I cleaned the yard last week. All the leaves and branches. One good thing this snow is good for, I put 330 lbs of life on my lawn. It should help put it in the soil.

Poor mans fertilizer. :)

It was about 5” of wet heavy snow. We’re supposed to get more tonight. Haha. So I got the snowblower out. All done. ;) I hate snow.
:)
Caper
That's the kind we usually get here. Wet heavy stuff last about 2 to 4 days than gone. This year it was gone before the next day.
Suppose to be warmer today than yesterday.

We’re going to get a bit more tonight then going up to almost 50 degrees for the weekend. Fingers crossed. :D

Looks like 50 mph winds for @Montecresto Thursday night. Fingers crossed for no rain. :)
Caper
Thanks Cap. I just need the rain to stay away till noon Wednesday, my garage will be in. The winds are concerning though. I’ll post a picture later of the carnage from the 80 mph winds two weeks ago. At least a couple hundred ponderosa pines blown over, looks like match sticks..... :eek:

Just saw it on NBC this morning. Some storm coming from the west coast. Haha, fake news. We’ll see I guess. :D
Caper
Not fake news, just the nature of the various reporting agencies and what meteorologists their using....

Load of crap far as I’m concerned. Apparently Mother Nature had a high snow quota to hit for this year. Last minute make session is calling for 14+ all the way to 2’ possible.

Rivers and lakes are already flooded.

I saw that. Sorry but it made me kinda happy we’re not the only ones. :)
Yes this sucks. And you can keep that snow out there. Please. :D
I think when that gets here, it’s going to be rain. 10 degrees. Maybe it will take the crap that came last night. Fingers crossed .
Good luck on your storm. It’s just not right when it seems like everyone else has beautiful weather. :D

We will be fine. Hopefully can have some fun with my p1000-5 !

Seriously, it could be tough on the ranchers. The mud is already knee deep. Toss in 2’ of snow and now you got a situation in which it doesn’t take much to loose cattle and their babies.

We are taking precautions to bring as many cows and calves into shelter as much as possible and stocking those areas with hay as much as possible.
