'Bout to get reeeaaaaal cold, who's ready?

[jharkin]

And now ... Spring decides to show up. High 50s, pouring rain thunder and lightning. Waaaaa?

With this passing cold spell be grateful that you haven't woken up to this in the garage. Keep those pipes warm enough to avoid freezing. The consequences can be very pricey.

Once the temps got back to springtime levels I let the Englander go cold for the week. I needed to replace the door glass gasket anyway. Burned a little oil this week, but today I got the basement wood bin stocked up again. It looks like it won't be as cold as it was last time, but regardless, we'll be ready.

 

[Dix]

Ready. Again.

Damn it.

Oh... great timing. I'm down to maybe 1/4 cord left at the house. Might be shuttling wood up from the wood lot in the dark one cold evening this week. I hope that pesky ignition switch (assumed... not yet confirmed to be the source of my woes) on the tractor doesn't leave me stranded with a dead tractor in the back yard.

Maybe it's time to start keeping clydesdales.

 

[Seasoned Oak]

I guess the people at farmers almanac are saying" i told you so" about now. Coldest winter for awhile so far.

John Bolaris called this one back in September or October. I remember him saying, "repeated shots of very cold air this winter... not continuous cold, as there will be some warmer days separating these cold fronts, but there will be several colder than usual arctic fronts hitting us."

WSI Energy, for the last one, I believe the are in Andover. copied off twitter. the others also from twitter, bastardi and dr,ryan maue. I think they are what they are on sizing the copies. i'll see if I can improve the sizing, the last one is an ensemble mean.
