I think rain and much wind and cold, don't know more, i don't go out of the house. They said snow but now the forecast is only around the city. Other places are in snow and very cold.

I saw the precipitation and temperature, cold enough for snow, but given that the ground/surface temps are relatively warm I was guessing rain or maybe freezing rain. We're supposed to get an inch or two of snow tonight but nothing major. Then, maybe another few inches Saturday night. Oh well, it is winter time.
'moanin, Voltatics.
We got that inch or two of snow, light a fluffy, last night. I just love the drama on the news, remotes with reporters talking over the sound of heavy equipment loading salt and brine, plow trucks pulling out in the background, and not a flake of snow showing anywhere. Then, later, the dramatic live shot of very light snow drifting slowly down as everyone wrings their hands over the "winter storm". Come on, snowflakes and cupcakes, it's winter, snow is a normal event and even heavy snow isn't at all unusual. We may get more tomorrow, amount to be determined depending on the storm track, which worries me because Mrs. Awsum has to go out to Long Island for her cousin.
That potential storm for tomorrow may wreak havoc further south, Carolinas and Virginia. They're not equipped to handle snow very well since it doesn't happen often, but it does happen.

Holy ice cubes, Batman! Tritium is colder than we are!
Right now it is, it will get colder later. What did you think? Sunny days and heat? lol
Zero this morning although strangely it warmed up to 8 degrees before dawn. Go figure. I spent the day inside reading a book and taking a long nap. We managed a high of 20. It is supposed to improve on Sunday.
Of course, I did have to bundle up to feed and water this morning and this afternoon. Tanka did not get out of his pen today. I just couldn't make myself go out there to move him into the big pen out back. Tomorrow, I promised him.
Brought in wood, cleaned out the ashes and now I better get some dishes done so Hubby doesn't think I am a lazy girl

Lizzie, if anyone thinks you're lazy they need a session with Dr. Oz!
We had a high of +4 today. I am learning to handle a mouse with my left hand. I have the button switched. OT wants me to keep my thumb immobilized except for occasional exercise. At least I am not in Rave's situation. Just a puny case of tendonitis of the thumb.
Just a flyby to say hi Voltville. Hope everybody's having a good day. Sorry to hear of your losses Awsum. Prayers for you and your family.
'moanin, Voltalytes.
Hope everything is holding for you, too, Wuzz. At least you should have warmer temps than most of us. It's in the 20's in sunny, warm, Greece, too.
We're getting that snow. Started snowing lightly at about 8:15 and the road has a thin coat of snow already. It's in the low 20's, 23 at the moment, so whatever falls is staying put. I just came back in from walking Leo. I thought he had to do some "business" but he just wanted to go outside. It was an abbreviated walk though, even he was getting cold! He doesn't quite understand snow yet and keeps staring up to try to see where it's coming from I guess.

Good afternoon. Winter finally arrived in my neck of the woods. We got about 3 inches of snow and not expected to get above freezing today. I know some places were hit hard. Hope everyone is safe and warm.
The temp has been slowly creeping up. Yup. High today will be three degrees above yesterday. We are on a warming trend. 8 deg F.
We've been wobbling between 18 and 21 all day. When it dips, it snows harder. We've got about 6", so far, and looks like we'll get another inch or two before it's all over.
We've been in the low 50s with lots of welcome rain. Tonight will be the first time this season we've dropped into the 30s. Back up to the 70s Monday
About 10 miles from our place.
Lots of flooding but we are fine although I had to chip a small ditch into the goat pen to save the goats from standing in ankle deep water. The ground was frozen so the water did not drain like ususal.
We are heading out to take a look at the area after our morning cup of coffee.
Lizzie, be safe out there! Looks like you guys have gotten a real deluge! It's just cold here, 2 overnight and only 22 during the day. It's already dropping like a rock out there, down to 16, again, and we'll probably get down to around 5 overnight at this rate. Supposed to be 60 on Thursday though. Don't like the weather? Just wait a day or two and it'll change.
Had my 25,000 mile checkup today and I'm good for another 25,000 miles according to the sawbones. I keep reminding myself that the practice of medicine is actually a "best guess". Mrs. Awsum is home with the flu/cold/whatever that we both seem to have. I did get a "Z pack" from the sawbones today even though he said my lungs seem clear. Sometimes I wonder of all these antibiotics are helping or hindering.

We expect 2 days of snow here. I stay at home anyway lol.
Awsum did an oil change? Are you both better or the same?
