Re: Snow day

Pretty nice here. 40F this morning & 48F at 6 pm. My expected grandson has a heart defect so prenatal visits entail a 2+ hour drive to the nearest cardiologist specializing in in utero & neonatal heart problems. Found out today it will be twice weekly for the next month. :-( Haven't had a nasty drive yet, thanks be. Mama gets to snooze on the way, but grandma is driving, it makes for an exhausting day. Stay in if you can Auralie, freezing rain or sleet is bad weather for sure. Everyone else stay safe too. Hope spring is coming. Buds on the grapes here are swelling a little. Have to get out & prune soon. Maybe this weekend.

Wow... you guys are really having a tough winter.
It is cold cold here and a light snow falling. My new temperature gauge says 16 on the window and with the wind it is only suppose to feel like 1 degree. 
This weekend is suppose to be nicer... I sure hope so.
Stay warm and stay safe.

We're not getting snow - at least not yet - but that would be nicer
than what we are having.  The temperture is 21 degrees - up from
19 when I got up - and it's sleeting heavily. Looks like about two
inches so far.  I did make it out to feed the birds, but it is really
not nice.  Thank goodness we don't have to go out for anything
today - tried to think ahead and catch up  on everything yesterday.
I can't remember ever having sleet when the temperature was
this low - it usually comes around 30 degrees.  The radio says
this may go on until tomorrow, and then it will get colder.  Not
nice.

ha... I did the same thing yesterday.... a few times. This morning there is a 5ft drift in the way of me getting out of my driveway and a few shorter ones that the SUV isn't going to clear... Snow up to the windows on the south side of house.... It has buried my patio furniture on the west side and even the pond is totally covered and over the bridge which I estimate makes it 3ft deep 
there too..(not good, gonna loose my fish!).. they are predicting another
couple of inches for me today then the deep freeze comes till the weekend... sigh. They claim we got 9 inches, hard to say with the drifting. Birds are on their own today, since I can't even get to the feeders unless I go thru some major drifts. (which is rough when you are 5ft 2 inches tall!) Might 
just throw some seed out there and hope for the best.
