Title: How cold was it this morning by you?
Post by: Pheasant Hollow Farm on November 28, 2007, 08:08:23 AM
Temperature consensus

What is or was the temps at your house this morning?

The temps bottomed out here on the Wood/Wirt county, WV morning at 7am.

We had 19* calm winds and ice crystal frost.

Yahoo weather and Accuweather are telling me it is only 19*.

How accurate do you feel these Internet weather stations are compared to your outside weather stations or thermometers?

-20c here this morning. Weather man is normally a few degrees warmer due to their station is at a bit higher elevation.

Stuck my arms out the window about a half hour ago, rattled some small antlers for a few minutes. Just got back from watching a small buck Mule Deer that came into the yard  :laugh:

A wee bit cool here.....wonder when the cold snap will get here this year  :angel: :laugh:

I lied. I had the Fire Marshall drop by for a permit to burn some brush piles. His truck says -28c.
Also about the Deer. Turned out at least three bucks showed up ! Maybe a couple Does, as there were five seen at one time. No fear ! I'm burning brush piles and they were wondering around all morning. One time I was headed back to the truck, , saw one between me and the house. So I raised my arms and took 2-4 septs towards him. Then again, again....when he finally realized I was headed towards me, he started doing them same ! We got within 60' of each other ! He finally turned and trotted towards the house.Laughing, I turned and walked back to the turck. Looked back when I got to the truck, and the little fellow is following me  :laugh:
This type of behaviour continued all morning. They would come out of the bush line within 50' of the running diesel truck !
Anyway, a very cool (good) morning !

Reeves,

I have been visiting the site you sent me. I can't believe the size of those deer, they are huge! The largest deer that I got of my property was in 2000 and it weighed 135. The doe I got this year so far was 120. Last years doe was a 115.

What are they eating to get that big in body weight, and what minerals are in the ground for the massive antler structure?

Steve

Weather here @ 6am 49* and 50% chance of rain between 8am and 2pm.
Winds W @ 10-20mph

Post by: Reeves on November 29, 2007, 09:39:17 AM
w 15km wind and -18 on the weather thingy: means about -25c at my place.

Steve, AB and Sask have the biggest Deer. I've read it has to do with the harsh envroment, they need this bigger body to withstand the very cold, windy, long winters.
Works the same for Moose. AK, Yukon etc areas have Moose so massive it makes the ones down south & into the States look like runts.

Not sure about why the antler size is so much bigger. You may have to go back several pages in the hunting section to see all the hawgs taken this year.
I've taken a few nice ones, but none like I've seen this year !

isn't -20*C some where around -4*F??? Anyway that is cold to work in...brrrrrrr...it is always below 10*F here till about 1:00pm and then it drops below 10*F at about 5:00pm again so working out side in bare hands is just hard...but working with staples and wire with gloves on is way to slow and clumsy! Anway enjoy the weather Reeves, you will be stuck with it for a little longer than us...haha :angel: :laugh:

"They" are calling for -31c (about -24f) tonight. It will be colder at my place.

Diesel is plugged in, car too. Hoe will take till noon to heat up enough to work properly !

Hope the power doesn't go out in the Valley Quail "house".....!

Steve, you been keeping up on reading that forum ? A couple funny stories and more hawgs posted !

Reeves,

I have dropped in from time to time. Good stories and the deer sizes a maze me.

I was thinking of joining, but I really don't know what I can offer.

What do you heat your house with? Do you have any other back up heat source?

I heat with Electric as a backup and my Ashley stove as the main heat source(firewood). I also have a 15kw backup generator just incase the electric goes out. With the gen hook up I can have hot water, TV and basically all the other creature comforts, plus the gen also gives me the elect. to the ceiling fans and the Ashley stove blower for the circulating heat.


Did your temps bottom out this morning as they predicted? No snow here just rain on the way and temps going to hover around 54*

Have a nice day Reeves!

Temp at work this morning was -35c (about -21f) Got the hoe started but it wouldn't move ! Sent home, and for some reason they wanted the hoe left running. Not likely going to work in the AM, as they are using poly pipe & the co. policy is to not use it below -20c as it is too dangerous to handle. Heck, in my opinion, it is too dangerious to use below 0c !

Well what a miserable day it was yesterday, the high was 54* at 3pm at the Wood/Wirt county line, WV. The rain started yesterday morning at 7am as a light rain and got heavier as the day progressed. Total rain for yesterday was 1.02" We also had wind gusts up to 15mph.

The temps really started to fall after midnight, and were at 42* at 3am, and so far have bottomed out at 36* @ 5:30 this morning with winds @ 5.8mph and cloudy skies.

Today: There calling for variable clouds and windy. Snow flurries or snow showers will continue through the day. Temps nearly steady in the mid 30s. Winds W at 20 to 30 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 40 mph.

Well I will see what my pond and creek situation looks like this morning when I feed the birds.

The snow flurries have started at 7am this morning with temps @ 33*

Have a nice and productive day if at all possible!

Going down to -22c tonight and 60% chance of snow. I'd say 100% as there is at least a foot on the road by my place & it is really dumping right now. Took me three hours to drive home tonight ! (an hour extra)
Tomorrow 60% again, then 70% for the next day. By the end of this I'll have at least three feet or more in the yard, not counting snow drifts.
I'll be packing my travel bag & be staying closer to the job starting tomorrow ! (company pays for it all anyway)

Reeves,

I'd say that was a little snow. I guess they have a decent road crew to keep the road clear and salted?

As of 1:30am at the Wood/Wirt Countyline in WV, the temps were holding steady at 30* the barometer reading was 29.41 and falling, with cloudy skies and calm winds.

Here it is now 4:41am and the temps are starting to fall. At present it is 29.5* and the barometer is 29.32 and falling with the winds coming from the SW@3.6mph and snow flurries.

Yahoo Weather predicts the following:

Today: Some flurries this morning. Then cloudy skies through the afternoon. High 38F. Winds W at 10 to 20 mph.

Tonight: Cloudy with periods of snow after midnight. Low 27F. Winds light and variable. Chance of snow 80%. Snow accumulating 1 to 3 inches.
 
Tomorrow: Snow likely. Cold. High 33F. SE winds shifting to NNE at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 80%. 2 to 4 inches of snow expected.


What do you have in the forecast for the next couple of days?

Depends on the class of the road. All the class "A" ones get looked after very well. But not many places use salt anymore. They use potash or calcium cloride. Potash is where they get the cc from, it still has some in it and it works at lower temps.
My "side road" will be well packed down before a grader hits it ! He also does my lane way. Doesn'r have to, but he is a good fellow !

Wife shovels some when I'm not here. But let me put it this way. She will never wear out the shovel in her life time  :-D

Temps for the next three day range from highs of -17c to lows of -25c with snow for at least three more days.

Temps for the next three day range from highs of -17c to lows of -25c with snow for at least three more days.

I still call it salt, even though it isn't. Here I think, calcium cloride and sand is used. For some reason, I think the calcium cloride has a higher rusting factor then the use of the old time salt. What do you think?

I don't envy you on the additional snow amounts at all. I am not really looking for the snow that they are predicting for us in the next 48hrs.

When you stated class "A" roads, is that the primary roads? Here in WV the  State does all the roads. The primary roads are first, then when they get to it, then the secondary roads. Now if you live on a secondary road that has a school bus route, they will treat it as a primary road, unless they close the schools down for a snow day. Then you are screwed, especially if it falls on Friday.

When I lived on Long Island, NY the town took care of the primary and secondary roads in its jurisdiction. Out of the towns area, the county did the county roads, and the state did the state roads.

Well, it took me an hour to go what normally takes 15 minutes. Called the foreman and told him to call another person to work today, that lives much closer. It would likely have taken a least 6 hours to go the normal 2 hour drive.
Road shoulders are not plowed & other drivers think they own the center of the road. Was nearly in the ditch 2-3 times trying to avoid a head on !
Not worth it.....

