    We’re under our third winter weather warning this year, Which is a lot for us. I’m going through some hardwoods this season! I’m saving on the electric though, have yet to cut it on!

    Glad your burning some wood, what's a winter weather warning? Does it just tells you its going to be cold? Not trying to be sarcastic, just don't know, we had 13 below this morning. That's normal here.

    Had to go to the city this morning. Roads not the best. Still some ice on them plus the fresh snow this morning. Nasty driving.

    Well this particular one is calling for 2-4 inches of snow and a little ice. Gonna drop down to 10-15 for a couple nights. That’s really cold for us

    We dont get the snow up here like we did when I was a kid and it usually melts before we get a new covering. We had three snow storms late last winter and the snow melted between storms every time.

    I would say thankfully but even though we have had some cold stretches early, it's still been a warm and dry winter. We have had some rather rare for se Wisconsin lake snow today, but the ground has been bare nearly all winter.

    Comment of the day.

    Southern winter weather makes for some hilarious you tube videos.

    Funny how location changes all perception, we are 24 inches above normal snowfall and 12 degrees colder than average this year. Sitting at a balmy 4 degrees.

    I am jealous. We had the week long freeze, but it's been overall warmer and very dry.

    54BDF992-2534-469B-88D3-636621837F81.jpeg I took this before the snow ended but We got about an inch here. The cold is what’s tough. 8 this morning. Spent the day fixing busted pipes:hair:
    I like cold and burning but this single digit stuff you guys up north can have it!
    Got her rolling right now at about 600. Don’t plan on waking up to a 56° house in the morning
