I didn't want her to fly too close to the sun.

This guy is crazy even for New England.

Mind you, not only did we get 10 inches of snow yesterday, it’s also 15 degrees out.

We had it dry for 20 years after two consecutive big floods in 1993 Christmas and 1995 New Year. Now we had weeks of rain plus snow melting in Southern Germany and Austria and all that adds up to a 9 Meter wave only ... Hopefully ... The big ones were 11 meters with some serious damage ... But they did heighten the Rhine dykes since that time.

PS: 11 meters is the tree tops of the red leafed trees behind the boat.... Current must be somewhat between 7.50 and 8.00

At least he doesn't have far to fall!

Meh, he's all bundled up. He'll be fine.

Maybe he has no other option to get where he needs to go. Even with the -20* wind chills today, most businesses are open and expecting their employees to show up. I think I would take my chances bundled up on the bike rather than riding the T which always sucks when the temps drop. Hopefully he's just making a quick trip.

Afternoon peeps. Was doing other things on the phone. Had 5.5 hours plus 7 minutes. Makes up for the under minutes yesterday. Should in fact be a pretty fine check next Wednesday. Had leftover Pizza cold which is one of my favorite things to eat. About to fool with pennies while my phone charges from the 13% it got down to. I have a pretty good charger that has it already showing 24% whilst I've been typing.

There were two and a half millimeter of snow in Tallahassee, our morning paper says. Should I try to sell them a plow?

 

[tirediron]

How the **** do you measure half a millimeter of snow???????

I guess they don't have a lot of snow removal equipment - they aren't supposed to be getting snow! not much anyway.

Not much more snow since a couple of nights ago, which wasn't much, but there's enough of a snow pack that isn't going anywhere. Walking with a cane I'm not even going to try it, not worth risking a fall! If it snows more than about two flakes I stay in! lol In this cold I don't feel too inclined to go out anyway. They always start talking about it warming up, but the snow pack keeps it colder than their computer 'models' indicate, so now the forecast isn't quite as warm - but 30 degrees is sounding good, we'll take it!!

So Smokey, and Nancy, did you get settled somewhere yet? Hope you did.

Our schools are all closed, started out with the ones that have lots of students who walk, but by late evening it seemed like it was everybody. I quit watching the weather, I don't wanna know how low the temp went, single digits supposedly. C'mon Sunday and normal winter temps!

Jon, that's a lot of snow! You and SharonCat win the prize.

A really tiny ruler?

And no, I'm not talking about Napoleon, who was around 1,700 millimeters tall.

 

[davidharmier60]

The other morning there wasn't much more than a millimeter on my truck. Yesterday there was frost. Today nothing.

Frank I saw one of these in GA Wednesday, going down the interstate. I almost wrecked, trying to see why his trailer was skewed to the side. I thought the guy was losing his trailer!!! LOL 1st time I've ever seen what I guess is called a "tow plow".

It is odd that one was seen in Georgia where a snowplow is an oddity in itself, but I have never seen one here in northeastern Pennsylvania where the industrious redneck asks Santa to bring a plow for Christmas!
