    Where as we get it every winter over here. . When a warm front comes in it brings and /or creates moisture. When that moisture touches things that are frozen it sticks to it. And , this is just what I think , I think that it develops a polarity issue or something and attracts more moisture to it. We get so much moist air from the coast that we get lots of hoar frost. It builds up on Everything. It builds up So thick you can't tell a live spruce from a dead one.
    5 above. Poplar in the stove.

    Sitting at -8 C feels -13 C, or 18 F feels 8 F this morning. It's actually colder than I thought it would be but still way above normal. Poplar chugging along.

    3/4 to an inch of rain forecast for us on Monday and 40 degrees. With the ground being froze, that ought to make things interesting.

    Wonder if they get a "kickback" from the grocery chains for that?

    Late tomorrow night into Tues. afternoon we're supposed to get 4-8" of snow. We'll see if that changes. It usually slows down quite a bit once it hits Gaylord (about 35 miles west of us) and we end up with a fraction of the forecast.
    Anyway, 37 OAT right now, headed to 41. Snow is gone from the roof, and quite a bit from the ground, replaced by ice. 73 IAT.
