    20* outside right now, dusting of snow on the ground, P43 keeping the house a comfy 71*. May bring in a few bags of the doug firs for the next couple days. And sip a little tequila before I turn in.

    Got close to 2 in of snow. Town actually plowed, didn't look like much when I went to bed. Left the P43 on a constant burn with the feed at 2.5. House a comfy 72 when I got up at 5:30, only used about 1/2 a bag in 8 hrs. Love those Vermont pellets, great heat output.

    I'm guessing 4 plus maybe 5" over yonder. About to head out and push the sn*w blower around.

    I got around 3" of light fluffy snow. Didn't' bother with the blower, just shoveled the driveway, gate fences and ramps. Town just did one pass with the grader so no berm at the end of the driveway - didn't bother with any paths though.

    Well this gimp managed to get his new 'puter out of it's wrappings and partially installed yesterday called it quits after I downloaded an iso image of an even newer version of Linux mint. Now I'll be totally up to date.

    If it makes you feel any better, I'm in the light blue area. I might get the blower going today just in case!

    Didn't go for the Mint 21.1 beta (more like a release candidate really)? Used to run Mint, switched to Arch 3 years ago.

    Current forecast map shows seacoast area of NH to get mix to rain. But the the 2 inches of snow on the ground when we were forecast just rain the other night leads me to believe I should get the snowblower ready tomorrow.

    My 18 went belly up, even LTS versions have a Self Life. Now to find out what 7.04 of Oracle's Virtual box is having problems with a least the VM is still running, there are logs I can look at, it has to be something simple.

    He, for some reason, seems to like being close to Hartford. I would think he would have been better off being where you are Pete.

    6-12" for my area. Roof hasn't dumped the 3" of snow from the other day yet. It should dump today then start snowing tonight. The 2nd day all year I HAVE to go into the office. That means I leave at 5 am, then won't get home until 5-6 pm. Once I get home, I'll have to shovel the roof dumpage on the driveway and the 40' ramp.

    All that timing could have been better - like the roof dumping yesterday so I could have dealt with it in short sections during breaks. But, at least I won't have to drive in the teeth of the storm and deal with all the idiots that think they can drive better than they can, so that's something.
