It's not going to be warm here for a while. It's 9 right now. I don't want to go out anywhere, but I know DH is going to want to go to the casino. I think I am finished being contageous, but I'm still hacking and sniffling a bit. If the casino gets too crowded, all I have to do is cough a few times and they will give me some room! LOL
 
You just gave me an idea. I can put a plow blade on the front of my scooter and hire myself out. :angel:

You could call your service "Snow Angel". ;-)

We have one very skinny degree here. Makes back home look almost balmy with its current temp of 4. So far tomorrow's travel day looks good with temperatures in the low 30s and no snow end to end. Hope all the road crews do a bang-up job today.
 
I wish I could stay indoors, but there's a monthly coffee club meeting today that I want to go to. I do still have long johns from when I lived in Michigan, so that will help.

On the bright side, the temperature is supposed to be 59 on Sunday :)
Aren't yours long Janes?





runs and hides
 
This morning it was -17 here. Now it is a balmy -6. That's F not C!

Sat supposed to be up to 14, plus some more snow... don't know how much, some say alot. Sun calling for 29, Mon isgoing to be 31! Gads that is too warm as then it might rain!!! NO!!!!!!!!:mad:
 
Here in G it's a rather warm winter, it feels more like spring... temperatures between 8°C /45°F and 10°C/50°F.
Right now it's raining, but the whole day was warm and sunny.
 
Spitting snow off and on, looked like a blizzard for about 40 seconds. Then it stopped. I'm on the north end of town and can see the Interstate, cars have not slowed down.
 
I don't think we had any snow overnight, but it's blowing so hard out there right now it feels like it's snowing. The wind is packing down the powder, drifting the driveway and picking up loose snow where it can and swirling it around. Very blustery. It's supposed to get into the low thirties today, but if it stays like this it won't feel like it.
 
The temps have steadily rose overnight, Right now it's 34 F. I would like to get out there and scrape overnight snow/ sleet off the steps and sidewalk before the cold snap hits us again. Nonsense. It's 5 am my time. The neighbors deserve to sleep in even if I woke up.
 
They are predicting temps as low as -40 in some parts of northern Minnesota from Sunday through Wednesday.

My kid is driving four hours north to head back to school on Monday. I'm worried about her, since she has no concept of this kind of cold. I noticed she had been wearing a pea coat and ugg boots for the past few days. I asked her last night where her (expensive) heavy insulated coat is.

"Oh it's up at school."

I asked, "You do realize it will be 15 to 25 below on your drive back to school Monday night?"

"Yeah. But I'll be in a car."

"And what if something happens to your car on the way back? For instance, you have a flat tire or slide off the road?", I persisted.

"Stop nagging. I'll be fine!"

This is why I worry. I'm putting blankets and food in the car, whether she likes it or not. :wacko:
 
It's starting to warm up here, just like they said it would.
And the snow that was able to blow with the wind has pretty much run it's course. I hardly have any snow on my roof anymore even. Still blowing, but not blustery anyway.

That sounds unpleasant.
 
We're not getting a blast of snow, but we are getting the super cold, clear days that mean bundling up to your eyebrows. -33C with windchill today and tomorrow -37C with windchill. Brrrrrrr! Hope I find a stall with a plug in at work tonight.

And a can with a candle and matches. Kids. They think they're invincible, I'll say a prayer for her drive Steve.

Kids!

We took the car from the lightly heated garage to the dep (convenience store) - a 0.3 km drive. Maybe 15' from car to store. We wore all the cold winter gear. I really don't want to have to deal with being under dressed if I have to be outside the car. There could be an accident. The car could refuse to start. I really don't understand people who won't dress for the weather because they will be in a car.

Be sure to put some candles and matches in with the blankets and food. And a can opener if appropriate. I'd make sure she has her winter washer fluid topped up and spare in the trunk.
