That shivering old man in the middle of the 12 inch zone? Yeah, that would be me.

I know it's a bit late to buy and train yourself some sled dogs but there's next year's global warming accumulation ::thumbsup::
Remember, if you get stranded in the cold, finds some rocks to heat up with a hand phaser.

My women-folk already made the comment about getting a sled for our dogs to pull. We have four dogs now, but two of the little old buggers would have to ride on the sled!

Big old Nothing Burger here. Just a bunch of rain after about an hour of wet snow. The weather dweebs never get it right.

Cold? You want cold?

Got six inches here....which is a lot in this part of NC. But, i am glad it was not 12. Some friends have lost their power, but we are still on.

I've been seeing plenty saying winter this year will last well into April. I've seen a long term forecast for the Twin Cities that's saying no 50's until at least April 10.

I'm so thankful we haven't had snow this season (knocks on wood). My "new" job has me situated miles and miles from home through the most treacherous mish-mash of shytty roads one could imagine. In years past I could re-prioritize my work and my self dependent upon circumstances like changes in weather - not anymore.
Stay safe (and warm) east-coasters!

The local media morons spent the preceding 24 hours hyping the absolute sh*t out of this storm. Throughout the day yesterday they kept upping forecast snow totals, eventually settling on 8-10 inches for my area. It was nothing but rain. What irritates me more than how wrong they always are is the way they give every single (non) event its own name and branding, with wall to wall coverage. What, like it's never snowed before or something?
This is another example of how media and politicians are cut from the same cloth. They can be wrong constantly and never get fired for it.

The naming of winter storms has to be one of the most stunning examples of gaytarded imbecility we have ever witnessed.

We got 3-4, maybe 5, but it's wet and damn heavy. I brought a stepstool out of the garage in order to reach the truck's roof and I still couldn't move it all off. I probably don't have the right implement because using my hands was more effective.
While I was out there clearing away, the trees were shaking off what they could in the slight breeze and melt, so I was pelted with that as well.
I'm going to have to patch/repair the tractor tarp; the snow was so heavy it forced a tear where it was draped over the roll bar. And it busted a laden branch on my favorite tree, so some post-storm sculpting will be happening there.
The power went out and stayed out at six, until about eleven-thirty, so thank God for the generator, and that we had the foresight to bury a line from the house to a receptacle in the garage into which we plugged the freezer.

It's still really cold here, but it is what it is.
We did have some drama on Lake Minnetonka two nights ago -

It was not a posted thin ice zone, but that doesn't make it any less dangerous...it's sad this handicapped guy lost his pooch.
And this story also hits home one of our biggest issues with the MFM...this homeowner who "heard his cries" (and who is merely referred to in other jurnotard articles as a "homeowner who happened to be outside for a second") was in fact a teenager out back having a smoke! But of course these smoking-Nazi jackwagons in the media are not going to say anything about that! God forbid a teenager dare break a Holy Law...even if the event saved another human life...and God forbid other teenagers hear another teenager was a law-breaking smoker!
::cussing:: media!
Wish they would all sink under the ice instead!!!
I bet that teenager got cited for underage possession and use of a controlled substance and is now on probation! Kid should be applauded! Heck, tell me his name I'll send him a dozen cartons of whatever he likes to smoke!
