    Its a very cold morning out there. The rain turning to ice and the wind making drifts makes for bad weather. over 100 schools are closed today. 24 degr. F and their still calling for more snow over nite again. If you're having better weather-enjoy your day.

    Good Morning from Wisconsin's North Woods. The snow just keeps falling. Not nearly as hard as 2 nights ago, but since the heavy snows stopped, there has been a couple more inches fall in flurries. It's a winter wonderland. 15° F (-9° C) low last night, still hasn't gone above freezing and likely not again today. Looking up through the falling snow, I can see patches of blue, It sure would be nice if the sun made an appearance to day. Have a good one.

    Good morning all.
    Maybe I shouldn't tell you all this but our temperature reached 81 yesterday, tied for warmest Dec 2nd on record. That really doesn't make me happy.
    And it appears that this will be a very mild, warmer and dryer than normal winter for us. My plants may never get to take a winter's nap this year.
    As long as the mornings start out in the 40-50 degree range, giving me comfy weather for gardening I guess I can deal with the warm afternoons. I won't like them but I can deal with them.

    Good Morning. It is 29 and sunny but niot much wind and is 1 in the afternoon. We had to go pick up heart worm pills for our dog and go by the bank. I am going to put a roast in the oven with potatoes and carrots for our supper tonight. That means I'll eat to much. Have a good day. Wannabe

    Good morning my dears, I feel all fuzzy and mellow this morning. Must be all the decorations I'm surrounded by...

    We've got +4 deg C - 39 deg F and rain after a few days of frost. Nice!

    I'm off to get my back treated, need to cut some green for the door wreath afterwards, and I've got the last Potter-book, so I might not see much of you for the next couple of days.

    Enjoy your day!

    Good Tuesday morning all. Currently -8°C and still windy. At the moment the sun is trying to peek out, but there are still snow squalls expected later today. I was surprised that the school buses were running. This weather seems more like what we get in February!
    Droopy-Hope you enjoy the last Potter book as much as I did :)
    Have a great day all.

    Hi everyone

    Sunshiny yet again - I am having a lazy day nursing my back, I hurt it lifting a rock that was a bit too heavy. :'( .

    I should get better soon since I have seen the physiotherapist and had some treatment.

    Have a lovely Tuesday.

    Good Morning from Wisconsin's north woods, where the sub-continental divide passes with in a couple miles of here. The waters in the rivers and streams flow north to Lake Superior on the north side, and they flow south to the mighty Mississippi or Lake Michigan on the south side. It is now day 6 that we have been continually under freezing, 12 F (-11 C) at this time, with a high predicted in the mid 20's F. Gray skies, and some snow flakes in the air, nothing much expected though, maybe 2 to 3 inches more. We have February going here, in December. Does that mean that spring is just around the corner ??, keep dreaming Tom, just have to wait it out I guess.
    Tom

    Good morning all. Sunny with a very few clouds scattered about, started in the upper 30's going to almost 70 this afternoon.

    Penny, I loved your shed in the first picture you posted of it, but I really love it now in the snow.
