Thread: Guess winter is here

Tweet

I just took these out the back and front windows. I have plowed twice today and will probably do it twice more

That's how I spent my weekend! Plowing and shoveling.. It's gonna get cold, be safe out there!

Plowed 4 times today not going out anymore waiting till tomorrow they just said we will get another 4/6 by 7AM

We started at 16 degrees this morning. Now it's 50! Tomorrow will be back into the teens / twenties..

Got some pictures from my sister back in Illinois this afternoon (looked quite a bit like the ones you posted Charlie).

Over the last couple of weeks I've been trimming out some of the excess/overgrown trees on my place. My daughter and son in law use a wood stove to help cut their heating bills, so I went ahead and cut the split the wood for them to use (a bit over a half cord by the time I was done).

Between the pictures of snow and cutting the wood I am reminded of 2 things:

1. Why I live in Arizona

2. Why I don't heat with wood.



To all of you in the storms path stay safe.

Yup, it's winter. The forecast hi for tomorrow is -11.......

We got over 12" here in the St Louis area depending on where you lived.
All I know is when I pulled our 06 Yukon 4x4 out of my garage tonight I was pushing snow.

Man do I ever hate you in a very nice way.
Sureeeeee, rub it in. Just to be sure to use sun screen.
Wouldn't want anyone to get sun burned.

-34 Wind chill. Just came in from opening up the driveway.(AGAIN) Chris is on her way to work and I'm sitting here warming up...Got to get the heater working in that plow truck. They say heating with wood gets you warm 4x Cutting it splitting it stacking it burning it I could think of a few more. Loading it hauling it unloading it I'm sure there are more but I'm glad I did most of that back in the summer. They have notices out that if you are traveling you have to have a good reason??? -14 there has to be a good reason. They need all cars off city streets so they can plow.

stuck in the drive way to road 12 feet . stuck in the road five feet out of drive way. 60 feet to main road. going for the run up ... foot to floor to get some wheel speed made it .. stuck at road stop sign... So back up truck to the drive way stuck 15 feet from it. so i am going to get 400 pounds of sand for weight when i can drive out to get it

It's so cold across the entire upper central US that politicians have been spotted with their hands in their own pockets! Now THAT's COOOOOLD!!

The fact that they are somewhere to be spotted is amazing
