Have a great day stay safe

Yes February is going to be mean. I woke up to -29 this morning and a high -19 and I believe it will stick around for another week.

I brought some paintable emblems in the house because the garage is so dam cold it takes forever to heat up. So I painted them in the basement. Painted the Red and Blue, as there was very little of the original paint left.. Hopefully the wife can't smell the paint.

Just tell her that you noticed a small scratch on a wall and you touched it up. When she ask's where you touched up the wall, just tell her that you did such a good job that you dare her to find the spot.

We had a big barn fire in Hamilton this morning complete loss. Unfortunately the barn was full of Modern and Classic muscle cars. I'm now Trying to find out if this was public storage or a personal collection. Doesn't really matter because it's a huge loss regardless.

That's one of the reasons that I spend the extra money to rent a commercial storage locker with a sprinkler system for the Fish

Good morning -4 wind chill around -10. Had a skiff of snow but damn is it cold that wind goes right through you. Another new warning for tomorrow predicting 15-25 cm of snow i have to look that up I dont do that cm garbage but it sounds like enough to convince me to stay home.

Gee Reg if you keep that up you will reach our total in no time and probably a record for you.

Good morning to another day, was a cooold -15 this morning and after a while the sun came out again. Gee this year I have a little more than 2 feet of snow on my patio but most winters I am used to seeing 5-8 feet of the white stuff there. I will have more work to do in my garage when it warms a bit. One thing at a time and it will be ready before cruising season for sure.
Have a great day and stay safe.

Good morning. We are getting the cold and the snow here today. Temps are at -14 feels like -22. But I keep lying to myself by thinking spring will be here early this year.

by jgl360 Fri Feb 12, 2021 12:25 pm

We are getting a warmish winter this year compared to our norm but with less sun, less snow and less cold.
I was told that spring was going to show up at some point.

JG, we were doing good up until this week. For the most part we were well above the temperatures then we should have been and we only had one snowfall of 10-15 cms.

Good morning, I hope things are white cause I believe that is your favorite colour...this time of year. You might have to get yourself a snow shovel.
Here it is cold, cloudy and valentines day So have a happy one with hugs for the wife. I love you

by Ragtacker Sun Feb 14, 2021 7:49 am

Good morning -0 and snowing yet again and supposed to snow most of the daylight hours then turn to rain won`t that be a mess lol. Not much planned for today shovel the driveway that should take an hour or 2 then probably watch some racing, golf, and hockey.
Have a great day stay safe

by jgl360 Mon Feb 15, 2021 7:21 am

Good morning, -6 up from -11 or so. The sun is awake again, nice to see that bright disc up there. The result from the Daytona 500 was different, it went to no. 34 Michael MacDowell, not an expected winner but a last lap crash sort of changed things.
Be good, stay safe and have fun.

by Ragtacker Mon Feb 15, 2021 7:23 am

Good morning 2 and light rain. It snowed right up until 5 or 6 last night then turned to rain and thats it for the snow for now and the rest of winter I suspect. Ya JG he had alot to do with that crash I suspect he will pay for that down the road.
Have a great day stay safe

by jgl360 Tue Feb 16, 2021 5:47 am

Good morning, snow this morning maybe changing to rain later, which would make a mess. -5 outside.

You and I are supposed to be sharing the same snow belt this year according to the weather forecasters BUT I happen to be in the southeastern corner of NB and all we are getting are leftovers...which I don't mind. Yesterday got 5-10 CM followed by freezing rain which did not accumulate to much.

by **smoken340** Wed Feb 17, 2021 1:47 pm

Good day, we had a sunny day today and got up to -3, but the sun made it feel much warmer. However we are supposed to be getting another snow storm starting tomorrow right through Friday. Have a good day and stay safe.
