    I got 20 inches of snow 25 miles south of Duluth, MN. Now the forecast is for temps in the teens and windy!!! The schools have been off for the last 2 days. Some areas got over 36" of snow. I did spend 4 hours outside with neighbors and kids snowmobiling, shoveling, plowing, plowing, shoveling, plowing.......we did have a nice bonfire though.

    ...and snow predicted in California's central valley on Saturday morning; about a once in 40 year occurrence. My son will be playing soccer in it at 08:10 hours. Think I'll watch from inside the truck.

    While we are at 40 now, NOAA is forecasting 3-7 inches overnight. Then turning cold with more snow Sunday.

    Hey Jim, winter will be here over the weekend with freezing rain Sunday possible. Fire up the generator, there goes the power.

    We have a Cummings 50 KVA natural gas powered gen with the automatic switching. The Gen is turned by a GM V8 industrial engine. I' m ready.


    Low 80s today. I had to run the AC in my truck. Now it has pulled back to a tolerable 79 degrees so I just have the door open. :Dou:
