Arctic Blast

We now have the first day above zero in some time.  It is way up to 32. Yippee!!  It has been so cold that so many people have had their pipes freeze up this winter.  Whereas, they have never had their pipes freeze before.  Also many city water mains have broken and caused people to go without water for awhile while they fix it.  We are going to get more snow tonight and wind to blow it around again.  Then we will have one day of 22 degrees and the bottom is going to drop out again Sunday night for the next three days.  I heard it hasn't been this cold since 1982.  I remember those years.  The 70's were extremely cold too with lots and lots of snow and ice.  Many bad winters back then and we didn't miss them but we are getting a taste of them again this winter.

Winter Storm Warning

It is like my husband says, the weatherman never misses the bad stuff. And sure enough we got more snow again. First we got some freezing rain and then it changed to snow and was really coming down. The wind is blowing so hard you could hardly see the neighbors for awhile. But now it has slowed down and I hope it is done. We were lucky we didn't have to be anywhere today but tomorrow we have a doctor appointment to get to so hope it clears up and the roads are clear by then.
