New for 2021, the New Dodge Ram Tauntaun Package.  For when you can't take a snow day!

[Dieselfuture]

We're supposed to get some good snow here, quad cities ia, in next day or so, saying could be up to a foot. Not a lot for some of you but good amount around here. Usually they exaggerate by half, it'll still be interesting, can't wait for my work commute 70 ml one way right through the center of higher promised accumulations. All the safe drivers will be out on the roads driving ford's. Funny thing is some of them drive extra careful before snow even starts coming down, just because they seen the news the slow down ahead of time  oh it'll be fun ....

I'm very glad to hear California is getting some weather down there. It's been 6 mos. I hear since they've had rain and now a switch has been pulled. I hope it snows on IBMobile too he deserves it. He has more firewood than a mountain man in Alaska and no snow, no cold, no rain. That's all about to change.

It changed here.  Last week the temps were over 90° and dry.  Today it's 52° rain and windy, that's my winter weather.  The last time I saw snow at my house...never.

In 1967 I was living in Cumberland, R.I. and this house wasn't built yet so I still stand by "The last time I saw snow at my house...never".

.... And also

 

[JAG1]

ME78569, what do you heat your home with? Also do you have to use block heaters on all your vehicles?

[Me78569]

Mostly tears

 

 

But actually fuel oil and also a heat pump.  Heat pump works down to -15* 

 

 

My car doesnt the wifes does.

 

 

[JAG1]

Man... that's 30 below F.  I can't imagine what that's like. Woodstoves introduce a lot of dirt in the house

 

Is it so cold you can loose fingers in a matter if minutes w/o gloves?

[Me78569]

Yea I don't know how long, but it happens.  It is common to not leave the house without everything needed to walk home.    Wife still had to go into the school for work lol.   Back in Colorado Springs they would cancel at sub zero.

Nice sunrises though.

 

[Mopar1973Man]

Looks cold... (Brrrrr...)

 

Yeah I get it. Like here its get down to subzero I'd rather just stay in. I've got plenty of food and supplies just not dry firewood this year...

Do you still have much furniture left?

 

Me78569, so those tracks on the frozen river below are from snowmobiles. What a fun way to travel.... love a run into town that way. Bet you'll be getting one before too long. 

[Mopar1973Man]

Like I've got about 2 cords of wood but it all wet. Now it raining down here. I tried building a fire in the fireplace to add a little heat but as wet as the wood is its just not burning. 

[Doubletrouble]

 I have the same issue. Found a few dead standing ash trees, dropped one figuring it was good and dry since all bark was falling off but the moisture content was at 30%. Ash usually dries very fast so I took it anyway. Then the weather turned a bit colder and have been using wood faster than I anticipated. Now I'm down to the damp stuff. Not getting the heat or consistent burns from it that I normally would.
