Well it's getting colder, wind is ripping, tonites forecast is 15 with a wind chill of 6 below. Happy spring...
I got the biggest snowfall of the year on Monday. Our High School baseball team had its first five games cancelled. They haven't played one yet.
Last Saturday, we had a mix of snow and rain, the county was out salting the shit outta the roads. Last night, 8" of snow and not one tablespoonful of salt on the roads this morning. Guess they figured that the sun would be coming out in a couple of hours to melt the roads clear. Go figure...
Wind hammered this area yesterday and last night. Still 6000 without power as of 6 this morning. We lost ours for about 5 seconds, just long enough to screw up all the clocks. 13 right now and still windy.
Last night I stood out in this stuff for an hour directing traffic because someone bonked into a power pole. I looked like a frozen Jack Torrance in turnouts. It’s mid April. This is stupid
Took me 30 minutes to go 8 miles to teach the blond one some humility this morning. We braved the snow storm to pack food for hungry kiddos.
Supposed to go all weird tomorrow. Could be 80 in the morning with snow and thunder in the afternoon from all the weird reports going around.
Minnesota is looking chilly for sure. 50 in Anchorage today, the (formerly) great frozen north. The shady icy turn down at the end of the block is looking dry. May have to take a ride today.
