Snow Pretty Well All Gone

Well we had our January thaw. Some would say now that the Global Warming has hit but I say it’s nothing of the sort.  January thaws have been with us from the beginning of time. Some years are more pronounced than some but for most parts they are about the same.  One thing about this thaw was, I got rid of the ice build up on my roof.  I sure had a lot this year and it was my own fault.  I didn’t shut up the upstairs and the warmth got up there and well that is what causes the ice jams.  So now that it is melted I closed up the old trap door and it should be good for the next couple months till spring hits.  Today was sunny a first for a few days so that was nice to see for a change. Cooler but nice.  Talk Soon.

Pretty Good Day

Well not a bad day here today but calling for a storm later on tonight. Up to around four or five inches of the white stuff is what they are calling for.  Talk Soon.

Merry Christmas Folks

Well Christmas is almost here.  We had the boys up for a visit, the oldest has left for home and the youngest is staying for a week.  Had a real good time while they were here just not long enough.  Yesterday we had heavy rain but the good part it got rid of some ice dams on my roof. One more day like that would have cleaned it right up. Oh well that’s the way it goes.  This morning though woke up to about five more inches of snow so that guaranteed a white Christmas.  My speed for the weather station is froze up so won’t be able to upload the wind speed till it thaws out a bit.  The directional works though after a bit of work.  Talk Soon

Port Loring Weather Station

Looks like a wee bit of sunshine here for today and warming up tomorrow and on Sunday.  Kind of hoping for that so the ice dams on my roof will melt.  Guess I got to do something about them next year. Talk Soon.

Cold Night

Well temperatures have dropped here since supper and was down to -3Below old scale, rising a wee bit now. Kind of nice though with this wood heat as it is a constant heat. The nice thing also is we have an old gravity fed furnace from years ago. Works great and once you come into the house from outside you are warm. Talk Soon

 

   
   

Monday Night

Rather cloudy and very cold with snow at times, accumulating a coating to an inch; breezy late
Low: 1°F
RealFeel®: -2°F

Man It’s Cold


On the weather forecast below just remember when it says rain this time of year,  it really means snow,  just that the station doesn’t recognize the word snow.  Maybe some day will get one that does. Once the temperature goes above 32F then it will read right.

Well I got to say we had the coldest night this year last night.  Got down to around -12 Below old scale.  Kind of makes a fellow or gal appreciate a warm house.   The old wood furnace here is perking away along with the one in the shop.   I keep the one in the shop going, just in case the urge hits to do some work.  In this kind of weather though it isn’t to often but it’s nice just knowing I can if I decide to. Keep Warm, Talk soon.

Great Day

Well got up this morning to some cold temperatures of around 10 with light snow.   Wife is making a tea and we both are looking out. I got to say every window is like a picture living here in the country.  The turnips were a hit last night that I put out yesterday as I think we must have around twenty deer come for a snack.  So that’s good they didn’t go to waste.  Got the shop stove going and house wood furnace going so things are getting warmed up a bit.  One just likes the thick blankets on mornings like this.  But life moves on and the wife and I can’t wait each morning to get into our day.   Egg delivery this morning also so lots going on.  Talk Soon
