Up early again, nice that it is still 29 ° outside.

 

[Wagtail]

Quick 'update'. Two houses/properties were lost in the 'Stieglitz' area of St Helens Point.

Other than that, it's 'quiet'.

1,165 hectares burnt.

 

[ronjhall]

Poured first cup of coffee. 32° with snow this morning. Heading to 36° with sleet, snow showers and wind.. 5" of snow since yesterday morning. Been having stomach problems lately. Visited Dr. yesterday. Some test planned and meds prescribed. Will see where that leads to in the future. Looks like today will be spent plowing snow and shoveling walkways.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

 

[Looking4new]

Good morning, the low is 20 and going up to 21°F. Wind WNW 5 mph. 60% chance of flurries.
We got 1.5" of snow overnight. Not enough to plow, yet.

It sucks that the houses were lost. Hope the people had insurance.
1165 hectares, that is about 1500 acres isn't it?

good morning all
enjoying my coffee, nice floor isn't so cold, warmer outside today with rain
this afternoon.
I didn't get one hose put away before it froze...today will get into low 40's, hope it thaws so I can
roll it up. I'm always trying to get one more rv wash or plant watering before the freeze comes.

by fiddling with inflatables out front by the door facing the street, also my bedroom door, the motor noise
went way down. I think the fan is now suspended and not sitting on concrete, vibrating things. I'm amazed that after two
years of running for a solid month each December, they still work at all. So now I leave them on all day, looks better out front.

Buppies, if I had three old fashioneds you'd be putting me to sleep too. Whatever works.

Ron, hope your tummy feels better. I go through a lot of Tums, have a bottle of the chewy ones on my desk.
but if doesn't go away, obviously need to find out why. I take pantaprazole every day for acid reflux but Tums works fast.

off to the new car garage this morning, have high hopes that will be a good experience. And hope to get estimate for replacing that
gasket for less than the price of a small new car.

if two areas have oil deposits, it seems logical to me that the mess is coming from the one in front, forward of the other.

I wonder if those Australian fires are caused by their teenagers freaking out.
Social media now banned for under 16 year olds, first time I think this has been done. (other than maybe North Korea...)
Will be quite a social experiment, folks watching the metrics to see what changes.

Wagtail, is the local press making a big deal of this?

 

[wngsprd]

29 going to 47 but windy. Woodstove earning its keep.

Wag, sorry about the fire...just looked on the map and it shows a large area near the airport. Beautiful country.

Only passed one hiker in the snow yesterday...he had an enormous dog, I think it was a Caucasian Shepperd...first one I've ever seen. He walked it well off the trail when he saw us coming. Quite a bark.

Good Tractor Morning Drew,

neither snow nor sleet nor broken hose reels will keep Scott
from his appointed rounds...
