I woke up this morning to an overcast sky and a temperature of 31 degrees. Even though there's light rain, I'm a happy camper, as today's forecast now predicts the temperature should reach the low 40s. Tuesday's forecast still stinks, but I'm now happily floating down the river of denial. I could live here forever.

LMAO lenora, I'm with you, where's April?

Well, got to get my rig up to the barn and unload the 200 pounds of sand and 120 pounds of icemelt into the barn. Perparing for a rain and sleet event will make my corral a skating rink.

Then DH will look at my left front caliper to make sure it's not falling off. If not, we will take her to the service department to find out what those crazy noises are in the left front.

Ugh.
I bet you're glad you are prepared for the ice - what a mess ~ and ~ a lot of work to "be prepared".

I am going to brave it and go grocery shopping and also pick up more ice melt.
Think: Florida

It's +1 here which seems to be the low for today. Projected high is 6 but 30 tomorrow and 39 Tuesday. Everything is dusted with snow. It really is beautiful.

Hope you are all staying warm.
Don't stay home. Go take some pictures of Minnehaha Falls and post them. Nothing beats a frozen waterfall for ethereal beauty and you're fortunate enough to have one of the best right in a city park. Lucky you in that boreal wonderland.

LOL lenora, floating on your river

Umbria, safe trip shopping. Yeah, I'm glad I stocked up, people were buying up like mad. I got four of the last six bags of sand.

HIW sounds like nice weather, enjoy! Wow 39? WOW

LOL Zug, they will if it rains. Anywhere that has been plowed will be a rink. No, I don't skate.

30F out now, it's a bloomin' miracle.

It's 7 right now. Tomorrow is going to a balmy -1. My wife is waiting for the call saying school will be closed.

After reading the past few posts, I will never complain about my 28 degree mornings ever again.

And I promise I'll stop whining about 60 too! But this is why we have all our Snowbirds every year. They are loving it and NOT missing the weather back at 'home base'.

I know I won't get any sympathy, but it is 39 here today - but centigrade. Air con on high and too hot to spend much time outside.

Well~~ it is now -20F with a wind chill about -50F. We haven't had temps like this since 1888. Can't wait to complain about the heat.
