Looks like winter is getting started here...
  • They just issued a winter storm watch for my area. And areas to the west of me are under a blizzard watch. Up to 6 to 12" of snow, maybe more. I knew it's been too good to be true here with our nice brown warmish winter. Me no likey this news...... http://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?warnzone=WIZ027&warncounty=WIC017&firewxzone=WIZ027&local_place1=4+Miles+NW+Eau+Claire%2C+Chippewa+Valley+Regional+Airport+WI&product1=Winter+Storm+Watch
  • Please be careful! I hope the farm in LaCrosse is okay!  Keep us updated on the white stuff.  More crazy weather. 
  • I'll keep you updated. They're saying some areas may get over a foot of snow. Since I'm no longer working now, I can stay home if the roads are bad... so that is what I will do, I don't plan to go anywhere, except maybe a quick two mile trek to get a few groceries. We've been so lucky this year, this is our first snow storm of the 2011-2012 winter season.
  • Updated to a winter storm warning now. Supposed to start Tuesday and go into Wednesday morning. Areas just north of me (by about 45 miles) could see 10 to 16" of snow... ish...ish....ish....ish.
  • Oh girl!  I thought you were working!  I knew you had looked a long time to find what you had.  Sorry!  Hopefully it's working out. I was thinking if you were near LaCross you could volunteer to ride at the ASAP farm. She's got a ton of horses.
  • Oh that would be so nice Beth, I wish I could volunteer at ASAP, I would love to. My health issues and my lumbar spine issues got worse tho, if I do ride, I'd have to just walk along at a slow, easy pace. I'm about an hour and a half, or so, from La Crosse. No snow or ice here, yet. But I can see on the radar that it's getting close. Looks like we may be spared the huge snowfall, we may get more of a sleet and ice thing here.
  • We must have about 3 inches of snow out there now... winds picked up and now it's turned to ice and sleet, it's really coming down, the ice/sleet is really making a racket as it hits the windows and front door.... it's kinda exciting, ha. Yes, I am that bored that I find this exciting.... ha ha.
  • And?  crikey, I stay gone for one day and Remali is buried in a snow storm. Did anyone send out a search party?  Round up the posse! Who's with me? *crickets chirping*
  • Here I am..... LOL. We ended up with about 8" of heavy wet snow, and a lot of sleet. I got plowed out yesterday afternoon about 3:00, and temps are above freezing so it's already starting to melt. 50's for next week, woo hoo!
  • **putting away the smelly markers**
    Glad you're back! That sounds like more snow than I'd want to have to deal with.
