HOW ABOUT THIS WEATHER??...

[warthog]

...It is going to be 50 tomorrow here in Michigan;and Denver and Kansas are digging out from 3 feet of snow;10-15 foot drifts...In the mid to high 40's for the rest of this week here...strange weather;indeed...I CAN NOT remember when we had no snow for Christmas and New Years....

This morning one of our Christian sisters flipped her Jeep. Told me to be careful if I went out today. All we had was frost! Must have found some 'black ice'.

I remember in the 80's - around 86 I think - went outside Christmas morning...it was drizzling and the night crawlers were on the top of the ground.

I don't recall having no snow after the new year though. This really hurts a lot of people. Snow removal people - like our Mike from MI - areas like this where they hold ice fishing contests (Tip Up Town) losing revenues so businesses hurt too. Our economy is fragile is already hurting. Snow mobiles not getting sold - or in need of fixing. Cars not breaking down from the extreme cold. Yep lots of revenue lost and then with DNR raising fishing and hunting licenses that should really help our economy (said with sarcasm). DNR controls where detector users can can go camping and enjoy their hobby or where they will have their equipment confiscated.

Ok getting off the soap box. Just hope we have enough water so wells don't go dry - snow or rain - we need the stuff.

It's been in the 50's for something like 2 weeks or more. No snow here in December for the first time since the 1800's. This Saturday, it's supposed to hit 60. I'll be at the beach for sure!

I don't know what's goin' on but I'm not complaining Something tells me we're going to get buried in snow real soon.
