Hey Randy , Maybe you should check it might be warmer in parts of the 49th state then where you are in Tenn. Hope that you are doing OK. Don

Back when I lived in Nebraska for a couple winters, I remember that when they predicted 12 inches or more of snow, we'd normally just get a dusting. When they predicted rain ending in a few snow showers, that was when we got lots and lots of snow.

the ice that coated our area is rapidly and mostly disappeared .... they say there is a strong possibility of another one roaring in over this coming weekend

What we now have is hard slick ice coating over top of 3 inch of snow and with temps staying below 33 F it is near impossible to walk on...like a skating ring all around the yard! Buster has a hard time trying to poop squat without sliding away! :lol: :lol: Now they say a coastal storm may come thru again this weekend to pack more on top. Driveway is cleared and dry after clearing it right after last storm and streets are clear.

Hatchdog, I like that👍. Might be a little hard on the fairways.
Forty, I don't expect to see anything but packed snow in the driveway for at least another month😆
This last blow on Monday I cleared my property to get my car in may driveway and then 3 neighbors. As long as you are trying to do for yourself I will help.

The forecast is up to about 2 1/2 inches for tomorrow. That's a blizzard around here. I'm hoping the roads are going to be clear afterwards. I would like to go take some pictures with snow, but since It's supposed to get down into the teens tomorrow night, I'm thinking the roads are going to be too slippery for travel. Although I haven't had much experience lately, I can drive in snow. Having said that, I'm not reckless, either. A few pictures aren't worth a side trip into the ditch, or a tree.