Steve, the class depends on the volume of traffic on the hwy. The only time they'll do the side roads is after all the paved roads are done & in good shape. Seen my road so bad it was 4x4 only & even then it was a major struggle.

Yes, the c-cloride is much harder on any steel.

Yeh, and the State already sprayed the highways with it in the middle of last night here.  I can hear my old beater truck rusting as we speak. I only had to be on the highway for about 2 miles this morning and my windsheild is covered with it from other cars on the road.   :x

It's a conspiracy anyway!     :-o    Autos must be lasting too long,..... so they figured out a way to rust them out, ......so we'd have to buy new ones to keep the economy going!!  I know this to be true, because I read it on the internet.    ^-^

There was nothing, nada, zip, zippo here as far as snow on the Wood/Wirt county line in WV yesterday. Winds here didn't reach any gusts worth while. Mead average winds were SW @ 3-5mph the whole day. with the temps holding at 33*.

Last night @ 11:30pm the skies were nice and clear. This morning at 3am there were some traces of snow on the deck, and the temp was 27.9* with the barometer reading at 2am: 29.12" and dropping.

At 4am this morning the barometer had dropped .06" within a hr. and now the snow is falling lightly, and the temps are 28* and calm winds.

They are still predicting: Yahoo weather 2-4" total, and Accuweather predicting 1-3" , in the 26143 zip code area with the high for today only 33* and winds NE at 5 to 10 mph.

I expected to see more deer come down last night to feed due to the expected snow. That never happened, right then and there I knew the snow wasn't going to come.

That's not so, I said, "my beater truck", which is and old peice of Toyota junk. It's a fix or repair daily kind of truck, contrary to what they try to portray in the media.  I've drove GM's for up to 269,000miles and never had a problem and didn't feel like I was riding a hay wagon the whole time like the Toyotas.

- 20 is where the C and F come the closest, within a degree of two, either is colder then I want now,

the past week we have had right at 6-8F each morning and it has warmed up to around 25 in the day, this on top of 8-12" of snow so winter is here whatever the calendar says.  We've had a couple mornings below 0, but its not til jan we expect that to get serious then some morns around -25F, then it will creep up a bit. By feb back to the single digits in the morn and double digits days. 

For our wild birds the thing is to provide habitat to get them through the cold weather in jan and to survive the rest.

Yes we do :laugh: but not all at once. If all the snow melts with the rain, that like double your pleasure and double your fun. My pens will be nothing but mud. The birds are not smart enough to stay in the barn, and I don't like washing muddy birds. I did that two years ago and had them sitting on a stool in the house in front of the wood stove to dry and me using a hair dryer. j2 The dogs at that time just sat there in amazement.

The fun started when the birds decide to get of the stool and go on the floor, s80 thats when the fun began j41 birds running on hardwood floors and 5 dogs not knowing to  s80 or go blind.

-20 or -40, either is colder then I want/need.

Actually, the killer is the wind, I have seen -5 F quite comfortable when the air was still, add in wind and its a killer, our weather since nov has been with gusting winds and that makes it brutal.  Today thankfully is mild with barely any breeze, the kind of a day i call a gift. 

in 2003 I was dogsledding in the Yukon, a bit north of Whitehorse, we had many days with a high of -10F, but not a lot of wind, it was quite comfortable running dogs, what was bad when the fire burned out in the cabin stove and it got down to -34, in the cabin, makes for a fast dressing and firing up the propane stove for coffee ! I have friends who have run both the Yukon Quest and the Iditarod, and thats survival at its best. I couldnt handle the sleep deprivation I dont think.  8-10 hrs of riding a sled(jogging up hills etc) and I'm ready for a hot meal after the dogs get theirs and then a long sleep.  I think our coldest weather was -54 on the river.  It was an interesting winter but it pointed out that MI is cold enough for me.

Here it is 1:28 am, Overcast with rain and 36* Winds light and variable. So much for the winter weather. It's going to look like spring weather the next few days with the highs/lows reaching 44*/35 tomorrow(today)and going up to 64*/52 by Tuesday. Naturally there will be more rain coming on those days

Well here it is another rained out day as expected. Temps 45* calm winds.

Pens full of mud and so are the birds.

No high flood waters as they predicted. My ponds picked up a good 4 inches since the rains started last week. The creek in front of the property is running 4 feet high and I have debris starting to block the bridge.

More work, just what I need to do in the rain.

Well we had a reprive from rain here yesterday after 10am. The sun came out nice blue skies and the temps jumped from 56* to 65* by 12 noon to 74* with winds SSW @ 8-10mph, only to start getting cloudy by 4pm.

Overnight temps stayed at 64* and now the rains have returned at 5:20 this morning with the barometer heading down.

Short term forecast for my area is not to promising.

Today: Periods of showers, mainly between 9am and noon. Temperature falling to around 46 by 3pm. North wind between 6 and 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.

Tonight: Rain likely, mainly after 3am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 42. Calm wind becoming north around 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New rainfall amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.

Thursday: Periods of rain, mainly before 2pm. High near 50. North wind between 5 and 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.


December has started out to be one wet month so far. Two of my ponds are just about maxed out on water. If we get the additional rain forecasted the ponds will go into the overflow and drain into the creek.

So depressing :sad:

I am usually up anytime from 1am-3am. and crash around 6:30-7pm. I just can't seem to sleep anymore since my son died.

So I will usually check here first, :laugh: and then go to the other forums that I am a member on: gun, weather and hunting c110, then check back here, before I really start my day  j45. By 7am I have down 2 pots of black coffee, and have another pot brewing.

By the way, Happy belated birthday to ya.   :-o  Your profile states that you are 67 years young is this correct? If so I think you are the oldest member.a31  j44

+1 and stuff melting a bit & calling 40% flurries. They would be right !

An old trapper fellow was here checking his spring snares. He saw a Coyote at the dead cow pit to the S.E. of my place & smoked it with a .284. It fell into the pit, and being in his 70s came by to see if I would haul it out for him (steep sides).
Got it out, but it was hit high center & hit the spine. Not a lot left.
Was dumping snow big time the whole time out...now it has quit.

Neat old fella, wants to go out calling Coyotes some time with me  c110

Good he got that coyote, I've been sleeping very light listening for them here. Last week se had a lot of snow here in Vancouver and two nights in a row they were coming close to the house looking for the ducks. My hubby shot a pellet gun the first night at them and then the second he had his 22 back. So far they haven't been back and I'm hoping they dont come back, I've never shot the 22. As for here in Sourthern BC we are finally above freezing and going to get rain or snow today.

Hi Steve
thanks, I tell everyone I am 67 going on 13. I have something to keep me younger, very active in local SAR, I train the scouts who keep the dog teams located. In our heavy forest thats needed. I am waiting on a bluetick pup from MT to join our other hound, these are cold trail hounds, up to five day cold trails. So the miles I put on helps keep me fit, but, I am looking for a good saddle mule to join in the fun.

We are getting wind from the south and southwest now, northern edge of the front coming up from the SW , temp about 28 right now, anything could happen, thick overcast.

Hope the rain lets up on you, too much of a good thing isnt good. You have a couple thousand little umbrellas for the birds ?

As if we need more rain. The ground is at total saturation around my area and I have no place else to put it. Then we have more for Sunday.

Sunday: Periods of rain before noon, then rain and snow likely between noon and 2pm, then snow likely, mainly between 2pm and 4pm. High near 34. Breezy, with a west wind 11 to 14 mph increasing to between 19 and 22 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches possible.

