Coffee anyone ?

Weather patterns are just so very unruly!

You know they're saying another is coming Thursday into Friday.
30 miles north there's 7" on the ground I've got 2" mixed. Forecast keeps changing.
The carport split rest of the way.
They're covered best I can, extra straw and hay and right now at least unfroze water.
Eat my soup, taking a nap.

Cali is a BIG state LOL.

Yep!
It was below 40°F at my sister's in Huntington Beach (south of Los Angeles) yesterday. WAY beyond normal.

DW texted me that DD1 texted her that the power is out at BF's place in VA (Lake Anna region). There is only baseboard electric heat, no other source. Not good. Hopefully it is an easy fix like a blown transformer or something.

DW suggested I pick up some Covid home tests at the store I should ask about a package of hen's teeth while I'm there.

I believe they ship together...

But WHY? Are any of you feeling sick?

Not yet but if DD2 brings something home from the mountain DW would like to be able to test her. Someone she was with did test positive and DD2 couldn't get a test appointment for a week or more. By then it wouldn't matter. And of course DW could maybe get it from someone at the P.O.. I'm the least likely since I rarely go anywhere other than the grocery store once or twice a week.

All that said, we are all Pfizer boosted. But with DW's RA and 20 years on immune suppressing drugs, she's a "good" candidate for a bad outcome.

Also, some work places and schools require a neg test to return....one of the local sponsored sites offered only testing today. Hundreds were lined up!! It was on the news. Usually vaccines and testing there, today no jabs. But they will offer those tue thru sat. Some places required neg test if people had traveled, etc.,to return to work. Yeah rain, snow and lines!

Closer to ocean, just flurries. But, 60-75 mph winds blew tidal water into so many waterways spilled over, then onto roads. That was bad. I'm not there!! Got about an inch of wet snow out here, you could still see grass....had almost 2" of rain during 12 hr before. Temps are 31 with feel like of 27 right now. They say dropping more overnight. With all the rain, not much they could put on roads. They'll salt and brine main roads, bridges, overpasses tonight, where they can. Black ice will be an issue for early drivers! I don't plan to be out there. There's 6-7" of snow about an HR west of me. Lotta wrecks.

I'm hearing 10-12" or more near @farmerjan area in general.

Yrs back, when I was involved with our auto repair business, we'd all just talk about how busy we were gonna be from weather like this! Crash, Bang! $$$

Apparently about a foot at DD1's BF's near Lake Anna. Power may still be out, haven't heard.

Sunshine!! Need sunglasses. It's glorious after several days of rain and gloom. 34 on porch so not as cold as feared....winds had died down. Barely a breeze and the little snow I got is melting fast. . My kinda storm, if I must have any. They're hinting at more white Thu or Fri -- not as fierce with accompaniments. My mirror talk -- Winter is here, face it!

Animals are out walking in fields today. Everyone hid in barns with the winds yesterday. Even the chickens!! It was fierce.

I hope EVERYONE is having a sunshine day!
