Well at least you don't have gators,snakes and bugs. I was clearing vines today and thought I saw a snake, but it was just small tree limb.

Well, we certainly don't have bugs at this time of year, but wait until May....

17 degrees, cleared about an inch of new fluffy snow. Ground was Pavement white again already once I finished.
Warming to 27 deg. and weather alerts about freezing drizzle. I'll try clearing anything new before that so I don't end up with thick ice when the drizzle soaks into the fluff.

We let more faucets drip last night; when I got up it was 21 degrees, no pipes hurt, so I'm very happy about that. Too cold to be fixing pipes. "Getty"

Cleared off another inch. More than we were "supposed to" get but still fluffy. And still drifting down so I'll go out at least one more time.
Electric leaf blower makes short work of that. Otherwise I'd need to let it pile up to be worthwhile to shovel or get the snowblower going. Much less of a production when I can "air sweep" light stuff quickly, even if I have to do it several times. I can stand the prod to get up and outside for a bit anyway.

I got outside yesterday and was able to bend down to cut pretty good bit of vines for first time in months.

We are finally above freezing! The sun was out for a few hours this morning, which was nice to see. It is pretty windy today though. The temps are supposed to reach the low 40's. Hopefully, we will get rid of some of this snow now. I am getting tired of looking at it.

We're close enough to freezing now for some good and bad. So far mostly good. We got 3 inches of new snow overnight, with maybe another half inch coming this evening.
17 degrees here. No additional snow for quite a while, other than perhaps a quarter inch night before last.

This morning was extremely foggy outside and it is finally beginning to burn off. It's supposed to be in the high 70's this afternoon.

10 F. and snowing. We are under a winter weather advisory, but we have to drive to Anchorage airport early tomorrow morning (like 4 AM) to catch our flight to Ann Diego. A neighbor girl will watch our chickens and collect eggs. She may ride her horse down if the snow gets deep.
Gonna get down to 8°F tonight. Then for the forecast future (10 days out) forecast lows are in the 20s and 30s. It's been an unseasonably frigid winter here.
