Your nose was red, huh? Blaming it on the weather, huh? Or could it have possibly been that rather potent substance that you drank to warm yourself up after the walk? Huh?
Speaking of weather, it's supposed to be under 30 degrees F. tomorrow morning in Sacramento, CA. I hope when the DD/CS opens tomorrow morning people make multiple pots of hot coffee and hot tea because we'll need it! It might be a good idea to make big, hot pots of chili, New England clam chowder, and beef stew for everyone here.
Arrr...good eyetalian food mateys....
Sorry, pirate flashback!
Great dinner CW! We've a chance for a white X-mas this year. Hopefully it happens.

I'm ready for the spaghetti and meatballs, pile it on!
Latest information on our Nebraska winter storm is rather unimpressive for Omaha. Basically it looks like we'll start off as a short period of freezing rain on Wednesday morning and then go over to rain for the rest of the day Wednesday. It'll get cold enough for snow Wednesday night through Thursday night, but if the low tracks right over Omaha like it is forecast to do right now, we will probably be in the dry slot for much of that time and not get much of anything at all. Still, a shift of just 100 miles to the south would give us a much better shot at snow. I don't think it is going to happen, though. We'll just wait and see.

I am ready to eat!
I ordered a couple of yards of topsoil for the backyard. Dirt is cheap. Delivery isn't.
ketchup?giving it up? very unlikely in this household.
stay safe

I'll be back for a plate of spaghetti and meatballs.
Joe, there are four containers for you: one for Matt, one for Mama, and two for you to take to work with you.
There will also be some liver and onions with baked potatoes, for anyone who wants that.
I'm also making a big pot of dumplings for tonight.

Ok...that's fair. I thought I'd offer it to you first just to cover that base. Wonder how much 'Air Mail' to somewhere tropical would be...
CW that 'sketti sounds great for tonight and I'd love to pre-order a couple of plates of it along with the garlic bread!
have had several (burp) birds. Had a parakeet that would stick his whole face in your ear and then, at the top of his lungs, would holler "Teedalee" (that was his name)
Out of cats, dogs, snails, lizards, sparrows and regular birds - birds are by far the messiest. Giving up on all animals - and ketchup, too!
She who has no signature! cinscocom-tmw
pasta and meatballs sounds great. a plate for matt and 2 plates for work tonight cw please.
Joe
CW: I'll second the request for Spaghetti (Just the sauce and the cheese, please - I'm up to my eyeballs in Loveland, CO track spaghetti right now...some of you will see what I mean)
Mooks: Sorry you are so grumpy. Is some of that also because Muddy Feathers spent Friday and Saturday at Snidely[Sidney], Nebrasky and you weren't informed by BNSF or Uncle Pete?
-Copcar got snow today, we haven't yet.
Well, looks like we've been kind of on the slow side in here this morning. So, for lunch today, we'll just have vegetable beef soup, mild chili, and grilled cheese sandwiches.
Does anyone have any requests for supper? If so, please let me know by 12:30, EST, so I can get preparations started.

matthew is patiently waiting for some snow to fall.when it does he says you get the first ride down the hill out back.
Here Mook, have some left-over fudge that I got from a family Christmas gathering yesterday!
I think I gained five pounds over the weekend...
Good Monday morning to everyone! Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. It sure was beautiful, but our high for today is now, at 58, and by early evening, be down to 46, 48 degrees. Oh well, nice was it lasts.
Coffee is on, juice is made, and hot chocolate and hot tea are available. Breakfast this morning: turkey bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, or western omelletes, bagels, and whole wheat pancakes.
Hope everyone has a great morning!

I don't see anything too bad for the next week or so. It looks like maybe a few showers tomorrow and then maybe some more steady rains mid and late week. Your high temperatures look like they should remain near 50 for the next several days, so nothing too bad is in store.
This just goes to show how worthless the computer data can be. All of the runs this morning had the low passing south of Omaha on Thursday morning giving us a fairly decent snow. Now this evening's runs have it passing right on top us which will effectively put much of the heavier snow north of us. I prefer to keep my forecast the way it is until I see a bit more run to run consistency, which may be never!

WE have DSL here and both of us tried to access the Forum more than several times with no luck.
(everything else worked just fine,just no Forum.)
We have had a problem with our ISP for the last couple of days,so were not really sure where
the problem was coming from. WE were not able to access from either Mozilla,(our usual) or
Internet Explorer.(NO,we have not gone with IE 7.0 !!!(will not hopefully!!))
Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!
Good luck, Willy!!!
Just thought I would mention -
San Jose finally had the much-ballyhooed storm pass through here last night. The storm came with moderately gusting winds and three rain showers, one with small hail. The whole thing lasted fifteen minutes. The longest shower was over in less than a minute, although each shower was a real downpour. Very strange.
No problem getting into Trains here. I didn't try posting anything, though.
The computer models continue to show big inconsistencies with their solutions for this system to affect the plains midweek. The latest runs have brought it just a tad farther south again; better for areas from Omaha north and west to get some decent snow. I'm not placing any money on this solution because I imagine that by this time tomorrow, if not sooner, they will have changed again. It also looks like it could be a real slow mover with the precipitation possibly lasting from late Tuesday night all the way into Friday morning, with some breaks in between, of course. Anyway, I guess it just gives me something to look forward to.
I have my Geometry and World History Honors semester exams tomorrow. Please wish me luck.
Well, it's nice to see the forums are back up!! Guess we have sandwiches tonight, because I think it's a little bit too late for a good dinner. Sandwiches are: BLTs, open faced roast beef w/mashed potatoes & beef gravy, tuna salad sandwiches, and there's leftover pizza from last night. (Seems Trains was down this afternoon, and I couldn't log in to post anything.) Don't know if it was just our computer, or if others had the same problem.
......58.5 degrees in Muncie....Central Indiana now a bit before 1 pm....
