Yeesh. This time we got no big media coverage like we have for the last several. Just quiet changes on the National Weather service web sight. It seems we got the northern end of all the nasty storms hitting Tennessee and Alabama.
Anyway, we are a big blob of ice. Like we need more.
Our whole winter season this year has had one theme. Ice. It rain/sleets, thaws some, refreezes etc. So again there is a long list of schools having snow days. Today is mostly south and east of us.
UPDATE: 12:30pm Well we are once again in a winter storm warning with 6 to 10 inches expected. Don't forget our ice. What fun.
Well, I'll be getting a lot of indoor stuff done. They really should have canceled school today.
UPDATE: 7:30pm Have we been dropped into the middle of Little House on the Prairie or something??!! In all the years of winter storms at this address I have never seen anything quite like this. We will be getting our full amounts of snow predicted or more and yes, there is a little tinge of ice mixed into it. Ok, so usually before a storm I feed and water my chickidoos inside their coop and set the shovel outside to dig them out after the coast is clear. Tonight I had to shovel my way into the coop just to shut the door. I had no idea the wet, stuff falling had so much bite attached to it. It looked rather innocent from the view through the window.
The little ponies and Daisy the sheep looked like Yettie's. They have run in sheds but do you think they used them. Heck no. However, they were very appreciative to be tucked into their stalls for the evening. The big horses spent all day indoors, but they aren't raving maniacs like the little ponies are.
I'll take pictures tomorrow after we get up.
By the way, it was 85* F in Ouagadougou at 10:00pm their time when I talked to Rakieta earlier.
And yes, everything this evening and schools tomorrow are already being canceled.
