Three hrs of snow blowing this morning another hr of shoveling off the deck and while I was doing that the f******g snow plow goes by and buries the driveway in again

. Can you say what a pain in the back. Anyways how are you guys east of me fairing with the freezing rain and snow today, enjoying it yet

Move to a warmer climate. You don't have to shovel sunshine or scrape it off your windshield.

We had extreme cold, then about 5-6 of fluffy snow in the Laurentiens. I have a Tractor with a plow so not a big deal. I came Back to Montreal yesterday a bit of freezing rain then rain today the high was 42 f, now it is high winds and the temp is dropping fast. Not so bad I didn't shovel at all here, just salt as the drive way was a skating rink.
No mosquitoes or black flies though.

The bugs flew south with the snow birds

minus 10 here this morning. John Deere helped me get the driveways plowed out the other night.

Ready to ride, though...

-12 here this morning (actual, not wind chill.) Had to shovel the drifts out of the driveway before I could get the bike out.

At least folks up north expect it. It was zero here in Tennessee this morning, coldest in two decades. I still have my gear from the sandbox so I'm good, but there are a lot of folks around here hurting! Warming up starting tomorrow, I'll be riding by Friday at the latest!

well according to the weather "experts" this is not the coldest, but it is highly unusual that the extreme cold has pushed as far south as it has, and that is the problem, normally it stays North of us except for the odd blast, but this year it has hit us hard, add to that the thaws and then flash freezing, and it makes for some interesting moments, especially when driving. I like retirement, look out the window and say F*&K it and go back to bed.

Smokey, I do look forward to the day I wake up and say F&%k it I'm going back to bed. And not have to worry about the boss man calling.
