, moving rocks, and spreading mulch. Grand opening for the new trail is next month. We get to use the CA mule.

Good evening all. 57F for the start, overcast, trace of rain fall before I got up, calm wind. Light drizzle in the morning, two lines of thunderstorms in early afternoon, front passage, winds at 20mph going to 25 -40 tonight, high temp mid morning 63F, low temp 42F at 5:30PM. Some chance of winter precip overnight. Trip to town first thing to get my blood draw, then conserving energy rest of day. Dog sitting from now till Sunday, dog is moping big time. Tried to hook up charger for trolling motor batteries, it indicates that charger not connected to battery. About that time rain started, project shelved till later.
To all you weather watchers this system has some energy!!
Drew, water works well, sweating does even better to remove salt. :thumbsup:
Buckeye, used Boat Angel to get ride of boat, they got more at action then I was trying to get for it! THis was about 11 years ago.
Don look like a nice mule.
prayers for all

Been doing genealogy research the last couple weeks. Ancestry dot com added a glaring mistake to one relative.
Been going thru microfilm of the 1800 - 1830 census records for a couple areas. I need birth records from 1794 for one.

Got car ready to go. Donated it to american cancer society. It's due for tag renewal. Also costing me for insurance.

One son flies home tomorrow for break.

33 here, going to 42 tomorrow. Helped the wife out, then believe or not, finished up the leaves for the year. Darn oak trees didn’t lose the 2 bunch of leaves until last week, and I just got around to mulching them up with the zero turn. By spring, all the leaf dust will have disappeared, becoming dirt. I took the dogs for a walk, and our little terrier found something nasty to roll in. Good thing mom is a pet groomer!

Have a good one!

For the second day in a row we have clear skies and an almost invisible frost. It is great weather for getting things done, yet I am no further on with any projects than I was yesterday morning. My only excuse is that I'm going slower as I still haven't shaken off the cold that my wife so generously shared with me a few weeks back. Spent most of my time feeding livestock and wood burner, then getting ready to do the same today. Not sure where all the other hours disappeared to, they went AWOL before I realised that daylight was about over.

Don, good to hear you are back to working in the dirt. Wonder how long before a few displaced rocks becomes the next Texas Star sculpture.

JB, as L4N says, fan is pretty quiet with stove top at just over 200 Celcius. I imagine there could be more noise if someone did a test to see "would it hurt if I put my finger ... " - although not much more than if they had touched the stove

Good morning.
Temp is 27 and going to 32F. Wind S 11 mph. Periods of snow they say. Amounting to 2 cm, I say we will get about 2 inches or so.
That big system I posted about yesterday is gonna roll right over me. Marquette, MI is getting it and so will I.

Eric, 200 C is about 400 F, give or take a bit.
If you stick your finger in the spinning blades of an Eco-fan, you will be sorry. They are metal.
The eco-fans come in 2 and 3 blade models. The difference is in the price. They will both hurt if you stick your finger in them while they are spinning.

Another energy conversation day.

Have a good day all

27 now going to 37 later today. Another wet weekend in the forecast. Haven’t had many workable ones in a while. Furnace gave up after all this cold, luckily it was just the control box. $110 Ouch! Pellet stove kept us warm till we could get the parts. No hot water sucked. We got enough snow yesterday to coat the streets and get the town sand trucks out. Should be a careful commute to work this morning. Hope everyone stays healthy and safe today.
