It's 24 here now. Not supposed to get above 30 today.
These pics are looking out the side door...



Our wood stove is cranking too, Roy but that's our primary heat. Our emergency equipment is kerosene hurricane lamps, bath tub full of flushing water, Containers full of drinking water and a neighbor with a Kubota tractor.

Your Flamingo's look cold Pat :laugh:  It was like that here all last week. Spent a lot of quality time blowing and shoveling snow.

I don't shovel snow except to clear off the steps. If it is too much snow to drive(any), we don't.  :thumbsup:

We are between 10-12" right now and still snowing.  I made another string today and reserved another. My shop is about 30 minutes away...kinda wishing I could be holed up there. I could be working on my next bow.

My grandson has been somewhere in NC to ski. And is driving back to SC right now.  Hope there's lodging available along the way cause I don't think the weather you all are describing is amenable to travel.

56* and partly sunny here along the foothills of the Rockies.

It’s on it’s way here for late tonight. The weather guessers are saying that we might get a foot or so. Not great for work tomorrow. We store all our lumber and skids for shipping outside because of a lack of space.

Started here, long way to go to meet their predictions.

I don't care, fire in fireplace and meatloaf in the oven. Wife is a great cook.

Let it snow...

We had some freezing rain and 2" of snow last night, the trees are sagging,  we dodged a Bullitt last night .
In 1994 we had freezing rain and trees and power lines were all over the roads and we had to cut our way out, some people were out of power for 30 days. WE got help from 4 or 5 states to get power back on.
we should be ok for now, no rain or snow for tonight and it will be melting tomorrow :bigsmyl:

LongCruise, let us know if he makes it ok! I got friends in Woodruff SC which is below Greenville. They got about 5"s which is not typical for that area!

I already called out for work tomorrow. Got the fireplace going, going to dig out tomorrow. Peacefull day!

Mostly freezing rain from Greenville SC south and east. I've heard road conditions are bad. I-86 at SC-GA state line was closed earlier.

I made some different leather grips for a new '59' 64" Kodiak my friend built me. We had exchanged ideas and wood over the years. Didn't know he was going to build me a bow with walnut from my grandfather's farm in Southern Missouri.
After looking at the different ideas I went with the brown dyed white-tailed hide that I picked up at a flea market somewhere. I finally found a good use for it. JF

8 inches of snow and more coming today.

It's beautiful cause we are retired:)

Just gave the 6 regular deer their morning corn breakfast.

We ended up with about 12". If it had been all snow and not some sleet it would have been more. I just got back from a walk with the Maggie and Rosie, our dogs. They love the snow and ran way ahead of me. By the time I got back home it felt like I had cinder blocks on my feet. The snow is still loose and fluffy. The temp stayed between 27 and 25 degrees all day and night. It's heading up now; At 28deg. Sure is beautiful and especially with the full moon.
