We're supposed to get rain on Saturday.  It might have been snow, if it wasn't going to be in the 60s here that day.

Yeah we're supposed to get another half foot of snow Saturday...if today's snow showers ever end. It has been snowing here straight since 10pm Monday night.

Saturday's weather would cancel my State Guard drill. Which would be kind of a downer because it would be the first one I am teaching lessons at, entering the annals of proud teaching grogs like Toonces, BB, etc.

Oh well there's always next drill.

Fucking hell - it was 24° out here at the bus stop today!


It was 20 F at my bus stop this morning, and windy.

After this snow storm, I'm going to have to fix my car.  After driving it over the ice and snow of 16 winters, a piece of plastic skid plate came loose and is flopping around. 

I could probably live without it, but I'm an engineer and I have a bin of zip-ties, so I just have to fix it.

Over night predicted low here in Fla. is 39 degrees. YIKES! If the temp gets below 35, all natural-born Floridians spin ourselves into a cocoon made of sun tan oil and old flip-flops and hibernate under our beds until July. We can be revived early by playing Jimmy Buffet tunes.

I thought you kept the cocoons in a heated pool.

An indoor pool would be just about right now but all I got is an outdoor one and it's still a little chilly for cocoons or family jewels. It has been a really strange winter. Very warm here but without any rain. Not even one single frost at my house.  :o   March can go either way, stay winter, become spring or both. Right now it looks to be considering all it's options and cannot decide.  #:-)

So, I thought you guys might find this of interest.  Tuesday in New Jersey...pretty damn epic.

I got a few here in RI, but it wasn't lined up hollow like these waves in this video.
