Well, it was a good run.
65 and breezy right now.
In the next 12 hours these parts are expecting a 40 degree drop in temp, winds gusting to 50 knots and rain. Then it gets bad; rains turns to sleet then to snow followed by 24 hours of 30 knot wind from the northwest with 5 inches of lake effect snow and drifting. |

The high yesterday was about 85° and the low was 68°.
The low in the morning is supposed to be 48° and the high is supposed to be 65°. Sun morning is supposed to get down to 43°. I'm pretty sure we're all going to die. This must be the end of the world.

I grew up in No. Dakota...now in AZ...I'd never go back to any snow state.
. After the military I went back to NDSU. Had my new '67 VW in the parking lot...living on campus at the time. Had to have the clutch pushed down to start it, of course, in the cold. Let it idle for a bit...let the clutch out in neutral and it putted around the parking lot until the gear lube warmed up. 'Twas 60 below, with chill factor, that morning.

Coldest temperatures I've ever experienced was 29 below in Waterloo, Iowa I left a banana in the car and you could have driven nails with it. The snow was like flour.
I can tolerate cold temperatures better than heat and humidity. I saw 100+ in Tucson and 100+ in Houston. Completely different experiences. I thought I was going to die in Houston.

Yep, sunny, breezy, and 72 degrees yesterday here in Northern Ohio while a buddy and I were finishing my daughters new metal roof project yesterday. On the way to Outback last night for all you can eat shrimp, you could see a hell of a lightening storm off to the West......I commented to my wife, and pointed "right there is the start of Winter".
Supposed to have the first snow of the season tonight. |

Hell of a storm last night. It was moving at 80MPH so it didn't last long but it was intense. We never lost power but there are many areas that are still out.
Was outside around 11:30 in shorts with the dog. Took him out this morning and it's a whole nother story!

I was in the middle of painting my pickup truck outside when the rain hit.
I got the base paint repairs in and half the truck taped up for a Razzle Dazzle - Zentangle design, white on black. I was prepared to paint the truck in the dark with a LED flashlight in my mouth. It works, I did the paint putty sanding, primer and finish coat on the bed that way late Friday. Calling a friend today with a heated garage to finish up my rattle can paint job on Sunday. Somehow I knew about possible sleet on Saturday but did not know about rain late Friday. I was worried about the forecast of high winds, but they didn't show up until after dark with the temperature drop. Long underwear and double wool socks on today. Winter is here to stay, being told it will be a nasty one.
