This morning awoke to 24 degrees and 4 inches of new snow and with 9 more inches expected by night fall. I checked we have 15 inches and thw national weather services said we could get 10 -14 inches by Monday night. I set and drank 3 mugs of coffee and watch the snow fall.

Coffee in the Smith and Wesson mug.

Have a good Monday, if possible.

last night heavy storms, including a tornado, moved through just west of us .... we got rain and some wind but no power outages in our area .... sitting here watching the news coverage while sipping a cup of coffee, one can't help but realize how very lucky we were ....

I'll second that. We got heavy wind and rain, sound and light show well into the night, but never lost power. A blessing since the whole house genny is still awaiting a part. Lol. Never give it a thought til you need it... then you are SO thankful it's there. :D

Calling for high sixties today, and moderate chance of rain.
Coffee is good.

Glad you're both "sipping and enjoying" coffee this morning after your bout with the storms. You echoed what I shared last Saturday morning here. I felt the same relief after Friday night's storms and tornado watches. My sigh was "Thankfully, nothing serious came about in our area". Sadly, just south of us in AR they did not fare so well. I guess what rummaged through KCMO did repeat in your areas, as often happens with our Midwest weather. Sorry about that, Guys.

After our tornado season opened this weekend, even the weather reporters said to "hang in there and look forward to the end of this type of weather --- possibly by close of June!" Seems like a long time from now; a little like waiting for winter to end.

Just finished my first cup of double mocha in my Henry mug. Tasted good, so a second cup sounds in order!
Have a good day, Everybody! :)

Thanks, we are thankful and feel blessed. A friend of our daughter's in OK had a tornado suck up her fences and run ins a couple weeks ago, and last night that house was flattened a couple counties over from us.

Glad you all are ok! Puts my miniscule snow fall in perspective. I guess I'll get my coffee ready now.

It's 32 f and going to 42 f. It probably won't rain and will be the same tomorrow.

Coffee in the Smith and Wesson mug.

Enjoy your day.

:D

Supposed to be a very nice day today. It's already forty three degrees, and the weather guessers have promised another thirty degrees for a high of seventy three. Zero percent chance of rain. :)
Coffee is hot, and we have too key meetings today. Praying they both go well. 8-)

Up at zero dark thirty yesterday... four forty five, out the door by five fifteen so I could reach the VA parking lot by six thirty. I had an eight a.m. dental appointment. Parking... is a major problem there. I try and schedule ALL my appointments at eight, and if I have more than one... stack them starting at eight and bring a book. By seven, the handicapped spots are full. By seven thirty, the lot is full and the grass medians are filling up. :roll:

I was out by nine oh five and headed home. :D
