Pastor Dave's Highlights

After the days and weeks of " sub-human" temps, I could personally go turn that "dirt rat" into coyote entree....
Started at 40 at midnight after 51 and cloudy then lt rain yesterday eve. It snowed/flurried then some sun and just kept dropping. Down to 19 at 9 p.m.
I need a noose for that rat.....
20's and 40's is normal; is that too much to ask? We are supposed to get some "wintery" mix late Sat night & Sunday, then clear Monday then some "interesting" weather for Tues..... a little moisture for sure and if we don't get too much at a time it's good since the ground is still frozen a few inches down....

 

[Pastor Dave]

That sounds like our forecast too.

How do we get six MORE weeks of winter when we haven't even had one to begin with here in Nevada?

We just had a week of beautiful sunny days, cool, but not cold. We worked outside all we could. Now it is going to the 40's, windy and rainy. I have gardening fever, I want to PLANT something! So I got 4 bundles of onion sets, 2 yellow, 1 red and 1 white. I got the yellow ones planted.

 

[Hens and Roos]

we are to get snow here later this afternoon into Sunday early morning. No gardening here yet!

I'm hoping to get some seeds in flats started this week. I ordered a large heating mat that should be here next week to get some better starts this year than last.

Just ask a whiskery rodent in PA, I guess.

You can have all the rest of ours and I suspect most of what the much farther southern states have been having....

Can't get much planting fever when it was down to 15 last night. Supposed to get some rain/snow/wintery mix changing to a nice cold rain tomorrow afternoon.

Went down to ~ freezing here last night. Supposed to be mid 50s today but it's overcast & chilly. Temp here online says 38°f but it felt a bit warmer than that when I was out doing animal chores. 30% chance of scattered showers @~44°f tonight then cloudy and 66°f tomorrow. I ran the wood stove last night and have it going on low right now. Heat's turned off. Really hoping for some smaller electric bills. On a bright note, I had my 4 deer (does) down in the back field again this morning cleaning up the last of the deer corn I put out for them. I put out a mineral rock for them as well and it's slowly disappearing though I've never seen any of them licking on it. I really put it out for bucks to aid in antler growth.
