Re: Spring

Four more days? You guys up there have some special deal with the sun? We don't get Spring for another month down here...

I think someone is suffering from "wishful typing."

:D

Re: Spring

You only can get the deal in WI..... The sun is starting to feel sorry for us.....

Yep, -20 all week(at least), single digit hi's and a couple below zero hi's. On the Duluth news they said it's been the 2nd coldest winter on record with the average high of 4.?. Still may break the record from 1875. The only good thing about the cold is it wont be snowing anytime soon.........

The 1st big plus is the time change on March 9th...

Re: Spring

Typical TN spring starting up ... we're supposed to get some snow tonight. This almost always happens right toward the beginning of March. Cracks me up every year.

Snow = insulation.
So if the roof aint going to collapse, leave it!!:D

And more snow against the walls, remember igloos have been around a long time :laugh:

Re: Spring

What the he!! is spring? My high today was -5 below, wind made it feel like -25, now have over 9 feet of snow on the ground and can seriously walk off the first story roof into the front yard, in fact was up shoveling the roof yesterday and my wife an I were having a ball, jumping off the roof and landing in the snow, I am thinking I might be able to make one of those free style ski slopes and get 130 plus from the judges!


I can tell you what, those old diesels are sure hard to start when it gets this cold!

High of 72 expected today in SC. Going to fire up the grill again. Poor souls up there in Snow country need to pack your bags and move south. We still face back and forth temps this week. Old man winter is not ready to give up just yet
