Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
I'm pulling and reloading a batch of 357s. My scales were messed up and there's not enough powder.
I pulled a couple and confirmed that they were loaded way too light with my electronic scale. There's always
the problem of the bullet not clearing the barrel or have you ever heard the term, "detonation"? That's
when there is too little powder and the mix causes a huge explosion that can blow a gun up.
Either way, they need to be reloaded.

About 18F now with an inch of new snow then the temps will get down to -16F in the next few days. Happiness is a warm Henry.cooperhawk wrote: ↑Wed Jan 25, 2023 9:45 amLight Snow, 21°F, Humidity 100%, Barometer 29.85 in
Snow. Patchy fog before 10am. High near 29. North northwest wind 5 to 15 mph.
Total daytime snow accumulation of around an inch possible.
We're on a temp roller coaster. Warm today, sub zero tomorrow night.

It was a cold (for here anyway) 37° this morning. I just cooked some steal cut oats, toast and coffee for breakfast.

Re: Our Morning Coffee and Weather
29 heading to 34 and overcast. A little bit of snow coming in tomorrow then cold. Sunday is forecast to be -5 to -15 windchill with an actual temp in the single digits to the teens. Sounds like a great day to watch some football. I’m getting low on firewood, the cold temps this winter have had me running a fire all day.
Not much going on today other than later this afternoon the dog goes to the vet to get the staples removed from his belly. He is healing very well and the incision is nice and clean with no redness. The vet should be pleased.
