It just started snowing again but hopefully it will only be the inch that they predict. The temperature is right for snow though and the forecasts show precipitation all day so we will see.

We're suppose to have some snow this evening. There is also a storm brewing for Monday and with the cold air in place will most likely be snow.

Well Canada has always had a wonderful relationship with our southern friends and we feel that sharing is a important part of that relationship, As the guys went out this morning it was -38 at 5 am , at 7:40 am or now it has warmed up and would love to share that little bit of extra warmth with ya all it is -37 and we do not have any wind Thank god . Even My heated water bowl is having trouble this morning keeping up . At 5 am we had a power outage well more like a series of surges 5 or 6 in a row ( Hate them as if something is not plugged into a surge protection bar it fries and that does not always work ) the generator fired up God Bless and ran for a bit , were now back on full power . As i fed the dogs this morning I could hear in the bush the tree,s popping or splitting due to the cold , the moisture in the tree freezes and expands and more or less explodes the tree probably why we had a power outage a tree has fallen after popping on the lines and shorted the power out .

I thought we were DONE for awhile, but today they are predicting 3 inches today… the kids are supposed to go back to school tomorrow (even though it's a holiday for them) to make up for the 3 days they missed last year. This is INSANE… TN is NOT prepared for all the snow/freezing rain. They don't have the equipment, brine, etc… and they need to add more snow days in the calendar.

Bentley told Tate and Finn to splash some water on their mommy.

I'm sure glad Bentley told them that b/c I was getting SO HOT under this sun and with it hitting 90 degrees today...well, i may just take a dip into the Pacific Ocean on this Valentine's Day.

Well it snowed friday and all of it is almost gone and we're expected to get 3-6" starting this afternoon and an additional 1-3 tomorrow. I am prepared unless i lose power and I guess then I need too figure out how to light the gas logs manually. They work off of a wall switch now

We are now experiencing the snow here the TN sent to us via "People of the North" and Al Gore. I hope we do not lose power as we are expecting freezing rain later today on top of the snow. At least you have a back-up generator. I think I will look into that this year.


Try to stay warm.

Shame on you. Now I respectfully request that you place a strip of your upholstery patching material and attach to your left cheek with the other end attached to your right cheek. LOL.:laugh:

the current radar shows you TN folks have rain or is it the white stuff?

We had flurries in the morning yesterday, and then it turned into ice rain… school was delayed for 2 hours this morning. Right now it's just raining like crazy, I'm sure this stuff will freeze tonight… :freeze:
