We got another visually appealing snow last night. Woke up to about a 1/2” ground and threes covered. Sidewalks, driveway and roads in good shape.

I don't mind a couple of really cold days to kill the bugs but this is enough.

Cold doesn't really bother me either. Except I enjoy doing my slow man jog outside and I can't do it when it's cold. I just can't. But that's the same whether it's 40 degrees or 14.

That is good to know. I have been keeping a few potatoes in my freezer and was hoping the light was not keeping them awake.

Got another one of those little 1/2” snow showers last night. Just enough to make everything look nice, roads and sidewalks are clear.

Ice storm on the way :/ I’m hoping Louisville is far enough north to just get snow but they’re talking about 3/4” of ice down in south central Kentucky.

Re: Last Post Wins

True story, 30-40 years ago Southern KY experienced a heck of an ice storm and we were living out in the sticks, that is out in the country for you city folks, and electricity had gone out around 10:00 pm. I built a fire in the fireplace to replace the heat lost from the electric wall heaters and went to bed.
About 4:00 am I woke to an odd noise, whap, whap, whap, then about 10 mins of silence then the whapping began again. This cycle kept repeating itself and the noise kept getting louder. About 5:30 am the noise was right outside my window so I got up to see what was up. The light of a flashlight was shining in my back yard and the guy with the light was carrying a ball bat.
I watched him until he walked up to a utility pole in the field next to our house and he set the light down, took a batters stance and smacked that pole 3 times with the bat then reached down and got the flash light and walked off toward the next pole.seeya

Might have been a Bigfoot; sounds like a tree-knocking exercise to me...

Re: Last Post Wins
Yup. It vibrated the lines enough that a large portion of the ice fell during the pole knocking exercise. Apparently if there were any tree limbs in contact with the power lines the vibrations caused enough ice fell off them to keep them from downing power lines. The power did not come back on immediately, but it did return quicker than anticipated due to not having to replace as much line as it would have otherwise.

Re: Last Post Wins
I may try it tonight. As Darrell suggested I may do permanent damage to my hands from enough vibration to actually move ice off the lines.

It’s a slushy mess on the north side of the creek. Temps drop tonight it could get interesting in the morning.

Re: Last Post Wins
I have tried it, and it is not as bad as one might think. Take a good grip on a 34 or 36 ounce bat handle, swing for a bloop single over 2nd base, not a home run to the upper deck. Try to hit the pole with the sweet spot of the bat not up close to your hands, and wear insulated gloves with leather outers.
If you are attacking a standard size utility line pole it may surprise you the amount of vibration it produces to the power lines.seeya

...Ohio River Valley getting ready for a pretty good snow event. Starting tonight through Tuesday morning, calling for 8”-10”, or 6”-8” depending on who you’re listening to.
Coming up from Texas and heading ENE. Looks like our friends in the south as far south as Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana might be seeing some ice.
...better get your bread and milk.
