I would love to have that much snow :shock: :wink:
County plowed out the county road this morning- big drifts I'd of never got thru-- and I was able to get in to town to have the High Judge swear me in for one "last" term (in talking with District Judge McKeons wife- they were not sure they would make it today either- and thought they may have to do it over the internet)-- and by the time I came home later this afternoon- the road already was getting some fairly good drifts-- but mainly was hard to see because of the absence of no ditchs or nothing....Everything looks the same- from roadside to roadside- from ground to skyline- everything is white....Can't tell where you are...
I hope with your storm you don't get the minus 20 temps we're supposed to get tonight that are following it down...
Enjoy it Soap...
According to the new RadioShack handy dandy weather doo-dad that was a Christmas present, our current temperature is 1.2 degrees above zero Farenheit with a 20.4 mph breeze out of the north-northwest, making an 18 below zero chill factor. Late this afternoon the sundogs were quite prevalent, and they usually indicate very cold weather to come.
