Seems the "Weather Guessers" are in a quandary!! Depending which way the wind blows, they are guessing any where from 2-8in!!! ::facepalm:: I am hoping it is on the low side and not the high!!! 20 now, warming to the 40s then the snow arrives this pm and all day Tues!!! ::facepalm:: John :D

I sure wish I had the kind of job where I could say "I'll get that project finished somewhere between the next 2 and 8 days" and not be fired. What a joke meteorologists are - I now solely rely on noaa.gov which seems to have the most unbiased forecast where they tell it to you straight and then you decide if you like (a) Expect At Least This Much or (b) Most Likely Snowfall or (c) Potential For This Much. In the case of this storm, (a) would have been 100% correct although the TV meteorologists were spouting (c).

A few inches of snow barely makes the news up here. If we don't get any usually does. We got about 3 inches yesterday and some areas around here got between one and two feet but nobody even went to the store unless it was your grocery shopping day. We have been in a holding pattern of a few degrees below zero at night and, if we get sunshine, we'll see about 20 mid-day. I'm doing a siding job on a cabin, and it does tend to make me want to start a little later and go home a little earlier but then again I sort of retired 8 years ago (for about 2 weeks) so I guess the world won't stop if I slow down a little. ___Dave

Had a storm with a lot of wind Saturday night. Lost a huge Limb on a 200 year old Live Oak tree at my mother old place.
My Brother in Law is standing beside it. Lots of sawing.

Larry, thats a job right there. The live oak is some of the heaviest wood I've encountered. Along with sycamore. They both hold alot of water. I cut trees for a living before I started the powerline job. Then my knees started giving me trouble.
