Wicked Cold Weather This Week

[tmwinds]

I went to the HEB this morning. I think the whole town was there. It was hard to find a cart and the shelves were being stripped.
Now, this “cold front” is only supposed to last 4 days! What are they panicking about?

I don’t need bread and milk. I went to the liquor store.

That should help you freeze to death quickly, but you’ll be real happy about it.

Anybody care to ask me why I moved to Arizona forty-six years ago ? I dealt with the Blizzard of 78 in Central Ohio , and said , NOPE ! I'M OUTTA HERE !
Supposed to be mid seventies tomorrow . Mid fifties and sunny when we'll be shooting at Ben Avery in the morning ! I have Gloves and Thermals for that severe winter cold .

-13 with a wind chill of -35 in central Iowa

Sorry to hear that Ron. I saw the alert to beware of exploding trees with the subzero weather. What kind of bullshit will they come up with next.

Ain't bad here today....

As a kid, when there were winter snow storms, mom made pancakes/bacon for breakfast. Because we would need energy for playing outside.

What’s the word on the street in regards to water in your area. I keep hearing about the whole Colorado river system being almost to the point where they can’t generate power it’s so low. Isn’t that what Cali and AZ exist on? Anyone talking about this in your neighborhood? Because this year, we’ve yet to have snow, again. Please advise.

Good lookin' stack, ... hardwood? Locust?

Oak and locust. We burn hardwood here in pa. Not really a ton of softwoods around at least in my area.

21 degrees in DFW. last night at HEB store was half empty, and full of groceries. Now, 3 days ago, that was a different matter. I cooked some veg soup today and braised some short beef ribs, w white wine, carrots, tomato paste, garlic and some bay leaf!

Yup! Snow fort time!! We’d stay out until our toes turned blue.
These days, the News Idiots tell everybody it’s “DANGEROUS” to go out. WIMPS!!!

12 years old, got my first red fox with a shotgun. Snow storm during Christmas break, left the house and went out along the railroad tracks. Spotted the fox curled sleeping downwind side of a willow patch. Shot it, it ran out of sight in the blowing snow. I started tracking, couldn't see the railroad right-a-way when I found it dead in the snow covered field. So I followed my tracks back, with the fox. Mom/dad couldn't believe I got it. Dad made some calls, said he would get 30$ for it Monday at the pool hall in town. Told me to get more,have ever since.
