Shitty, cold, ice storm on the way. The countdown to the sunny Southland has begun! This time next month I'll be fishing for oil/chemical coated grouper.
You might want to listen to Rense tonight - he's doing a special on all of heath adverse health effects arising from the Oilpocalypse and the use of the highly toxic Corexit. It will run from 7-10 PST, 9-1 CST, and 10-2 EST. It repeats tomorrow morning at 11-1 EST.
"“Believe nothing merely because you have been told it. Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for the teacher. But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings - that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide.” ~ Gautama Siddhartha — The Buddha
Oh, no, Jethro, you'll love it. It's great. Wave two is just starting here in FTW. They backed off the blizzard warning to 5pm today through 7pm Wedneday. Guess they didn't want the serfs leaving work early. I'm still not real clear why they had to wake me up with their weather radio alarm before 5am to let me know there was a blizzard warning scheduled for 1pm. Probably, just because they can. It must be a government thing.
Is Rense on the Intertubes? I'll listen, but eff it, I have a death wish. Better to die filled with toxic grouper and ale, then shackled to some Jew's desk at the NSA.
Brighton, Ontario -10C Snowing and I'm watching the snow blowing off our roof which will make nice drifts in the driveway. Expecting a blizzard tonight with 2 feet of fresh snow. Lucky we have a snow blower and the town clears the roads promptly.

Springfield, MO is about 20 degrees with high winds and has been snowing non-stop since early this morning. If I had to guess I'd say we have about 8 inches of snow.

It's because they love you. Really. They do.

They can have my Corexit when they wring it from my cold, dead liver!
We've had quite an interesting day here in Indianapolis. A freezing rain/sleet mixture overnight left us with a magnificent coating of ice on all outdoor surfaces, be they roads, cars, power lines, feral cats...you name it. It's not particularly cold by local standards, but it was not life affirming to spend twenty minutes this morning trying to open my car door by simultaneously pulling on the handle while trying to break the door free by whacking it with my knee. Once inside, the engine started easily enough (Praise Ford, lol) but there was stil the matter of outward visibility, which meant removing all that ice from the windows. No amount of scraping was going to accomplish this task, this called for a firmer touch. Big tonka-truck yellow combo scraper-brush in hand I set about re-creating the role of Thor in one of those goofy-ass Wagner operas, wielding my hammer against the death-grip of the ice. Ponk! I could hear it echoing off my neighbors houses. Ponk! Am I hitting it too hard, could I actually break the glass? Ponk! Damn, this seems futile. Ponk! Okay, there's a little crack. Ponk! The defroster ought to start melting some of this at some point... And so it went, but I eventually made my way into work.... Coming home, the roads were terrible, I can't understand how an inch or so of freezing rain turned into six inches of slush on the roads. Even more baffling is why certain people feel the need to use the lane which hasn't been cleared to drive right next to me rather than going single file. Not pass me, mind you, if they got a big 4 x 4 and balls to match, I say let them, but these idiots just seem to want to come alongside me and just stay there. So that's how the weather is here love, any more questions?

70's yesterday in Houston. 42 & falling this afternoon. We're looking at low 20s tonight and for the next several nights according to the National Weather Service. We'll be covering up all the sensitive plants here this evening. I hope all our plants make it! Coming up is the longest stretch of freeze that I can remember. Very unusual for February.
alert. alert. don't answer this post. it is nothing more than a ruse to find out where ya'll really live. don't fall for it!! :~

In the mid-70s in Tampa Flawda today. Nice breeze, partly sunny. Saw a national map on the weather report. Florida was the only warm place in the country.
Tough women come from New York, sweet women from Texas, prissy women from Southern California, but we NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WOMEN have fire & ice in our blood. We can ride 4-wheelers, be a princess, throw a left hook, pack heat, hunt with the men, bake a cake, love with passion, and if we have an opinion, you know you're going to hear it!! Houston weather this week - UNFREAKINGBELIEVABLE. Tonight Wednesday Wednesday Night Thursday Thursday Night Friday Likely Chance for Measurable Precipitation 60% (Back to norbal.) Friday Night Saturday Saturday Night My recommendation is to throw 5 gallons of boiling hot water on the windshield all it once. That'll do a number on it, and you won't need air conditioning in the summer. May I recommend a good brand of goggles? Although you might not need goggles if it is shatterproof glass, and all the pretty lines running through it will turn it into an artwork par excellance.

It's terrible here. The roads are clogged with tourist and it takes twice as long to get to the liquor store.

-4 in Colorado springs. Not much wind.
Winter's the only time Florida is really habitable. It's cold and snowy outside, but I am warm and cozy inside, enjoying some yummy pecan halves, that a very special friend sent me. ;)

It is currently a balmy 34 here - enroute to mid-20's tonight.

Sounds positively Palmy. Of course being in the north you don't have many, if any, Palms, but its the thought that counts. At 10:42 it is either 31 or 34 depending upon which weather station I take the reading from. I know it is getting cool because I had to turn the heat up.

Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break into pieces.

I'm thinkin' an 18" vent-free gas log set in the back seat of your car will take care of your icing problems. Three or four 20 pound propane cylinders in the trunk will power it and give you better traction. Lowe's is closing out all their fireplace stuff, so we should get you some good prices. Of course, we'll have to replace a lot of your upholstery & headliner with sheet metal, but what the hell, I didn't buy that plasma cutter and pan & box brake for looks. You'll have the cosiest and most romantic car in the greater Indy area. The chicks will love it.

We've officially got a level one clusterf*ck going on here now. Almost all businesses are closed, and they're yakking about Homeland Security on the TeeVee. I think we got about an additional nine inches overnight, with sustained winds of 43 mph gusting to 54. I've got some pretty bad drifts to deal with. TeeVee says Chicago got a lot worse.

Didja turn on all your taps last night and let them drip?? I turned them all on last night inside and outside a mite. I woulda gone skating in the front yard this morning, but I sold my ice skates at a yard sale.
