Ominous forecast today

Heavy snowfall, high winds, pounding surf. Was hoping to get a pass on this storm but looks like direct hit here. (PEI) Nor'easter the worst kind, guess I'll go back to bed. We're getting 40 sentimeters or kilometers or kilograms of snow. (A foot of snow)

Lately I can't seem to spell correctly, must be the covid. Lost my sense of spell, I guess.

I hear you, Dennis. The wife was supposed to have her post surgery x ray and consult with the surgeon today. We might not make it to Kentville.

We'll see.
Stay snug.

Not going anywhere today. The wife called the fracture clinic and canceled her appointment. The horses are shut in away from the driving snow. I tested the generator yesterday.

Best

Why not? This was yesterdays arrival, we have this ship fairly often so I didn't think anyone would want to see it.

But it does make retirement even sweeter.

Just say screw it, and stay at home nice and safe and not have to get out in that crap. You have been there, done that. Enjoy watching other people struggle with the work.

-22 C here. A little snow coming our way.

Looks like you have another system coming through on Monday according to the Windy.com site.

^^^ I would be more concerned about the wind speed for those days.
If it's calm...pffft.
