Maybe the radar is broken or maybe it's just showing its political affiliation ;-)

They upped it again to 10 in. The blue cloud will arrive around 1 am so we will wake up to the ensuing mess. Glad I won't be in the commute in the morning.

It must be moving slower then they guessed as our snow is supposed to start around 4 am now. If they keep pushing it out does that mean it will be more or less snow? My guess is better then theirs.

The flash freeze is coming: 12 Wednesday morning, 19 Thursday morning. And this is the "sunny South".
I get to turn off the outside hydrant cutoffs (all inside the house), roll out and drain hoses and get the hose reel close to an air compressor so I can blow it out so the freeze won't damage the rotating joint.

Got enough of the good stuff to get you through? Yep. Just sitting here counting them 5 gallon pails of beans and rice and them 5 gallon jugs of water. Got enough kerosene to warm sleeping space for a week or more without power or natural gas. Got AA cell, rechargeable and wind-up LED lighting plus oil lamps and 100 hour candles to fall back on. Might even be cooking them beans and rice on top of the kero heater. We're good.
