Since It's Winter time for a lot of us...

[vinvac]

It is snowing here as well and we have been upgraded to a "WINTER STORM WARNING" as well. I have to laugh, because we have not a had a real winter in probably 10 years here. We used to have snow on the ground from November until at least March...I mowed grass last week... It would be below zero starting in December and lasting until Feb....it is around 20 degree's here today... so nothing will stay long and the salt will quickly take care of most of the roadways...the year I turned 14 it never got above -25 the entire month of January.

Robert, I love that vacuum but that Pink Lady Kenmore has me.....drooling and it is not a pretty site. I want I want I want......................

Fred, you are 100% correct, Robert has been bitten... let's just sit back and see when the new addition is added to the house for vacuum storage and display....anyone want to give a time frame here...LOL

Freezing rain here

I wake up to pitter patter on my window and it's raining. However, since the ground is warm, it's not ice. Unlike Robert, I had no luck today, except for a freebie 1120 DAM for parts at the Jefferson City Sally Army and begging at the MO Blvd antique store for their store use brown hood U3103 Concept that got me nowhere.

That is a nice GE. I may have to do a Kansas City sweep next weekend, clipboard and Ernst & Young travel mug in tow

We received about 5" of snow from yesterday around 11am to roughly midnight. Then during the night a layer of sleet, so now everything has a nice glaze on it outside.

I'm in total winter heaven

So this mornings tasks, sunbeam coffee, six loads of wash (Pulsamatic, 2 Unimatics, Speed Queen, Norge, Kelvinator), making buttermilk pancakes from scratch and then the best part was blowing the snow. Actually I only blew about 1/2 of it and I manually shoveled the rest because its such great exercise I love that pumped feeling after snow shoveling, no gym needed today.

Fresh shot from my office window a minutes ago...

Its supposed to hit 80 here, I've got the A/C on now. It sucks putting up Christmas lights while sweating, the humidity outside is 72%.

But, change is is the forecast: we'll have blustery days of 65 with unbearably cold nights in the 40's starting Monday.

Dreary, dreary, dreary

Our snow is rapidly melting, and we are into the slush down here at sea level. You can't see them in this picture, but the Cascade mountains in the distance have a very nice coating on them now, so that's something.

As usual in the wintertime, Mount Rainier is hiding from us. A very shy volcano (Let's hope it stays that way ;-)

Seattle's so close but here it's a different story. -2 but tomorrow's back to regular programming, 12 and monsoons.

 

[toggleswitch]

Got a couple of inches (5cm) of snow here.
The snow stopped.
It rained, it slushed, it froze, it melted. FEH!

But I'm not complaining, we did not get our sometimes usual 24" (60cm).

It's been so warm here, overall, that I had no idea my new winter coat does not yet have a "dedicated" [travels with it always] glove and a scarf stuffed in it!

Fireplace...

Here in northern Italy the weather temperature in winter can goes down to -20°C, specially during the night or in the valleys of the Alpes... I stay in land so the lowest temp could be -5/6°C alwasy during the night...
This happens specially in January though, so it would be early to see the snow here, even because here the snow arrives from east currents and not from the west ones, so those terrible hurricanes in the USA which become heavy rains in France or in Britain arrive here like what we call "pioggerellina" nothing more than a common fog.

Anyway in my sitting room starting form October until March or April the fireplace is on as you can see...
