    So..........not really a big thing then......this apocalypse?

    I'll radio wildwest and have her cancel the FHC air drop and return to the hangar.

    Here in the southwest corner of Michigan, this is what we got overnight. Currently 32.9° Snow is already falling/dripping outta the trees.

    IMG_3497.jpeg The picnic table is my unofficial official measuring spot as it’s some what protected from the wind. We are right around 8 inches and still coming down off and on supposed to be over around dark. IMG_3496.jpeg About to get the wheeler and dogsled out to pull the kids around for a bit. We made omelets for breakfast and there is come chicken soup going on the wood stove. A nice winter day to relax and enjoy without the usual hustle and bustle around weekends have become.

    The wife and I watch very little TV, She will watch an occasional movie and the Food Channel. I watch none, and neither of us watch the news, so we aren't exposed to the "we're all gonna die" weather idiots. We got 6" as of now and still snowing hard. last night we had a bonfire all stacked to go, when it started snowing we lit it up, a good time was had.

    Scotty Overkill Wow! love the pictures of your place in the snow. The nighttime mode really sets off the place.

    What a dud of a storm for us. The fear mongering weather forecasters in the area should be kicked squarely in the nuts for what they do.

    It was rather nice.

    Just changed from rain to snow here a few minutes ago.
    Wunderground is now forecasting 1 to 3 for accumulation total.

    It’s pretty much wrapped up here. A hair over 8” is what we got. There’s some abrupt elevation changes close by so I don’t doubt we had more locally.
