Coffee anyone ?

[canesisters]

So crazy.... 50° outside at 9pm... but gotta leave the faucets dripping when I go to work in the morning because it'll be well below freezing when I get home.
Peepers are singing at the creek tonight.... ground will be frozen solid in 24hrs

Coffee is ready. Gonna need it! It’s 13F outside. The front storm door collects condensation and it’s frozen. I’ll suit up for the artic and go outside to take care of the animals. I have water in the house I can boil if breaking ice isn’t enough.
Son came in last night.
3 girls get to learn the finer points of being frozen with no water today. Flush toilet with a coffee can of water directly poured in and wash hands in a bowl with water poured from a pitcher. And no bath, no shower.

It's a good lesson for them!

My artic freeze arrives tonight. it's 47 now--25 mph winds and some light rain here and there. You know how great that will be when it's 20 by 4pm....and 10 in morn, plus wind dropping it to ?? 0 ??

Yeah, I'm looking to be thankful with no snow and warm up Monday. 30s will seem balmy! . This wind is making it worse. We're all just hoping for the best.

Same - was 49 at 5AM
VERY GUSTY winds hit about an hour ago with heavy rain
It's 43 now and will be windy/gusty all day

As I milked in jeans & a tee shirt last night I listened to the peepers calling down by the creek
By the time I get home tonight it will be below freezing

I kept the girls in last night with the understanding that the rain was ending. I wanted them to be dry today when the temps plummeted and the wind got bad... Hoping that the rain will be gone long enough that they will be dry again before it gets toooo cold

They have no clue. They will probably remember this as a hardship. LOL
