Dec22-26 not getting to 30 DAYTIME -- and 11-15 nights. o_O o_O :eek:. Oh, no!!!! NO!!!
Fairly similar to what Accuweather says we will get. Guess that rollercoaster starts with @Alaska, swings down to slap Bay then curves over to hit our VA friends then up here so we won't feel left out.

Fat flakes coming down now, it was just "spritzing" snow bits when I went for a blood draw, gift buying at the liquor store and the weekly round loaf of sourdough bread. Left around 10:30, got home about 11:45.

On the fuel. I was paying $5.50 the other week in the middle of a 1900-mile trip.
I sure hope that was diesel. It is still ridiculously higher than gas here.

1. How does weather from Siberia make it over to central US? Have they looked at a globe??? :ep Siberia is on the OTHER side I say! OTHER side!

2. I thought I lived a jillion miles north of you folks. Here we are all getting the same weather. 10s to 20s F. I am even supposed to get gobs more more snow on Christmas, just like @Baymule Just how big is this snow cloud?

For certain!! That's a "REALLY!?!?!?" Look. 🤣

Early wake up and couldn't go back to sleep day! 😟😵‍💫. 4:30 I gave up, got up. I've had breakfast, coffee and more coffee. News wasn't on...watched an OLD western. Now seeing weather going to low 50 today...then cold front arrives by Sun morning, with 29 at wake up 😞. It gets worse...now they're saying the cold we knew was coming "might" meet moisture while here Thur :th snow flurries??? Booo! Depends on those front movement speeds.

Today will be busy...just for checking & prepping! Cold is not my friend! :old glad I'm home most every day for a couple wks. 👍

I fell asleep in my recliner and woke up at 11:00. Went to bed. I think it was almost 3AM last time I looked at the clock, slept until 7. Just finished first cup of coffee, feel blah. Sheep and Anatolians are looking around, expecting my appearance. I’ll feel guilty if I get another cup of coffee, so guess I’ll get dressed and go feed.

Decided to buy a floating heater unit for the 150gal tank. It'll at least keep an opening for drinking, or dipping to refill the heated tubs. Surprise, on sale! 😁. Found out as I was at register. 👍. All installed and one less thing to worry over. Only at 28 a few hrs so, others not plugged tonight....that'll wait a couple days. Checked all above ground lines in barn so I knew heat tapes& pipes are still insulation covered. Resting well now. 😁

I LOVE my floating trough heater!!
I don't know how accurate they are, but if you add a Thermocube at the outlet it's supposed to save a little electricity by only letting it turn on between a certain temp range.
On at 33° off at 40° or something like that
