Lets all go to clems place for a barbecue!!! Ya that limb is still hanging in woodlands but i am gonna have to deal with it this year
Power flickered a couple of times but it is still on, Branches down all over but, Nothing major I have seen yet EDIT< First pic upper right you can see my power line and cable
Personally, I'd rather have thief ice than the nasty rain! Since it was cold her then got hot n humid all the ooarxhes concrete are sweating like crazy and every thing is wet!
We have had enough rain that if it were snow it would prolly be over 2 feet. Been raining since I posted it started, often times heavy. My estimation is an easy 3 inches!
We got 3' of rain Friday through Sunday, got in the low 60's Saturday. 32 here now and back to burning Ash.
It was just under 20° this morning. Got a little snow today, but just a little. They say it is suppose to be -15 - -20 below zero on Christmas Eve! What the ..........? This has been some crazy weather so far this year. And I think "they" were right when "they" said we were going to have a "real" winter this year!
I spent most of the day getting rid of the ice from the driveway, I had to cut one red maple that had a heavy lean over the driveway. Since the driveway is done I'll work on the back, it's a mess. Lots of pine branches that came down in the driveway that I threw in the woods.
Looks like about 6 this morning. Boiler snacking on some long splits of Ash. Ran into a bunch that was cut around 22-24 inches. Nice.
-10 air temperature,-26 windchill outside.Will probably drop a couple more degrees by sunrise. Coldest morning in almost 4 years.Just restarted fire,its already 73 thanks to that 3 year+Mulberry,old dead Apple & big chunk of 1 yr old White Pine...Looks like Honey Locust/White Oak for the rest of the day.
Hey Thistle. How you doing out there man? Sounds cold. We have had a few like that as well already this year. Suppose to be like that tonight here. Right now everything is as still as can be. No wind. Trees are all still sagging from the ice. Luckily we did not get as much as expected in my area. Big relief. Glad to see you are having fun keeping the house nice and toasty. Great feeling eh. Jeesh, by the looks of your signature it is almost time for you to buy another saw. Isn't it?
Just under 8 inches snow ending Sunday morning here,may see another inch late tonight with that new system moving in.Supposed to be 17 today & 30 on Christmas Day,that's pretty much the high for the week here.Upper teens to upper 20's after that through the weekend.
We have a load of cherry, maple & some elm going, it's 10 degrees this morning going down to -14 tonight.
Hangin at 23º here and supposed to get down around 10º tonight. Got home from work about 3 and loaded up a mixed load...cherry,white oak,hickory and beech. Wife is making a pecan pie and I will make dirt pudding after Christmas eve service. Woke up to about 2 inches of new snow this morning and that really made my day for Christmas eve.