One of these days I'll have to read the manual for my digital camera  s176

Picture @ 08:15(ish) temp is about -10c. Had a high humidity last night I guess, as all the pen wire is fuzzy with frost.
Note the bush in the foreground. It's a Lilac that is over 5-6 years old...maybe more. Note the tracks to it. This will explain why it has yet to get to 4' high  :grin: It's only maybe 20' from the house.

My lilacs get trimmed too. I have put 19 in the front yard since I moved here, all get trimmed, some bigger ones also give shelter for birds, I keep fertilizing them and hoping for best. Our winter has been  'mild' so far, except for winds which blow or gust daily. Few temps so far under 10 above, but next month we'll have some mornings around -25.  We have dodged the storm bullet this past weeks, just a light dusting daily. But will get a couple inches today. No problem, just hunker down.

Last week after a couple inch snowfall I saw deer tracks on the front deck ! I think they were checking out the window bird feeder.

thats right, Pheasant Hollow Farm, I'm in for quite a storm in NY,  will  be a mixture of  snow /rain/sleet . Sleet or freezing rain has to be the worse, they can quickly coat the branches of many plants including bamboo ,which i have planted for my birds, and making the bamboo bending possibly breaking. Sometimes i have to shake the ice off the trees/plants. That sleet does create quite a bit of trouble. But at least the South will get much needed beneficial rain, from all the droughts.........you either have too little rain or too much!!!

Well we are finally getting snow from this storm. 3/8 of an inch since 10:00 am this morning, I figured we would skate by. s80

 s80 Now to add insult to injury, the  s80 power went out just prior to the beginning of the snow and we have wind gusts of over 20mph and with the possibility of over 50mph.

Utility Co. states they are working on the problem, but no idea on restoration time. So here I am running the backup generator.

Temps here have bottomed at 11*. Fire going in the house and the dogs don't want to go out. The clear skies lastnight let what ever radiant heat that was acquired yesterday under all day cloud cover dissipate.

It's going to be a long haul for the temps to reach 45* today no matter how much sun we get.

-10c (or lower) and calling for variably cloudy....high of -8c.

Pulling my snares today, as it is a very small bush area & I do not want to wipe them out.
If I get in the mood, I'll go up the road a few miles and try for permission to snare another bush that looks like there are lots.
Yesterday I had another one...but some bird (Hawk or Owl) took the whole thing ! Nothing left but a gut pile.

If I get in the mood, I'll go up the road a few miles and try for permission to snare another bush that looks like there are lots.
Yesterday I had another one...but some bird (Hawk or Owl) took the whole thing ! Nothing left but a gut pile.

What do your snares look like? So a picture of your set up.

Forgot to mention, had another bunny this moning as well. Still alive, I think it ran into the snare when I walked into the bush to check.
All cleaned up & soaking in salt water now  :grin:

-10c right now. Calling for a high of -7c and 30% chance of snow.

Steve, waiting till after 9AM to call the courier & see if the keys etc. came in. If they did, I'll go into the city to pick it up. A fella I know was looking at it yesterday & he didn't see any BBQs.

Camera is charged up & I'll take it with me when I go check snares. I'm sure I have 2-3 out of the 6 snares. Very busy place compared to the last spot.
As long as Cototes , Deer and the 4 Moose stayed away from them ! Last spot the Deer were following my tracks right to the snares & moving them by stepping on them or smelling them.

Well here it is Jan 2, 2008 and we are getting snow here in Slate, WV. Snow started to fall yesterday late afternoon around 4pm and has continued to snow. Snowfall readings at midnight was 2.5 inches. Current temps are 19* winds W @ 13mph and snowing. 1-2" additional snow expected by morning hours.

State Road Trucks came down the road at 12:30am plowing and salting. I guess there will be school today.

Temps hit here yesterday @ 3:30pm 62* and calm winds cloudy skies. The only snow left on the ground is from the plow. Green grass until you walk on it and then you see the mud to come up to the top.

Talk about balmy, it is 58* right now (3:38am) under cloudy skies and calm winds. It is suppose to get up to 63* and overcast skies with winds developing later this afternoon SSW @ 10-15 mph.

I guess today would be a nice day to take down and collect all the tree stands that were set up for the deer season.

although it isn't as warm as yesterday morning, right now, 35* and sun calms winds. the high for today is 73* and yesterday it hit 74* Chance of rain today is only 30%, which is just fine by me, gives the pens a chance to dryout.

Tonight: Evening light rain followed by a mix of rain and snow overnight. Low 29F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of precip 70%. Snow accumulations less than one inch.

Tomorrow: Variably cloudy with snow showers. Cold. Temps nearly steady in the low to mid 30s. Winds W at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 60%.
Tomorrow night: Mostly cloudy. Low 24F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.

Tuesday: A few snow showers. Highs in the low 30s and lows in the low 20s.

Wednesday: More sun than clouds. Highs in the upper 30s and lows in the mid 20s.

Thursday: Rain and snow showers. Highs in the upper 30s and lows in the mid 20s.

birdlover, are you actually telling me that or saying that you can still operate an open fireplace in the City of Queens? I though for sure that the NYC EPA had shut down all Fireplaces in the City of NY.

I was hassled by a neighbor in Bayshore, NY where I lived back in the 80's. She complained that the Fire Place Smoke was getting into her laundry (she didn't like the smell of smoke in her draws)that she hung outside during the winter. Needless to say she was trying to blow smoke up my arse. She actually had the Suffolk County Board of Health come down and check to see my smoke levels coming out my chimney. I was informed that I was legal and nothing else came about it.

I had questioned my neighbor about this, and I informed here that I was South West of her on the blocked and the winds were coming from the North West. So there was no way my chimney smoke if any went her way.

She was just one of those neighbors, along with many others that had nothing to do but mind other peoples business. I am glad to be out of Long Island, and NYS.

The best thing for you to do is when you get of age, get the He77 out of NY and persue your dreams no matter what they are in another state.

Yep in Queens you can operate a small fireplace, but you can't make too much smoke or a big fire. I can't stand when people complain with the smoke, you can't even make a nice fire anymore. Yeah i know, i don't really like it here that much, I'm not a city person, wish i could move down South to North Carolina, life is better over there.

Try the paint roller, You don't have to stand under it. The roller works good when the snow turns to ice as well.

Well the temps here at 7:30am in Slate WV is 3.2* clear skies and calm winds. This still hasn't been the coldest over night low since the new year, but it sure looks like it will be the coldest for the day time high of only 19* as predicted.

Plenty of sunshine and winds W @ 10-15mph.

It is snowing like crazy here since 8am this morning and we have accumulations of better the 1/2" of wet snow far. Winds are blowing from the west at 4mph with gusts up to 12mph

It is amazing that they only stated 1/2" or less of snow between 8am-11am then changing over to rain. If the snow continues the way it is going, we can see better then 1-2 inches before it turns to rain.

In the mean time the top flight netting is getting heavy, I dread the though of rolling the netting and having to become a snowman after double pneumonia.

Ok, so it only snows here 3-4 times a year and usually only a dusting.  Last night it started snowing at 10:00 PM and has not stopped.  So, when I got home from work this morning, I went with my husband to check the pens and guess what Steve?  All the netting had 6-8 inches of snow on it.  So I look at hubby and say "Grab the paint rollers honey, we gotta get that snow down".  He thought I was crazy, but it worked and with very little snow down the back of our jackets.  lol

So it is 28f here and holding, still snowing and I want it to STOP, this is California for god's sake!  My birds are pissed.

We picked up another 1/4 inch here over night. Temps outside at 3am 3.2* partly cloudy skies, calm winds. Barometer on the rise. High for today 31* mostly sunny and winds WNW again at 10-15mph.

All the snow we got yesterday and overnight was a nice powder so nothing stuck to the netting. j2

I am glad you change the meters into feet. They tried to change us over to the metric system in the early 70's I think. It didn't work out as you can see.

