Richard Doolittle said:A lot of people are calving around here and are just trying to wrap up the week from HE77 after last Monday and Tuesday's storm. Now here's a quote from the NWS website:
...NEXT SPRING STORM TO IMPACT AREA SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...
ANOTHER STRONG SPRING STORM SYSTEM WILL CROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES
ON SUNDAY AND ENTER THE PLAINS SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. THIS
STORM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BRING SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS AND
STRONG WINDS TO MUCH OF THE AREA.
I don't think there are many terribly major losses from this last one, but things are stressed and really need a little time to recuperate. If round two hits us within a weeks time things could really get challenging.

Richard--You don't want to look at the long range forecast-- as the weather boys are saying after this one gets thru- the pattern appears like another may be building to follow right on the same path to get here about the end of next week..... :shock:![]()
Where was the Lamb part of March :???:
Richard Doolittle said:Well hopefully since we're staring at the first of April next week, we'll start getting more springlike days. But for now, March looks to be really going out like a lion. 10-15" of additional snow and 50 mph wind gusts from Sunday Night through Monday Night. Since everything is drifted full from last week, maybe this snow will just blow on by until it finds some place to lay down :wink:

:shock: UGH!!! We're supposed to get more too, but not quite that severe. May be a different story coming later next week :shock:. If I could, I'd send up the calving barn, some hay, and about 500 trees for shelter. At least Ranchers.net can give you all some moral support! Keep us posted.
