Well, Here We Go.....

Have had two snow events coupled with 40-50MPH east winds giving us this morning drifts in front of the car of about 18 inches. Of course in this area to get out of a prolonged cold snap requires an ice storm. Yup, you got it, this afternoon the ice started. So now it is 25 degrees raining and east wind of only 12MPH. Tomorrow is suppose to be more of the nasty stuff, then 45 by Monday. Oh the price for living in paradise.
I know this is not like the east coast but about the worst winter storm series we have had for about 5 years and this year we are living in the trailer. Oh well, not one frozen line in the trailer yet, and we are staying warm. What more could you as for?

  • Well, here in the Midwest we had record snowfall for the month of January and it just keeps snowing. Record cold as well with below zero temps for highs on some days and crazy windchill as low as -30 to -40 below at night. Heat bills about 40% higher than last year. I don't leave the dogs outside for more than just a few minutes in that cold.

    As for me though, anything is better than an ice storm!

    Stay safe and warm.
