I was going to take a picture of my yard today, but got tied up and didn't.... I'll try to get one tomorrow.
You'll all be disappointed - I only have about 8" or so next to the driveway (which I haven't even bothered to clean out over the past few days).
On the other hand, the folks down in southern Jefferson County and all through Oswego County are struggling. Even the snowmobilers are having problems - too much snow!
Little Orwell is reporting well over 10 feet of snow.....

....Tree: Just witnessed on the news of folks up on their roofs shoveling massive thickness of snow off to prevent cave in's.....Just what I wondered on here a few days ago in an early post.
That much weight will break many structures down....Sounds like a terrible mess and really an emergency in a lot of your areas.....We'll hope for the best for any envolved.

Deshler Ohio-crossroads of the B&O Matt eats your fries.YUM! Clinton st viaduct undefeated against too tall trucks!!!(voted to be called the "Clinton St. can opener").
Good morning everyone! Joe, thanks for your contribution of the donuts this morning! I think I'll grab a plain cake donut to go with my coffee.
I've been up for about an hour, and here in Sioux Falls, South Dakota we have foggy conditions with a temperature of 17 degrees ABOVE 0. I figure this is a lot better than going in reverse with the temperature, 17 below 0, in other words. I looked up the weather conditions for Louisville, Kentucky where Locomutt and Cherokee Woman live, and I not that it is just a bit warmer there........by about four, maybe five degrees at the most. I for one, will sure be glad when Winter is finally gone!

Good Sunday morning to one and all! Looks like it's going to be a great day today. Our current temp is around 20, and we're supposed to make it up to 39 for a high today!! That will seem like a heat wave.
Joe, thanks for making the coffee, juice, etc., and for bringing in the doughnuts. They are very much appreciated, as are all my helpers around here.
Think I'll temp some of you by listing what I'm planning for our Sunday Dinner today:
1. Country fried steak2. Fried chicken3. Mashed taters w/milk gravy4. Green beans 5. Your choice of whole kernal corn or creamed corn6. Homemade buttermilk biscuits, homemade rolls7. Sauteed mushrooms & onions
And for dessert, we'll have: chocolate cake, yellow cake w/caramel icing, apple, cherry and peach pie.
Sure to hope that I've managed to whet some appetites with today's menu!
I wish everyone a great day, and I'll see you all later.

Thanks for the pizza last night. Had about 2½ slices and then ...

The menu includes fried chicken, and you want leftover pizza? Gads.
It's another beautiful day. Today's focus will be on Psalm 105.

Okay, everyone, you can find Sunday Dinner, right now, right here, on the warmer bar.
And yes, Lance, there is some pizza left from last night, in the fridge. Help yourself.

The "Weather Guessers" around here have hinted at the same for us, although
we're supposed to be on the "fringes" of it!!!
Joe, do you need an extra "BIG HAMMER" to take along with the other tools?!?!
If so, stop by here and I'll let you take one of mine!!

Sign me up!And save me a piece of peach pie a la mode please!
Joe, there are a couple of plates for you in the fridge (with your name on them, as always).
And there is more of everything on the warmer bar for tonight. Espeefoamer, got you covered on everything, including the peach pie ala mode!!
Lance, there's a covered plate with your name on it, in the fridge also, for work tonight. Just don't forget to get it.
....Joe and Walt:
And now we really don't quite know what to think since watching a round of news, etc....in the last hour, some of them are even sounding worse now. Up to 16" and 30 mph winds...! Oh, yea...turning "cold" with it or right after it. So, really....right now I do not know what to believe. Must hold off until we see some evidence of which way it "really is going to track"...If farther south, we'll miss out on some of the extremes but some say it "is" tracking north far enough to cover our total state area....Right now It's pretty uncertain.
Willy....Do you have the range with your controls to move that "Low" a bit farther south as it passes our neck of the woods.....If so hit the button. It should work as my watch listens to signals from Colorado each night to keep it accurate. So give it a try.
Walt, it sounds like the ice part might be down your way and up to I-70 down in Indy here......and snow up here....who knows...??
Quentin, ARRRRRRGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe, Does either a Chainsaw, or a "Sawzall" need to be added to the "Tool List"?!?!
Evening everyone......
Willy, would you please meet Brian, Walt, Quentin, Joe, and myself out behind the woodshed? We have something we'd like to discuss with you.......
Weather people saying 3 to 5 inches of snow tonight in the Mad City, then more snow Tuesday into Wednesday, with a shot of cold air behind it again. Has not gotten above thirty for three weeks or so, looks like we will continue the trend for at least a week and a half.
I'll take a plate for dinner tonight, CW. See everyone later....

Took the picture, but haven't done the download/upload thing yet. We're actually getting some snow here, with up to 10" promised, but that's nothing compared to the folks down south of us. North Redfield has the unofficial high, with something like 125".
Of course, the way snowfall is measured doesn't really reflect how much is on the ground. Official measurements are taken every 6 hours - but the snow can (and does) compact, so what was measured as 24" may now only be 16". But 11 feet of snow is 11 feet of snow. Even if it compacts by a third, thats nearly 8 feet...
Ah, winter....
