The Whining Thread

[Metals406]

The power did a long enough outage that I had to start the clothes washer again! My house has big windows so I can watch the flakes changing directions. I probably should go out and gather up the camping gear and have it handy.

Oh well, it'll melt in a few days.

Wish I could say the same, don't think ours will be melting for a while.

Yah. The Oregon Coast is supposed to get blown around a bit.

 

[Gologit]

We are actually having a Winter storm, with all the trimmings.



Hey Bob! Honeydew might get a foot of rain. Oh to be on the backside of Beartrap, be like living underwater.

Yup...all the rain gauges in that country measure in feet and yards. Any moisture in inches is considered fog.

Gotta have a sense of humor.

Here is what we might be getting. I don't think it's 7 deg out right now but the damper is wide open and there's ice on the slider door. So it's still cold. The northeaster out of the Frazier valley is coming they say at 30mph with 50mph gusts. that's cold

Dang, nothing much to whine about here, just hit the south side of "0" for the first time this winter, colder tomorrow night, but back to the high 20s-low 30s for the weekend.

We might get an inch of snow out of the leftovers of y'alls storm, which would quadruple what's currently on the ground, but still not enough to keep the dirt off the logs when skidding.

Guess I could whine about the general lack of winter up here, but I kinda secretly like it this way. (Don't tell my neighbors, they'll box me up and ship me to somewhere like Alabama!)

Good Morning!

Snow is belly deep on The Used Dog and still coming down hard. The internet was out last night.
The tin pants have been brought in off the porch to soften up. I shall be moving a bit of snow around today.
It looks to exceed the amount we got a couple years ago when metal building roofs were collapsing. Mine held up and I hope it does this time also.

I expect the power will go off if we get any wind.

Well it is a wet and windy morning. Still no settlement from my insurance company. So at 0530 this morning I walked my scrawny self to work. Holy hell folks did it rain. What went from 40lbs of gear in my sea bag turned into what felt like 100lbs. Bless Hefty trash bags, everything is still dry. Time for a cup of coffee.

This happens here a bit. What is strange, is that the wind is blowing different directions, and snow is hitting the East side of the house. I better get warm clothes on and get to shoveling. Take care!
