My favorite part is when it snows when it's REALLY cold, and then the wind comes up to 20 mph and blows
that super-light snow into a good old-fashioned ground blizzard. Looks like one of those coming Sunday.
NNW at 27 mph. Then, the clouds will part and deep freeze sets in yet again.

More like that area just above the brush, About 750mm (30 inches) with the bottom 1/2 compressed some. Jim

And ... that snow hardens like concrete, looking forward to Monday

After those ground blizzards our snow isn?t that white. The drifts are tainted ?snirt? from the open fields and banks along the roads have a mixture of road grime. Our tar roads on the other hand take on a white hue from the salt and our vehicles tend toward the same shade of ?grime?.

Even down here in southwest Iowa, that is usually what happens AFTER I just got done clearing out the drive.

Our family arrived from Germany and first settled in Lewiston Minnesota..... cannot imagine why they ever left and moved hundreds of miles south ?.

Sorry, I couldn't resist this.

In-too-deep,

Don't come down to the tropical part of the state. LOL!

We are slated for 6-9, possibly 12 inches of white crud...and win gustings up to 45 mph on Sunday.

At least with snow the pot holes are
filled!

The red dots indicate a pot hole in
Indiana!

My daughter grew up in Texas. She got a full-ride plus stipend sports scholarship to the school of eng at UM. We visited on a warm sunny day in later June, and she started that fall. By early Nov, she wanted to give up, but she stuck it out through 4 of the coldest, snowiest winters since the 20s. One year, I went to visit for her event, and that was the weekend the MetroDome roof caved in due to snow for the last time.

It was brutal 5 years.

Born and raised here...came back from Army in "67, enrolled at U of MN Ag school, made friends with a fellow from Botswana. He"d never experienced cold...at Christmas break he said long underwear wasn"t enough, he had all of his bags packed and was ready to fly back to Africa. Changed his nind and did stick it out, tho. Often think about him yet.
