Blizzard on the way

[JB4310]

my wife said a motorcycle went north at a high rate of speed.:shocked:

Probably not for very long! very hard to stay up on 2 wheels in snow at any speed.

In case you have never seen it, this is the full US radar loop in a decent size. Friends in Nova Scotia use it to plan picnics... (expect it to run slow today...)

Be safe you all.

I think the "storm" has moved on east from here. We have some sun and it's warmed up from 16F to 19F, but not supposed to get above freezing before Friday. I was curious as to how much "precipitation" we got. I know it started as rain, so my rain gauge had some solid ice in the bottom, then snow & sleet up to just above 3 inches. So I brought it in the house and thawed it to find almost exactly one inch of water.

That's the sort of thing you do when the weather's too bad to do anything else and you're sitting around bored.:laughing:

And watch motorcycles trying to navigate the street.:laughing::laughing::laughing:

We have snow falling now in central Maine. But, the bigger one hits tomorrow.....8" to 14" forecast with 20+ mph winds.

Snowing here now as well, but the same forecast as JD for tomorrow. Sounds like a good time to wax the tractor. OK, maybe just the hood..

We are getting hit right now, not sure as I have ever seen it this bad and I have been here since 1977
