Well, they juast annouced all the schools in the area are closed.
President Obama has postponed his visit to Penn State tomorrow due to the weather.
And Wednesday is Groundhog day.
Checked the generator, good to go.
I always wonder why people panic and run out to get milk and bread.
When they should really be worried about having toilet paper

flyfishingfanatic i'v worked in retail for 20 years, you'd be surprised at what people run out and get when they think that they are gonna get snowed or iced in... Still fry's my brain as to what peoples minds tell them they need........

Usually in 2 or 3 days everything is all cleared away.

Thanks for the offer, but I'll be fine. Filled up some flush buckets and turned the water off. I'll fix it when it's daylight.
Shakey ride over the mountain from Portage, PA, to Altoona. Traffic was crawling and the roads were covered with gritty-like sleet and then it began to rain. A few miles further it began to sleet once more. Got to work safely, but after midnight tonight into tomorrow supposed to be the worst period of weather. I'll see how tomorrow goes. I may have to sit home work on some rods and tie flies. All the schools are closed in many counties.
I'm getting low on sunscreen.
But this is the Desert! Not too bad yet, but suposed to hit 7 degrees tomorrow. Bundled the pipes up.
Wind supposed to get bad with the cold - Brrr. No golf this week.
one summer day we were driving out of Nashville, TN, on our way west, and the radio weatherman came on to say that the day would be mild, with sunny skies and temps in the low 80s.
his sign-off?
"So don't forget to rush out and get your milk, bread, and bathroom tissue!"
personally, we put cake mixes on the list, too.
fly fishing and baseball share a totally deceptive simplicity; that's why they can both be lifelong pursuits.
