Another boring winter day in northern Wisconsin

[roscoe]

Nothing to do today.

Today
Snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible.
Tonight
Snow, wind gusts as high as 43 mph.
New snow accumulation of 4 to 8 inches possible.

Maybe I'll take a drive north to Hurley, visit a friend, take him out to dinner. Maybe drive over and watch those 30' waves on Lake Superior.

My safety tip of the day is...

Don't go out in this stuff.... Big tall waves

forums.iboats.com

Today
Total daytime snow and sleet accumulation of 2 to 4 inches possible.
Tonight
Snow, heavy at times. Areas of dense freezing fog before 10pm. Blustery, with a north wind 15 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 40 mph. Snow accumulation of 11 to 17 inches possible.

On second thought, maybe I'll stay home and clean the bathroom.

Yeah here in central Minnesota 1 day ahead of you guys, you know it is serious when Sunday church services are being cancelled.

The freezing fog last night early this AM was a nice touch. I drove the 4 miles to town to get some groceries. 4 wheel drive newer tires and I didn't go faster than 20 mph. We are getting smaller flakes with 20-25 mph sustained wind. The 20 mile drive to the freeway tomorrow morning is going to be a treat with the wind and the open fields. 10" of snow.

It's 78 right now down here

Yeah but....


No panhandlers, drug addicts, or grifters to deal with when you stop for a coffee.
And no homeless ( I mean un-housed ) camped out in front of work to navigate through.

I'll deal with the snow any day.

Its about that here too, in front of the fireplace.
About to open a window.
How can you handle that heat ?

 

[Scott Danforth]

You get used to the heat after a few weeks. Can no longer do cold

I can drive into town and pump gas then walk into the store and pay for it.

One nice thing we now have enough snow on the lake to ski and bank up snow around the spear house.

It's a dry cold.

29 degrees and raining here … that is about as miserable as it gets.

Was an interesting drive in this morning, people drive dumb.

That’s funny. Your average is way too low!

Gee, we had 58F here in NJ. I was able to paint my boat's controls, with some help from a space heater in the garage. A good step toward spring fit-out, although a bit early.

 

[Bugzilla46310]

We had abnormally high temps in the 50’s &60’s for a week then back into the teens over Sunday night.

No it's true. You get a wet cold in the low 30's with gulf moisture it goes to your bones. Google it
