Cows were really noisy during snow

I noticed that with the cows across the street.

I was getting cat calls from them when I was out walking the pooch

Local TV station had lower then normal Temps listed on the weather map that's when I realized they were listing wind chill projections inciting more doom, gloom and panic.

Noticed the same phenomenon on my weather app. The banner was showing 4° temperatures for the night.

But if you look at the hourly forecast, it was showing a projected low of 20°

The DJ on the radio station I listen to on the way home is one of the worst I've heard when it comes to weather. "It's going to be bitter cold tonight, with temperatures in the teens." Well which is it; bitter cold or temps in the teens?
Last June was a wet month... there were only 3 days without measurable rain. Finally it cleared for a few days and with that much moisture it naturally got humid.
Within a day he was whining about the heat.

The weather predictions have been a little conservative here. I think they said - 35F for today. It's 39F @ 11AM and increasing by the hour. I will soon be seeing green grass once again.

View of my little lake. Taken 1/20/2024 off the front porch. About 4.0 inches of snow left - at that time. Today it's down to around 3.0 inches.

Today it's down to around 3.0 inches.

That's too bad. It's finally gotten cold enough so that what snow we have is staying. Today I realized that I hadn't put the mouse guards up on my fruit trees.
I'd been working and sweating so decided to take the truck, allowing me to have heat nearby. I ALMOST got stuck on the edge of the field where the snow drifts in.
This time of year it should have been impassable.

Well - the forecasters were right. We are getting snow right now. About an inch an hour.

However - a look at the upcoming weather. Friday - 36 Sat - 38 Mon - 41. And above freezing for the remainder of next week. It will all be gone, again, in another week.

Yup, here too.....about 1''/hour, was out and did a quick sweep with snowblower on driveway so emergency veh. and what not can get up if need be. After I'm off the clock at 5 it's all over again.

An inch an hour means nothing if we don't know how long it snowed

We had a light, dry snow here, since the air was dry and quite cold for Oklahoma. (near zero) About 1 1/2 inches in the Tulsa area last Sunday. Roads have been quite passible, even for Okies! Did not spot any cars in the ditches on my 16 mile drive to work. Today most of it is melting, tomorrow should be melting weather also.

We were in Tulsa for the Chili Bowl Wednesday through Saturday and left Sunday morning, we were going to go south to Texas but they were supposed to be just as cold as Minnesota so we went back home, glad we left a 6:00 am, motel heat couldn't even keep up Saturday overnight in Tulsa

The motel looked good on the internet. That was it though.
