You're right about that. last week they said we were gonna get 3"-6". we got 16" !! A few years back they said we were gonna get 6-10". 50" later it was STILL snowing !!!!!!! My nieghbor lost 10 calves because of it. When it was all said and done we had 59 inches on the ground.

Tilled up a garden area this last weekend to plant my onions. Friday, Saturday and Sunday were BEAUTIFUL! Sunday it hit 77 degrees. Forcasters say today a high in the 50's and then Wednesday through Friday highs in the lower 30's. Seat time this weekend included grading the driveway. Changed all the oil in the lawnmowers, tiller, generator/welder etc getting ready for spring. Bet that pesky ground hog sees his shadow and gives us more winter this year! This cold-hot-cold weather is wild.

Some of the guys here have been taking a real beating.but the turn will worm, have fun in the snow and be safe.

Up here they just put a storm warning across the scanner from the National Weather Service ......... 15 to 30 inches of snow. Why do I think they're just guessing when they come up with a range of numbers like that ?

Calling for up to 18 inches here, and temps of -14 C. It's not going to rain, thankfully.

Calling for 3" tuesday and 12" to 18" wendsday. No ice, rain or sleet here thank goodness. I cant imagine 1.5" of ice under 12" of heavy snow. Lots of damage from something like that. Take care of yourselves.
