Good morning!!!!

[NHBX]

Good morning,
18° now and winds picking up. Snowed about 6” yesterday before the change to sleet and freezing rain and back and snow and repeat a couple of times. Had enough snow base and temps cold enough that rain stayed on top of crust and out of bottom snow base. Start cleanup when daylight gets here, not looking forward to wind and potential power outages. Oh well, it’s winter lol.

Today 02/17
Windy with a few clouds from time to time. High 26F. Winds W at 25 to 35 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 50 mph.

Tonight 02/17
Clear skies. Gusty winds early. Low 12F. Winds W at 20 to 30 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 40 mph.

Stay safe everyone

Poured first cup of coffee. 14° with light snow this morning. Heading to 18° with wind and some snow. Got drive and walkways cleared yesterday morning. More snow feel off and on all day. Made my bowl of popcorn getting ready for NASCAR race. Was neat seeing President Trump lead the car parade. Got to see start of race. Then it rained. Finally got to see race startup again. Another rain delay. Watched restart of race. Then fell asleep in recliner. Woke up to see after race interviews. Maybe I will be able to find a rerun of race today. Another walkway cleanup today. My tow bar project is on hold again today. Need to get some measurement from one of the trailers.
Fun to watch birds at window feeder.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

what a long night
still no electric and PECO online page worrisome, says crew diverted to other areas, eta on 2650 out of service locally still unknown after 12 hours.
not looking good, and I got very little sleep last night tossing and turning to noise of gen, never took my clothes off, ready to go outside again.
which an hour ago I had to when gen stopped. Now what, well that propane tank must be empty, and it was.
Had a spare right there and connected it and gen started back up. Will have to get my primary 40# refilled today.

coffee is perking, a little light snow flurries outside and then more high winds today.
which likely will knock more trees down.
good morning, sort of

those snow pics in Canada are incredible, looks like two feet of snow up there on roofs

Morning all!
Currently 21 which will be as warm as it gets. High winds forecast till tomorrow.
Staying below freezing for the next few days.

Lots of ice and freezing rain on top of the 5 inches of snow we got. Not sure if we will be able to clean up what we didn't get yesterday!
Waiting for sunlight to see what we can do. Luckily with the holiday no one needs to travel at either location.
Might need to find someone to come sand the driveway at the apartment house. We had to clean the storm drain a couple times as it kept plugging with ice. Water was several inches deep!
Not looking forward to the day!
Going to relax and enjoy my coffee while everything is quiet still.
Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!

33 going to 43...still windy.

Gusts to 61 at the little local airport. We lost power while we were eating dinner with my son...so had battery "candlelight" until power was restored about 15 minutes later. We were lucky...over 11,000 of our coop customers lost power...many more down in Dominion Power territory.

Check, that's a lot of snow...beautiful, but I'm sure can be a headache. Weather guy put us in the 12+ inches of snow zone for Wed/Thursday...but it always changes.

Lots of rain yesterday morning. Took Della to the park real early, trying to beat the storm arriving...saw cool fog from the snow. Storm beat us by about an hour, so we got drenched...39F and wet, but not bad when exerting.

Most of our snow has melted since it got up to 63F yesterday.

Good Afternoon,
Power out on this street, generator running and filled house with 250ppm of CO !

I wasn't familiar with CO levels, so looked it up...250 is scary! Glad you discovered it.

Good Monday Morning Everyone!

Nice cold crisp 34°F with a 'feels like' temp of 31°F
High Temp today 61°F
4 MPH winds out of the NNE gusting to 8mph
0 precip expected today 76% humidity
Perfectly Clear View

About half way through the morning pot of coffee. Drew I hope you get power restored quickly. Wngsprd glad you got yours back on!

I hope your day is better than you expect mpham!
Thomas it sounds like you will have a great day!
Ron I hope you catch a rerun on the race! Enjoy the morning coffee and birdwatching!
NHBX wishing you good luck on clean up. Hope no trees down to give you trouble. Whew - 40-50mph winds would make it rough to be outside!

I hope everyone can find time to get warm and fed today. My jambalaya sure was good last night with garlic sausage, brisket and chicken in it.

Stay warm and dry if you can! Prayers for our Nation!

Good morning, the low is -3 and going up to 9°above zero. Wind WNW 9 mph. 60% chance of flurries.

Snow on the roof is insulation up to a point. Our houses are built for large snow loads. The steel roof on this one was a large selling point. I don't need to get on the roof to shovel it off. I do have a roof rake for removing the snow from around the two chimnies. Junior will take care of that while I am plowing. I'll start about 11:30 or so and if I am not done by 4:45 P.M., then I will carry on tomorrow. The neighbours get done first, but I do make the driveway passable (just not as clean as I like it) before I go to them. They are a lot smaller than what I need to do here.

That is my day planned out.

Scotty, can you jury rig a pipe onto the generac exhaust to route the stink into the open?

Have a safe day all