I guess we though we were getting cheated when they tried the imperial gal/ltrs on us with the gasoline at the stations back then.

Us Americans like the oz/lb/gal/in/feet and so one. That is why we like our Independence!! Now if we can just get the politicians to understand that, we would be okay, but they insist on making the Good Ole U.S. of A. into a third world nation.

The pictures of the snow sure do look sweet. I just wish that when it snows here, that it stays a while and not rain later that afternoon or evening, or have the temps go to 40 and 50 degrees.

I love the snow, the peacefullness that it brings along with the complete solitude within. The relaxation one gets sitting in front of an open fire watching the snow come down and all the animals scurrying for there last meal of the evening.

If you have ever have the chance to have an open fire on your property while it is snowing during the evening take time out to enjoy it. It doesn't matter what age you are. The experience that you will encounter will last a life time and beyond. If you can do it by a running creek, all the better. I have done both and I will cherish it always.

That is the best part about moving out of NYS, actually Long Island in a residential community, and moving to West Virginia, is owning a farm and enjoying the good life.

Enjoy it while you can, age has no barrier differences.

Isn't snow nice. We have had a lot of temps in the -10 to -20*F  range for the last couple weeks one day it was about -40*F with windchill and we had one day that was 40*F and melt a lot and then it all froze so this is so much ice to slip and slide on s80

brentsquailfarm,

Did you have any close calls in your area, twister wise? Nothing but more rain and more debris stuck at the bridge culvert pipes. All day Saturday and Sunday, and part of Monday clearing the culvert pipes for last night and today heavy rains. Mud every where. High to day 65* overnights low was 57* sure did feel like spring, but looks like back to winter Sunday with a high of 19* and snow flurries.

Keep Dry!

-4 F, with strong winds and gusts.

Well Jake,

Temps not as drastic here in WV as what you are having. Sunshine all day yesterday with the highs of only 26* but with the wind chill it was between 11-14* depending on the wind.

Overnignt lows hit 6.8* @ 4:28am with clear skies and calm winds.

Todays high again is only 26* with sun and clouds mixed but tonight all bets are off, snow showers then becoming steadier with a low of 19*( which will be, 10-12* in my area], and snow accumulation from 1-3" by morning, then ice to rain tomorrow when the temps get to around the 40's.

Keep warm and dry!

-2F at 7, with wind, now at 10:35 up to 10F, sunny and no wind, the cold over the past few days has put an ice crust over the snow, no more whiteouts. So far feb has been colder then jan, but Lake Michigan hasnt frozen over yet so we porbably wont get the -20sF we have had in other years.

feeling like -5 here, very cold and windy. I noticed 2 eggs that my doves laid, now their never going to hatch s176, we did have a couple warm days so i guess my doves figured it was springtime, but they laid the two eggs and now the cold air is rushing back in. I'm so upset, they laid the eggs, if only if wasn't that cold i could of maybe had my new babies. I'm sure they'll try again, hopefully when its warmer and it stays warm. The eggs are practical frozen in this weather.
Title: Re: How cold was it this morning by you?
Post by: Reeves on February 11, 2008, 01:57:39 PM
Doves are prolific breeders. Take the eggs away and they'll lay more in about a week. But as long as you have them where cold can get at the nest, the young will not make it. Move them in, or wait till spring.
Mine would lay new eggs even before the first set of chicks were out of the nest.
Under ideal conditions, you can get up to 22 (twenty two) young a year out of them.
Title: Re: How cold was it this morning by you?
Post by: birdlover17 on February 11, 2008, 03:10:22 PM
Hi,
Thanks Reeves , I was going to take all the dove nestboxes away so that they wouldn't lay in the cold months, then i would put the nestboxes back in the spring, but i left the nestboxes there, i don't think that taking away the nestboxes will stop them from laying.Doves can pretty much make their own nest. I guess theres nothing to do to stop them from laying when its cold. I don't want them to lay any eggs right now, so I'll leave the eggs in the nest, this way they wont lay anymore this winter. Then once spring hits I'll take the eggs and encourage them to lay. I have a friend of mine that i gave away a couple of my Ringneck Doves  and this pair has over 25 young its pretty amazing, he has all the offspring and the pair all together, you would think the pairs would get mixed up and stop laying. I'll just let nature take its course and hope for the best, if they keep laying this winter i'll have to go along with it and hope for the best.

I can't believe they are calling for Today: A wintry mix this morning will give way to showers, and possibly a thunderstorm, for the afternoon. High 44F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph.

We accumulated another 1 inch of this white stuff they call snow this morning.  Prior to this so called snow, we got 1 inch of slush since the temps were hovering around 32.8*, and the bridge would wind up a skating rink.

So I was out plowing this morning getting the slush and ice off the bridge since now the temps have dropped to 24*.

It's winter time in Canada
And the gentle breezes blow
Seventy miles an hour
At twenty-five below.

Oh, how I love Canada
When the snow's up to your butt
You take a breath of winter
And your nose gets frozen shut.

Yes, the weather here is wonderful
So I guess I'll hang around
I could never leave Canada
'Cause I'm frozen to the ground!

i can understand how that can be called mud, my pens sometimes get mud like that too, but not like yours. But if you added concrete to their pens, wouldn't it get less messy, this is what my pens have.

With the price of concrete at around $80.00 a yard I don't think so, beside, then I can't plant in the spring when I move the birds. I have drainage but the mud this time of year s80.

The yard its self isn't to bad as long as you don't continuously walk on it. That's when the mud seems to come to the surface.

Besides, you have sand in Queens. Our mud here in WV is RED CLAY. Nothing like slip-sliden-away when you hit it. Hard as a rock when it is dry.

Snow on the way for tomorrow 1-2"  s80  I would rather have the freeze instead.

Birdlover I told you before come and get it! got all the snow you want. . even after the torrential rain we had recently there is still  2 to 3 feet of snow in places. I know I had to restring the electric fencing out back yesterday nothing like walking across the crust thinking you have it made then all at once sink up to your s53  it is deep out there! we do not get the mud real bad for about another month or so but when we do look out especially with all the snow still on the ground. I was thinking about holding mud runs through the front yard last year  s020

Well birdlover,

Looks like you got 1/2 your wish with the snow. We picked up 1.5 inches Thursday late afternoon and then it turned to freezing rain to cap of the snow for Friday morning.

The temps today are just like Fridays, hovering around the 32.5* mark with it either doing snow flurries or light annoying drizzle. Still have at least 1/2 inch on the ground.

Toledo, Illinois 7:35 am and its 19 degrees. The heaters are working in the Quail house(trying to keep the waterers from freezing)  although the chuckers are out in the cold. The rabbits are not moving too much this morning. The coyotes are moving this morning saw two on the hill out the front door which is about 150 yards from the house (the hill not the door) , going to carry my camera more often and maybe the rifle.

Don't rely on the weather stations too much because the towns they report for are more than 30 miles either direction you go and it is usually warmer in town than in the boonies.

This morning the skies open up to heavy rains and the high for today so far is 52* calm winds no rain at the present time. We do have a chance of t-storms later in the day towards evening.

Chance of snow for tomorrow. So much for the 70* sunshine tease weather.

Here we go again j47 another rained out day in the Mid-Ohio-Valley area. Rain started at 10:15 am with the temps @ 40* Barometric pressure 29.68" and falling. 53% humidity winds N @ 2.3 mph. Rainfall expected 1/2 inch.

Tonight: A steady rain this evening. Showers continuing overnight. Low 31F. Winds N at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 90%. Rainfall around a half an inch.

The outlook for tomorrow is just as bleak. :x

Tomorrow: Rain and freezing rain in the morning will transition to periods of snow in the afternoon. Cold. Temps nearly steady in the low to mid 30s. Winds NW at 10 to 20 mph. 1 to 2 inches of snow expected.
................. and tomorrow evening, I'm going into Marietta, Ohio to see the Ultimate Fighting Contest.


