Spring is around the corner we made the winter with little to no snow. Last week I moved the boat to the working area of my driveway and here it comes. It's been cold and windy some snow last night just to make a mess. Now Monday into Tuesday a major Nor East storm calling for 2 ft of heavy snow has the potential for power outage for some time.🤬

Big cold front hit us here last night. It rained in a few spots (not here) and today its only supposed to get up to about 83. I know, I'm an a$$ for saying that. But, I lived many years in the Midwest where winter was real and lasted from October through March +/- so being in southwest FL is really nice and not something I take for granted. And if you average it out, I am still due many more warm winters down here to make up for the dues paid for 56 years up north!

I'd bitch about the weather, but 50's here. Just too windy. Only a couple of days in the forecast above the 50's. Got spoiled by having some warm weather early and wanted more of it. Did my quarterly starting up the generator today, but due to the nice winter I'll have to burn off all it's gas before the octane drops too much. Going to need to do the same soon for the boat, but that's much more fun than the generator.

Well it's looking soooo much better warmer air will keep most of the storm rain and wet snow. Maybe 3 inches in my area . North of us 60 miles is a different beast

Miserable here in coastal NC. Had frost last night. We’re all sheltering in place just to be safe…

If we get 4 inches they close all the schools and military bases go to essential personnel only. A couple of times they've done that when there was a threat of 4 inches and it never occurred. Big difference when I've been up north.
