SNOW!

Check out the Doppler. Pretty big storm going through Northern MN. And school's canceled tomorrow!

 

Unfortunately, that means I will be digging out relatives and friends all day...

 

Oh well, things will work themselves out, and I'll make some material money too.

We were in Hutchinson this weekend with family, and made the drive back to Sioux Falls today. Most of the storm went to the north and west, but what we got was enough. Everything from rain freezing on the road to snow blowing so hard I couldn't see the road off the hood of the car. Saw one guy that wedged his car between a lightpole and a streetlight, and another that wedged himself between a parked car and a large tree. It was a long ride home. Good luck up in your area, hope you don't have to go too far.

Stay warm tomorrow, the weather channel says that the windchill is going to be -32 tomorrow. Gotta love midwest weather, huh? Here in the Chicago suburbs, it was mid 40's all day, tomorrow, the high is 18. LOL.

When your are on the verge of freezing to death, Alcohol actually makes you freeze to death faster,

making your extremitys (hands, feet, ears) feel more cofortable, but makes your core temperature drop like a rock.

 

just sayin'

Yeah, But you seem to care a lot less.

I had to wear my neoprene waders and boots this morning while delivering routes (-9 windchills about -15). Do you think straight snow and ice will mess up the felt soles or any-thing? I had to ditch my hat because i was sweating too much in that get-up. I have some neo. socks/wader-inserts that i will try in the morning instead. The hardest part is that i can't wear gloves (too many keys, combo pad-locks and key-pads), so the first 20-30 minutes realy hurts the hands till the body adjusts. Luckily it is only a couple of hours.

who said i didn't care? :hyst:

it for your own good, that information

OK, I should have written that thought out more...

 

 

Yeah, But you seem to care a lot less after a couple of rum & pepsis if you freeze to death or not.

 

And since i use to do search and rescue for a local volunteer group i KNOW that alcohol will indead make you die quicker and/or easier. Saw a couple of homonid pop-sicles because of too much drink over the years. It just makes sitting around waiting for the thaw more entertaining...if you don't count the hang-over.
