I guess middle Georgia gets a lot of 1’ to 3’ snowstorms.

OP seems pretty knowledgeable.

I got curious and checked Havre MT up on the Hi Line.

66 F in Havre right now.

67 F where I’m at in San Antonio.

‘Course, lows next week are predicted to be in the 40’s here, -15 in Havre.

I have a son in Seattle. He says that there 2" of snow can be a disaster because of the hills. Nobody has snow tires and most can't drive in it. They have wrecks everywhere.

54F here yesterday Birdie, at elevation, in February. Rain last night, Snow this afternoon perhaps.

Not negatives, but temps in the low teens by Wed night.

Been a bit of a weird one here for sure.

It was 59 fricken' sunny and calm degrees here this afternoon.


Unreal, beyond nice for the 2nd of February in northeast Montana.

Too nice, getting a little dusty...



We sorted off a few more replacement heifers and they were panting.


I was shedding clothes!

The part that gets me is when the weatherman tells everyone to bring their pets in the house tonite because it's going to dip below freezing. Pzzzzzzztttttttttt...........guess what weatherman, animals that live outside are used to the weather. I've seen my farm dogs sleep out on the snow, in zero weather.

I don't want a pet that I have to shelter from the weather..............period.

Guys are already bitching about the temps next week. They say single digits up to maybe 20. I was on a weather website from back home and showed them AK's predicted windchills. They shut up.

One guy made me laugh, he said no wonder we got that place for so cheap.

It depends on the weather.

Windchill is a nasty thing.

We got 18" maybe 20" a bit north of Boston last night. I'd appreciate a quick lesson on proper etiquette as far as Yankee whining, if possible. Want to make sure I conform to proper standards and all. TIA.
