We may have weather

Just a little snow started about forty five minutes ago. They are talking about a lot more.
I am all ready for work and may head out, so I have the leisure to take my time.
These are the tiny flakes, not the big, beautiful, fluffy ones.
Our high temperatures will be around 30 F for the next week according to the forecast.
Of course it could turn into nothing. You never know with the weather.
Probably many more people are having unpredictable weather as well.
I packed my last night's leftovers for my lunch today. At least I will be well fed.

We have had rain the last few days. Smart of you to start out early in the snow.

@GardenGerty ........I was always afraid of the possibility of black ice under new-fallen snow.

They pretreated the roads and that is so helpful. It did not help my vision driving in the dark, but it did make the surfaces better for drivers.

@GardenGerty Our country roads don't get that. They do pre treat many of the highways

It would seem like with all of this you would get some of it. If not this week, maybe next.

@GardenGerty We're getting six inches tomorrow. I can't wait. It's supposed to be an all-day storm.

We may miss that big storm. It's supposed to turn into a nor'easter. Have a good weekend.

That is true. And kids do not run a temperature, they run a fever.1 person likes this

Stay safe. When that system gets here we will have predominantly rain and wind. I guess my new snowblower will be staying in the box for now.

You always have weather! It's just wether it's going to be sunny, windy, cloudy, rainy, snowy or whatever!
I'm sorry you have snow. I don't like snow, because I don't like slipping and falling on it.
Our weather today is dull and cloudy, but I don't think it's raining (yet) and the sun is trying to break through.
I hope you have a lovely day.

I do not mind it if I am not driving in it. Yes, I should have said something like "stormy" weather or "snowy" weather. Next week we may have "blizzard like" weather.

@GardenGerty I don't mind snow as long as I don't have to go out in it at all!.
I hope the weather is fine now where you are.

Be careful & put a blankit or small throw in the car incase
you get stuck & need to stay warm till you get help, cause
like you said you never know what the weather will do.

I have pillow and two blankets. One precaution that you are supposed to take is put a candle and matches in a metal can. You can heat the whole car with that. I keep jugs of water in the car, too.

@GardenGerty what's going to keep the fire going?
I would take some toilet paper to soak with alcahol
that will make a slow low flame to keep your warm.
I did that once on my front porch a few yrs ago & it
did the job till the alcahol burn out 4 hrs later so that's
why I said to put that in your car for heat, look it up.