Tomorrow night: Mostly cloudy. Snow showers around by midnight. Low 16F. Winds W at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of snow 50%.

So it will be either a bust in the weather, or quite sloppy going and coming home.

Wind out of the SW @ 15-20 with the gusts getting to 25-35. blow drying the pens just in time for the rain it seems. Oh well I guess it is better then snow and temps in the 20*s.

Have a nice productive day if possible j2 , I think I will smoke a pork loin today with hickory.

Hey Slider,

What is 78* like? s020  We had that for one day over a week ago, then it snowed. I am still fighting ice in the water buckets. What a mud fest around here. Light rain on Friday, and on and off snow showers for today.

Peeks of sunshine later. High 46F. Winds NNW at 10 to 15 mph.

The weather wasn't like this last year. Still no signs of flowers coming up, and still no pheasant eggs.

brentsquailfarm,

How you making out with all the flood waters in Arkansas? Are you located with in this area that they are talking about?

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Forecasters warned communities in the Arkansas prairie along the White River that they could suffer their worst flooding in more than a quarter-century under clear skies and sunshine.

You may be wondering why we issued a flash flood watch in eastern Arkansas when there is little to no rain in the forecast," John Robinson of the National Weather Service in North Little Rock wrote Sunday in an e-mail to reporters.

Rest of the story at: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080324/ap_on_re_us/severe_weather

Weather here seem good so far,28* sunshine, no rain or snow as predicted for the morning hours. Although they are still predicting 30% precip for some time during the day.

Nice spring weather  s020 s020 s020

It has been a little crazy around here. I live on Lake Norfork and it feeds the White River along with Bull Shoals lake. The lake is at 68% cap. @ 570ft and the Corps say until the flooding in lower ARK stops. They will not release any water. So I have been busy with the boat docks that I watch. Today it should maybe get to 60* and very windy with full bright sunshine. Good day all

(http://sirocco.accuweather.com/nx_mosaic_640x480_public/sir/inmaSIRVA_.gif)

Today: Rain with a thundershower possible this morning then variable clouds during the afternoon with scattered thunderstorms. High 58F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 80%. Rainfall around a half an inch.

It does look like some nasty stuff that will pass by me today the way it is heading. Never fails, just when the pen is just about dry. 

 s020 s53 and it isn't even April Showers month.

No school for the kids again.

Don't know how much snow you're talking, but they'll cancel school for the smallest amount of any precipitation of any kind anymore, even when the air conditioning is broke in the same building that didn't even have air conditioning when I went to the school.  Put on the tire chains for cryin' out loud!!  Oh, forgot....that would require some work and some responsibility, can't be doin' that.  Then the days that they have to "make up" is a complete joke, it's just a technicality to make some educated idiots feel good about their laws to protect us stupid citizens from ourselves.  :-|  Everyone knows that the last month of school is play time, so lets make those play days up and extend the school year to the later part of June!   :wink:  Public schools are a joke, they need to mandate a class for "Common Sense", but then they'd probably have a hard time finding a instructor for it or it would offend someone.  They probably wouldn't have time anyway for all the web surfing, text messaging, and cell phone calls?    :grin:  RANT!

Nothin' but mud and rain, and rain, and more rain here.

No jchiar, not one plant probably an area 5 ft by 5ft around there.
Its not a "tiny" pen as you put it, it has easily 60 square feet if not, more. At least i try planting something, its not about the space as much as the quality, i rather pick quality over space. I may not have a huge property but if i have quality this is better than someone with huge property and poor quality.

Heavy rains and a balmy 50* this morning. Flood watch is in effect until Saturday morning. Over 1 inch of rain is expected.

Just when you start to dry out.. the only thing starting to grow in this weather is the grass.

So , it looks as if your farm in Queens, NY puts a new meaning to a Gentlemens Farm. Please post some pictures of the property from the back property line showing your pen area and crop and garden area.

Pheasant Hollow Farm,
Sure no problem I'll post some pictures of the property, just let me wait about 4 days for the oats to grow in, this way you could see some of it, i also planted Canary seed, which is a good feed for the birds, but the oats and canary seed does take about 3 months to be ready to harvest, so I'm mostly using them for improving the quality of the soil with cover crops, then when i plant my veggies over the grain bed the veggies will grow a lot better with the addition of organic matter from the (oats) mixed into the soil. If i want grain/straw or hay I'll plant it again in mid-May, then just let it grow all spring and summer long to be ready to harvest within approx. 3 months. I mean its not much what i have here but i try and make it work, and it doesn't hurt to try, and so far its looking great.

Hi,
Not much, they just seem extra nice come harvest season... s020 eating all my veggies  s176 , i should lock the garden up. It's like i work hard to cultivate, weed, sow , plant , harvest then they just eat. I personally love it, i would do anything to just have more room.
 That tractor would be nice, huh? I would use the tractor for a minute and be done. I was actually considering going to school for farming, but then i realized you can't really be taught how to farm you have to develop it within yourself, and since it was "new york" highly doubt this field being up for grabs.
Honestly people here dont seem to care about gardening or anything pertaining to farming that much, i'm just glad i'm talented in this field and oneday i'll have myself some property and like you, move out of pollution york , and into the countryside where i belong.     j2

Yesterday was sunny and warm. Sat on a lawn chair in front of my shop....thinking about work/doing something. Thankfully, the "pop" was good and helped me decide to do nothing.
About 3(ish) PM a stiff breeze came in from the N.E. temps droped fast.

This morning, it's snowing.

BL17....you are one funny duck ! Your 25 sq. ft. "field" would do better if you just added about one cubic foot of peat moss. I'd say to compost, but your field is smaller than a compost bin  s020
All that time and trouble, and you'll get less than a hand full of grain.
But then again, we know you are just "kidding" us, to get us to respond.....all in good fun, I guess. I know it makes at least me laugh !  s020

Today, cloudy and chilly, tomorrow sunshine returns gradually getting warmer...
Oat/canary seed crop didn't sprout yet, so Pheasant Hollow Farm, as soon as it does germinate I'll will gladly post pictures of it. It has been on the cool side for a couple of days so the oats and canary seed wont germinate as quick or fast as if it was warm. It does look to be warmer here soon so I'm sure the oats and canary seed will sprout shortly. I'm just having trouble with the birds, there eating up all the grain and seeds i planted, I've tried putting plastic bags all tied to a string to scare them away, I'm going to just lay some plastic sheets over it and remove it when i see growth. They just can't seem to leave it alone, but they got to eat too right. Here are a few pictures of my first new baby doves, they hatched last week and are growing rapidly.

Yeah i know the pics are blurry, it isn't that easy to try to take a picture of the doves, trying to place the camera right in front of them to get the best possible picture, then i had to make sure the dove pair didn't see me trying to take a pic. of their babies. These were the best pictures that i could take, I'll try again one day when they get a little bigger.
"Plants growing in those planters"..... j41

Didn't know that about Gouz Dairy Farm, i don't know if you know but there is another farm around Queens called Queens County Farm Museum, this farm dates back to at least the 1900's if not 1800's. I've been there many times they have every farm animal imaginable plus land for planting.

I bought 4 tubs of Max last week for $4.99 and they went up to $10.99  s49

Reeves,

Do you do a garden? and if so, do you start your seeds indoors..

Title: Re: How cold was it this morning by you?
Post by: Reeves on April 19, 2008, 10:57:53 AM
Two gardens right now. Going to make some changes this, or next, year and have only one. The original owners had planted a row of Choke Cherry trees along the north side, and some kind of Willow on the south side. Not much sun gets in it. I'll be cutting down the Cherry trees. The garden in the picture is one I made. So it will end up being where a future pen will be.
Yes, we start stuff inside. Plant in June. We will plant a few things like potatoes likely on the May long weekend (last week of May-ish).
Short growing season up here !

