    How I spent my Saturday

     



    Got nothing done but shovel the driveway for 3 hours...

    It had rained early in the blizzard and then switched to snow so it was just a bear to move! We had thunder and ligthning with 60 mph winds! But we kept our power!!

    My fence is 3 foot!

    We've been getting snow here on and off all day, only a couple inches so far though. The good news is that it's very wet and heavy snow, and the ranchers and farmers out west are getting it too, and it's been so very, very dry out there for the last year! Forecast shows us getting another couple inches overnight, with the winds getting up in the 30 mph range. Doubt there'll be much drifting as wet as the snow is! I'm certainly not going to complain, as dry as it was all last summer we'll take moisture in any form it wants to come in!!!!! Only 20 steps from the back door to the garage, so it has very little effect on any of my plans!!!!! As for shoveling it, my attitude is that I didn't put it there so I'm not gonna shovel it!!!!

    Yeah, we've got a steady 35-40mph wind here, but it's straight out of the south, bringing gulf warmth and moisture with it - we're at 52F right now!! It's running into the front off of the Rockies up north of here, and then pushing NE adding to the storm across the upper MW. Looks like the folks down along the SE edge, into Mississippi, Georgia, and that area are getting some thunder storms and lots of rain.
