Re: The weather has been crazy
More shoveling today and more salt but it looks like we are finally coming out of it. Really windy though but the real test comes on Monday as the low will be 10 and the high 25 with high winds.

Beautiful today, clear skies, 50f and a light breeze, a huge contrast to the frigid conditions I experienced on Sunday.

Re: The weather has been crazy
Real winter weather arrived in Minnesota. It is about a month late, but it made it. It is currently below zero and is expected to remain so for most of the coming week. It started with a few inches of snow a couple days ago, and the powdery snow has been blowing around and swirling into moving drifts. Oh well such is life on the northern plains.

Storm coming in late tonite so it looks like more shoveling on the property for me.

Well it is -17F this morning, no wind, but there is a definite bite in the air. The forecast seems to indicate it will stay below 0 for the next few days. I love the sounds of really cold days. Every step produces a crack under foot and the hard pack snow, produces such clear crisp echoes. Very pleasant day for a short walk.

Re: The weather has been crazy
We're getting storms every three days because of the southern jet stream. Mostly fast movers so no Northeasters but depending on temps it can still throw down quite a bit of snow or ice.

Re: The weather has been crazy
It's boring time of year here. Sunny and clear, mid 70's to low 80's (although every 2 weeks add 2-3 degrees to high). We had some nice rain for several days a couple weeks ago, BADLY needed it, but looks like that's pretty much over now and it's back to dry for the next few months.