I hate to cut the trees down, but labcanman informed me the Cherry tree leaves give off cyanide when wilting. It can kill horses etc if they eat enough.
Also, the old garden is a waste of space with the way the trees are. Thought of building a pen at one time, but the seeds of those Cherry trees are also toxic.
I have at least a dozen of them to get rid of. Front yard as well. All the planting I'm doing is in much better lines and mainly Spruce, Pine for property edge/shelter belts. Place needs a lot more green during the winter. Alberta is a drab looking Province in the winter. Main tree seems to be Poplars. Lots of green as you travel more north though.
I had ordered 125 Spruce from a free Gov. source....they "substituted" with 70 Scots Pine. So where I had planned to plant the Spruce will have to wait for another year. Pines will go to another area that I had not wanted to plant till next year. (leave it up to the Gov. to screw up my plans!) Last time I'll likely order from them.
I always keep an eye out for the tree planters. They will often give me some/lots. There are about 1000 in a box. I'd really like to get my hands on a full box or two and be done with planting them for a while !

Nice morning so far here in WV j2 Outside temp at 0730, 45* patchy fog and sun. Winds light and Var. Highs for today, 71* with more clouds then sun and a 30% chance of rain.


CharlieHorse,

Buckeye's around the property here as well. Is it true that only the squirrel can differentiate which half is editable? Or is this just some old Ohio wives tail, and the whole buckeye is poisonous?

What is the sole purpose of this tree and seed pod? (commerical use)

Isn't it just the Black Cherry Tree that produces the cyanide from the wilted leaves, twigs and the nut like pit?

Had to shovel a couple places to get to and open pens. One drift is at least 4' deep, behind the Amherst house.
I have as much snow in the yard now as I did all winter. To think a week (or so) ago it was +20c and no snow left !

-4c high of 0c wind S-17km/h humidity: 80% Pressure 102.18kPa ^
Feels like -10c. Cloudy & 30% pop.

Had to go for a ground disturbance course a couple weeks back. The map they give you is un-readable. 40 min. late and the instructor wouldn't let me take the course. Chewed him and their office a new orfice and left. Found a new place to take the course...headed out in an hour for the day.
Funny thing about this course. I grew up on my Dad's heavy Const. co. D-8s, Hoe, Drag line etc. Been moving dirt all my life.....then move to AB and I'm not allowed to work unless I have a ticket that says I can move dirt. Instructors have a couple years, if that, moving dirt. Some simply took a training course to teach how and what to look for when moving dirt.
So every 2-3 years I have to re-new this ticket....or get run off of job sites.
Several other tickets needed as well. I wanted to challenge the tests and they wouldn't let me. I have to sit all day in a course that I could write in my sleep.

"ticket" / "license" / "permit"  = tax           s53

My father and I where Licensed Electricians, Plumbers, and HVAC contractors for years in the City we worked in. Bonded, Insured, etc., etc.  He had at least 30 years and I had around 20. He was the 3rd person that the City had issued a license to back in the 70's when it all started here. I changed occupations about 11 years ago and kept my licenses (tax) paid up in order to keep them current in case I would have ever needed them.  He had state licenses which only required you to send them around $100 a year and they were happy. Then a few years ago the state came along and changed the rules. My father was almost 70 and still working everyday. Anyone with previous licenses were to be "grandfathered" in.  He played their game and submitted all the paperwork they required........ and it came back........DENIED!!!!     He and I where both floored!   He told them to go to  s53 and gave them the bird, then kept right on working as if nothing happened. Even the City officials couldn't believe it.   "I'm 70 years old....what are they going to do to me?, I dare 'em", he'd say.    ^-^   Nobody ever said a word to him.

Wierd...didn't freeze last night !
+5c part cloudy this morning , then clearing to clear and sunny. Calling for +19c today  : scorcher !

Last evening I had 18 Mule Deer. The younger ones were playing chase. Man, those things can cover ground fast !

Got 98% on the test (First Aid).
Hate those questions that have two right answers....or I'd have had 100%.

Humidity: 50%......much more......it's sort of raining !

suz,

You are going out in the garden this afternoon in 15*? I'd be having a fire going in the house and drinking another pot of coffee j41

That is one drastic weather change in as much as 48hrs, correct me if I am missing something here.

Which cycle are you in, when do you hit the spring and summer months?

Yesterday we hit a 90* mark once again at the suns highest point only to cloud over by 3pm. Rained over night and looks as if the rain will continue for the next couple of days as well.

Outside temp right now, 61* muggy, cloudy, damp and calm winds.

The rest of Todays and Tonighs menu:Today: Thundershowers this afternoon following a period of morning rain. High 73F. Winds SSE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 70%. Rainfall around a quarter of an inch.

 
Tonight: Rain likely with a few thunderstorms. Low 54F. Winds ESE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 90%. Rainfall around a half an inch.

Back to the mud again.

Hehe this is the warmest week I've seen in months.  Official T-shirt wearing season - summer - started at the beginning of April although we did had have loads of snow during 2nd week, that was also the week my bobs decided to come into full lay, had a few start mid march. 

We don't usually see temperatures much higher than 18-19*C even when England & Central Scotland are having "heatwaves". The longest day will be on the 20th of June then its down hill from there again  :wink:

I wasn't looking at the bar scale. I was looking at the posted temps and both showed * neither showed *F or *C so I Assumed it was in F.

So sorry for my confusion. Post your temps in F for us Americans if you will please, otherwise I will have to dig out my conversion chart that I have to use for Reeves...

Since Reeves is quite older, I understand that *C is ingrained in his head as *F is in mine. You being quite Younger should be able to convert in your head. s020

Did you leave yet, or did you just get back in? I still haven't gone out to do the birds or check on the chicks. Raining to hard. The only thing I got done was bag up the trash and fed the dogs.

I guess I should get my  s53 in gear, and then put my seeder motor back together.

I see you change your gender again. I guess it gets old wearing a dress all day and no one to impress. Did the birds look at you funny also s020

"Talk about the birds not recognize n me, I went out there yesterday with out my cap on and they all spooked...Have a great day..."
I go out there every morning and so do the dogs. The birds actually know who the threats are. My dogs will accompany me in the pen in June when the pen is bone dry and the birds don't spook, they will walk up to the dogs, or the dogs will go to them and sniff.

Now, when a strange dog or person comes near the pen, the birds will go ballistic. During the Fall hunting season, when I am in camo, the birds freak out and will either fly to the first pen area or just run to the other side.

These birds are smarter then I thought.

Well time to finish off the balance of the coffee.

This rain is killing me. Every other day nothing but rain and temps just can't seem to get passed 65* and the lows in the upper 30*.

Last Thursday evening, while watching the last episode of CSI, at 9:45pm the power went out and it was raining as well. Nothing like having 300 + chicks in the dark and no heat.

Total loss of chicks after the cool down,(60*) in the I.H.O.P. brooder and (50*) in the barn open brooder, was 10. after 13 hrs. Amazing how they can adapt when necessary. Power didn't come back on until after 11am Friday.

Now add insult to injury, Saturday at 10am just before we were ready to leave the house, another power outage. So before we left on Saturday to get another generator, I hook up the house generator to the I.H.O.P. brooder and the barn brooders. Power wasn't restored until 5pm Saturday.

$80.00 bucks for 20gals of gas over the weekend to run the generators.  s80  s53

Hope you have a nice dry day!

GSP4,

Post what you see out the window when you either get up in the morning or when you come on line. Post the current temps, the highs for the day and the lows along with rain/winds. If possible, the next day, post what the actual high you had the day before, and any other conditions that you may feel important to your immediate area.

