Well...We got anudder storm headin' in ...2 storms actually.

We could get anywhere from 10 to 24" in the next 3 days.

Yeeehhaaaa windy too!! I love it when we have blizzard conditions

Ok...I'm tired of it now. You just get one cleaned up and then it gets to -10° for a few days

And then it warms up and snows some more.

There's gotta be some place I can go where it's not like this!

Beenthere should get good use out of his wing the next couple of days

Yeah I got up and read that forecast and promptly went back to bed.

Every year I think about going south for the winter to avoid this weather. Wadda you think Steve, bet Tom would bunk us up for a couple of months.

Good idea Norm

I'm sure DanG has some room too...Eh Dan?

Mooseherder is a little farther south in West Palm

Yeah, over here, the amount of snowfall predicted seems to decrease with each day closer to the expected arrival of the storm...

tyb525,I hope "over here" will be the same.

There is something coming in on Wed. Looks like we might got some snow this time.

Most we got was 8 inches in one storm,most was below 6.

We’re expected to get hit with it too. They say 12-18” on Tuesday and Wednesday with high winds and lows as low as -11. Mary done went to Wal-Mart yesterday and stocked up with “stuff”. I got another box of firewood cut but the yard was too soft yesterday to bring it to the porch with the Terex. (We’re rednecks you know.) We probably have a cord on the porch now but it’s better to have too much than not enough.

Mary blasted off for West Plains already this morning trying to beat the freezing rain and ice coming in. I’ll get the bucket on the Terex with the glass cab and heater so I can be ready to do battle again.

Girls are off to school. I'll bet they'll be home after they eat lunch. They've already missed 4-5 days to snow.

Local weather report on the radio this morning said we could get “historic amounts of snow”.

1-3" forecast for us

I love it when the storms track to our south

Stay safe guys

Don't get to cocky Corley, she might shift

It started out that we were not supposed to get much, now we are in the 8 to 12 inch band. I hope this is one of those times when the weathermen are making much adieu about nothing.

isawlogs · « **Reply #8 on:** January 31, 2011, 08:41:53 am »

Its suppose to hit us here also , starting on tuesday and going in to wenesday and getting over a foot. At this point it could jump right over me and get to thecfarm

I do too. We are in the 13"-20" band in a 48 hour time frame.

Time to cut a load of firewood today and get the tractor ready for a day of plowing.

Burlkraft you are suppose to keep this junk on your side of the lake.

Burlkraft · « **Reply #10 on:** January 31, 2011, 08:48:06 am »

I do what I can $:-\$

Raider Bill · « **Reply #11 on:** January 31, 2011, 08:57:03 am »

Oh no not another big snow storm!!!!

I guess I better get ready to hunker down at the tiki bar for a hard blow... oh and warn the tourists about the danger of too much sun

Weather guesser says it's going to get in the low 70's. but maybe it will rain Wednesday or Thursday to break up the monotony.

We all have our crosses to bear.

Bibbyman · « **Reply #12 on:** January 31, 2011, 09:17:50 am »

Freezing rain just came out of nowhere and is falling now. I talked to Mary and she’s about to cross I44 at Rolla, MO. about half way point to West Plains. She ran through some light rain and junk.

She said near home she spotted a convoy of 15 electric utility trucks heading north. I would think they’d just get snow north of us. I’d thing the bigger problem would be down in southern Missouri and Arkansas with ice. Maybe they’re getting out while the getting out’s good.

Burlcraft Youjust south west of me and the guys to the north have been taking most of the snow for me this year. Thanks

pigman · « **Reply #14 on:** January 31, 2011, 09:23:58 am »

The predicted snow line is supposed to be 10 miles north of us and the predictors are never wrong.

pineywoods · « **Reply #15 on:** January 31, 2011, 09:35:57 am »

Hey, it could be worse. Snow is a pain, but it eventually goes away and most everythings back to normal. Me and TR could send you some of them big black clouds that go round and round real fast and demolish everything in their path. Looks like we might be getting a few.

sandhills · « **Reply #16 on:** January 31, 2011, 09:51:34 am »

Well then I must be one of the lucky ones, we are in a blizzard warning till wed. morning and when we finally get rid of all this in the spring the big black roundy round clouds show up

Bibbyman · « **Reply #17 on:** January 31, 2011, 10:35:59 am »

Yep, I was right. The girls got on the school bus at 7:00. At 9:00 they anounced that they would be letting out school at 12:15. $:-\$

Mooseherder · « **Reply #18 on:** January 31, 2011, 12:56:06 pm »

Come on down for a ride. The doors wide open.
You ain't doin' nothing anyways.

Bibbyman · « **Reply #19 on:** January 31, 2011, 01:35:36 pm »

What not to watch on a day like today..

Somebody demo a sawmill to this guy!
