    Looks as though we're snapping right back to rain reality too Scotty Overkill ... our decent 12" of power/granule snow on Sunday, with wind chill temps way below zero now, is gonna get a dump of rain Thurs... :headbang:... I always crack up when the local news folks go on and on about how nice it's gonna be on Thurs (40 degree temps)... as that rain falls on all ground/surfaces that are long frozen solid... :picard:... what could possible go wrong.

    Well, that was a fun winter, looks like nothing but cold and bare ground for the rest, time for indoor projects until the lakes unfreeze enough to paddle

    My drive is a frozen, rutted mess. I was hoping it would freeze before we needed to drive out, but nope, slushy mess, then it froze. I scraped it a bit, but don't feel like raking stone back into the drive come spring.

    I am not a fan of thaws until spring.

    Weather guessers are saying something about up to 10 inches of snow Sunday into Monday with a low on Wednesday of -25. Gotta love winters in Wisconsin:hair::shiver::shiver:

    Just noticed that one of my stacks sunk in the mud during the torrential rain following the snow and tipped over.

    I got to watch a tower drop like that about 25 years ago. It was unbelievably lackluster. :confused:
    Still fun to watch! We were watching from about 300 feet away.