I have been keeping a journal on my farm with daily activities that seem to be important within my area, such as floods, high water, morning temps recorded when I get up along with sky conditions and winds.

I will also update the journal numerous times during the day on any current events, (this includes the temps and sun and wind conditions) that may be taking place either on the farm, or within the local area.

If nothing else, when I drop dead, and my son and his family eventually get the farm, they will be able to read what has happen over the years. It is almost like a diary, but not in the personal sense.

Outside temp at 0335 5-23-08 in Slate,WV 46.3* clear skies and calm winds. I anticipate the temp to drop to around 42* by sunrise before the upswing due to radiant cooling (clear skies).

Temps yesterday hit a high of 79* at 5pm with plenty of sunshine all day with winds out of the SW @ 3-6 mph.

Steve...my weather yesterday was much the same as yours. It came in from the east. The garage door faces west, so I sat and watched the T-Storm(s) roll over me. Cool !
Needed the break....had to bury a power line and dig in a second one to finish the barn yard off. Then load/unload all the trees I had cut down in the yard (about 40-50), in 22c sun ! When the T-storms rolled through it really cooled off nicely.

I just got finished with the birds and it looks like the calm before the storm.

This morning around 0700 we had a nice looking red morning. You know the old saying, Red morning sailors take warning and the counter to thatRed night a sailors Delight. It hold so true. When it is a red night at sunset, the following day always turns out great. If there is a red morning, guaranteed within the next few hours the weather turns to  c109 .

How deep did ya dig for the cable, and how far was the run? Where did ya dump the trees ya dug up?

Cables are 12/2 rated for under ground (in B.C. not here  :angel:) and 2' deep. Inside a plastic 1" water line pipe, up one of those steel fence posts you have seen. This is for if I want to one day put a light on the pole. Then a second wire runs down and over to the water line riser I put outside the property line.....in case one day me, or someone else, wants to install a stock water/tank. Power will be there for a heater.
I should mention, the power was a fairly short run. It is in the same ditch as the water line, which is about 8-9 feet deep. I ran it up to near the surface then 5-6' from there to the pole. Close enough for "farm work"  :grin:
Water line was kept at 8-9' deep, then straight up in an 8-10" pipe. No pressure in it. I'll leave it empty till/if needed in the future. The valve for it will be inside the stock tank in the pole barn. (you likely remember reading about that work I posted about last year in the Fence pole topic ? pictures in that topic show what I'm talking about)

Round 3  s53 !  More   s53  rain and thunder and lighting. So far since this morning, we have had over 3 inches and the bridge is about to flood and the  s53 is starting to pile up against it as well.

The radio station has had more NOAA Weather interuptions about servere T-Storms updates one can't keep track of them anymore.

The temps are now down to 67* and with the winds it feels more like fall weather. Ground saturation is about at the max and it won't be long before the trees start to fall over.

I think it is Miller Time  s020 can't do much of anything else.

High 19c
T-Storms this afternoon and evening.
Clearing over night , then rain for Friday and Saturday.

Off to work this morning....going to dig up a tank of some kind on an old gas lease.
H2S will be in the tank and ground from over flow and likely rusted out. H2S is highly corrosive. Personal monitor will be worn. Goes off, then have to be on supplied air to finish the job. Providing the concentration isn't high enough to kill me  ::)

Suppose to be in the cool 90's here next few days.    :x   

It's not suppose to be this hot around here,  I wish them southerners would keep their rotten heat to themselves!  After all this rain, you'll be able to cut the air with a knife.  I've been enjoying the nice cool temperatures (but could use less rain) we've been having here up until now.  We just can't win around here, if the Canadians aren't freezing us out, it's the Texans trying to burn us up the next day! I'm movin' to Canada where everythings free and cool.  Although I hate to leave yet, I'd like to stick around to see if Hussien Obama gets his chance to straighten this country and the world out.....?....he said he would.   :grin:  Or maybe I should "get", while the "gettins" good?

I think I'll go out and get eat up with flies and ticks today while I sweat profusely sitting in the shade.   ^-^  I might have to have a few "Buds" over.   :cool:

Slate, WV checking in with 72*, Hazy Hot and Humid. High 95* winds S @ 5-10 mph.

Over the weekend temps we hit 100.2* by 3pm on Saturday and Sunday. Mid morning temps were 91* where early morning temps were mid 70*

Time to go to the creek and try to remove a tree stump and root system that wouldn't clear an 8 foot hole from the flood.

Have a nice day!

Well once again another week and it looks like we are in for the heavy rains.

(http://sirocco.accuweather.com/nx_mosaic_640x480_public/sir/inmaSIRVA_.gif)

Outside temps here under lightning skies coming from the west: 73* calm winds.

The rest of the out look for Today: Scattered thunderstorms. A few storms may be severe. Storms may produce large hail and strong winds. High 82F. Winds SW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

Hopefully any high water will flush the stump out the culvert pipe.

Slider,

Glad to here about your chick production s98.

After all the  s53 in rain we had last week, the ground has cracks in it that are 1/2" wide and at least 2" deep. Food plots are doing well especially the bottom field that was under 5 feet. Just need a little rain to wash off all the mud on the 2" seedlings.

Sunflower and Milo plots really took off. It seems that the sunflower did better then the milo in certian areas.

This weather kinda sucks for being early June s176 Rain and T-storms over the weekend, and during the evenings earlier this week, lows going from the mid 60*s down to the low 40*'s the last couple of days.

We get the highs last week in the 90*s now continuing only low to mid 70*s. Feels more like fall setting in then the on coming of summer.

For today, temps only getting into the low 70*s and a continuing trend for the rest of the week as well. Another chance of T-storms passing through the area as well. Wind W @ 10-20 mph.

Have a nice enjoyable day j2

Me too! in Ohio.   Wouldn't be nearly as bad if it weren't for getting a couple of inches of rain, high winds, and hail in 15 minute periods every other day since March. Washing everything out, etc., etc. etc.!!!!!!!!!   I'm looking for a ten gallon hat with an umbrella that has downspouts in which will fill it up for bath water mounted on top.  I can probably catch 10 gallon of water off the hood of my truck..........every day!!     Glad it's not a Toyleta or it would have rusted away or the hail would have destoyed it!   ^-^

But hey, it could be worse, I could be in a flood somewhere.   :-|

Todays Outlook:Partly cloudy with afternoon thunderstorms. A few storms may be severe. High 79F. Winds WSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 40%.

Tonight: Scattered thunderstorms early, then partly cloudy after midnight. A few storms may be severe early. Low 54F. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 40%.


*****************************************************************************

Yesterdays outlook:was calling for Scattered thunderstorms developing in the afternoon. A few storms may be severe. High 77F. Winds WSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

Well yesterdays high hit 92* at 3pm. The expected a high was to be  77*  The scattered t-storms never made it here in the afternoon, but it did rear its ugly trend lastnight at 9:15pm and with winds gusting 30+/- mph  and dumping 1.5 inches of rain, lots of heavy battlefield thunder, and ground to cloud lighting, lasting well over an 1-hour.

This seem like the same type of weather pattern we had over 1 week ago when we were hit with the 2day storms that dump well over 4 inches of rain and all the local flooding.

The only day this week without any prediction of rain is Tuesday.

So,,,Tomorrow: Mostly sunny skies. High 79F. Winds NW at 5 to 10 mph. and Tomorrow night, Mostly clear skies. Low 53F. Winds light and variable. Will see how this plays out, since we have another unstable weather pattern for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday with the temps in the mid 80*s with the once again Isolated to Scattered T-Storm predictions.

Well back to the flooded pens this morning and puddled grass.

Have a nice day j2

I still think we are going into the same type of weather pattern we had over 1 week ago when we were hit with the 2day storms that dump well over 4 inches of rain and all the local flooding.

Minor Change?

The only days' this week now without any prediction of rain is today, Tuesday and Wednesday, pushing up the now Scattered-T-storms up to and including Saturday.

 :grin:


I know, these heavy down pours with 1-2" of water, washes everthing out. I have ruts where the food plots are. the plants in the food plots especially the sunflower are turning yellow from all the rain and not getting a chance to dry.

It looks like we are going to get hit here at the Wood/Wirt county line again. Lots of dark and threatening clouds South South west from us.

The only thing nice about today is that the high of 69* sounds very entertaining  s020

On Saturday before and after late afternoon T-storm, we had a very unsual guest up behind the barn left of the pond. It was a Red Fox chasing some young cottonTails.

When the storm hit the fox took off up the hill. An hour later the fox was walking the sidewalk by the flight pen and decided to sit and watch the birds like a trained dog, until I went outside and then it vanished.

I haven't seen the Red Fox since.

Hey Suz,

How about posting a picture overlooking the ocean with one of your sunsets at 22:06 hours. That would be 10:06 pm here. Our latest sunset was 8:55pm on June 29th, and is now on the decline - 1 minute per day.

It's raining here as usual, but it is the first easy rain with no lightning, I think, for the first time this summer.  Got 2 whole days in without any rain   :-o, I have seen alot of hay being cut and baled the last couple fo days. Got alot of fields cut myself with the bush hog.

I'm thinkin' of cancelling my white water rafting trip to the New River and just ride my boat down the creek that runs down my driveway every other day when it's raining.  The undergrowth/vegetation in the woods is incredible.

So................ what's the problem? Don't you have any weather up in AB? Reeves use to contribute to the weather, but he has slacked off. Just think, next year this time you can compare the dates.

Oh, and by the way, we hit 103* here in Slate, WV at 4:15pm and no breeze, and blue skies.

Saw the above on the way in. Grabbed a few "pops" and headed for the shop to enjoy the storm. Edmonton had a Tornado warning out. (an hour S.E. of me)
Storm missed me though !
This was Wednesday.

Doesn't look a lot better today though.

 j45

I know where you are coming from. The digital I have I bought over 10 years ago in 1998, when they first came out. It is an Olympus D-400 ZOOM I paid something like $799.00 for it. It still take great picture, but it is only 1.3 Megapixels.

I had a Yashica 35mm camera auto focus over 30 years ago, I don't remember the model, but it died and I still have the lenses. One is a Auto Yashinon-DS 50mm 1:2 and the other is a Auto Yashinon Zoom 1:4.5 f=75mm~230mm This lens is heavy as all can be.

I like the fact that on the digital, if you don't like delete  s020 and start over. No film to buy and no extra processing fees only to find out that the pictures look like crap.

I am willing to spend up to $1000.00 for one with standard 50mm lens and either a zoom lens, or telephoto lens with a decent size memory card.

Sunny and hot. Next rain called for is next Sunday.

As if I do not have enough to do......wife goes into work, they have a garden section, selling plants, trees etc.
Tells me they are on sale. (the trees) So like a fool I can be at times, I ask how much.
She tells me .94 (cents) so I ask how many there ? She says 30-40 ?
So I drive into town and load them up........76 Brandon Cedars 2 more thrown in free as they look poorly 78 total. Opps...5 are some kind of Juniper. Grows much the same as the Brandon.
Oh ya, two free Chive plants for the garden.
Oh ya....she also gets 10% off of all purchases there !
So, $64.30 for all the trees.

Now I have to figure out where to plant them all ! In 25+ C temps  s47

Hey Jake,
Have you tried covering your tomato plants when cool weather or frost is expected? then you can take it off when the warm weather returns, if it does.  Here's a tip, to allow the tomatoes to ripen quickly when their off the vine, just place them in a paper bag with a banana or two (apples might work too).  The gases given off by the banana will speed the process of ripening the tomatoes.

Good morning to you slider j2

Dark Roast this morning and watching the light low lying fog roll in.

The dark roast is not as strong as I though it would be from the way you had mentioned. I brew it the same as the medium.

Again, the best coffee I have ever had. It make Maxwell, Folgers and the likes, like amatures.

Hey Steve,
Thanks, i just hope i get to eat the melons before the damn coons do, I'm gonna try honeydews next year.  The birds are fine, cant build the large  accommodation yet as i will be doing it where my garden is, and right now i have eggplants and peppers there.  So once these crops begin to die down (around Oct.) I'll quickly add on some more space for my pheasants.  Until then i need to decide to add either soft netting or wire mesh, I'll think I'll go with the wire mesh, and to think how high, etc it will be.
I'm starting culinary school November 19, so at least I'll have time to catch up on other things i would like to do.

no yotes here, slider just coons and squirrels that cause devastation in the garden.  My house in North Carolina probably has these critters that you guys commonly find in your garden, hopefully next year i can plant there as well but i guess it wont be that easy with all those critters 'round.  By the way I'm going to NC on Sat to visit my cousins and see how the house on my property is doing.

Wow, that big!

Yep, it could be a little bigger maybe an acre and 1/2, thats why I'm thinking about raising birds there since I'll have plenty of room, but i wont be there all the time,its really more of a summer house for now (not completely done yet).  But i do have cousins who live across the house, maybe they wouldn't mind to feed the birds. I'm definitely going to plant crazy there, raising birds need more attendion than gardening does so.
 Alright guys, got to go to bed early tonight, wake up early to go to North Carolina tomorrow.  Going to JFK airport here in NY to Raleigh-Durham International Airport in NC.   p42 p42 :?: :?:   Hope the flight is good. Can't wait till tomorrow, words can't express how much i like and enjoy being in NC, it's my kinda world.
I'll be back Tuesday!!

Pheasant Hollow,

  Looks as though I picked a good week to be gone from this area,  it was just as hot here as it was in Vegas (104*/12% humidity). On the way back to the Columbus airport, as we were taking flight from the airport in Vegas, the pilot told what the temperature was in Columbus (98*/74% humidity), 102* I'm told in southern Ohio, and the people on the plane couldn't believe it was just as hot back home as it was there, plus with the high humidity to boot!   s16  Although their night temps are in the 80's and ours is in the 50's.  :cool:  And with their 2" of rain a year........they can have it!   :grin:  The place floods when it rains because they didn't/don't allow for street drainage to amount to anything.   :-|

I take it you had a wonderful time.

In all actuality WV, OH, and in Vegas, Temperature and Humidity has no relevance when you are in a climate controlled enviroment, that has been artifically regulated for your pleasure, or stimulation s020 , such as your home, Vegas or even at Wally-World, in the frozen food section  s020 sitting in a lawn with an umbrella and a cooler with a 6-pack  s020  waiting for the other (better) half to take her time doing the shopping while we hopefully can enjoy some of the entertaining visitors.

Thanks for the reminder, I've been bustin' my hind end around the past couple of days tryin' to get some things done.  It's been great weather to work on the land. I hope it's not a repeat of last fall when it started raining and never ended.  I never did get a decent amount of wood in because of the mud, I was working towards getting all that I would need for the entire winter in this fall while I can get the big truck out into the woods............ I need about 8 cords......  s2

Looks like we're really going to get it too.    s16

Rain just started again here in Slate, WV.  It rained like  s53  here early this morning around 5am. Stopped in time for me to take care of the birds and then rained some more until noon. It was dry up until 4pm when it started to drizzle.

Good thing I cut the  s53 in grass yesterday since this  s53 is suppose to continue until Monday.

I am like CharlieHorse, I still haven't finished getting the firewood wood in yet. I need another 6 cords and I will be set for the winter. Firewood is the primary and the electric heat is backup.

Keep dry jaime j2 If ya can't post a picture of you looking like the Gorton's Fishermen.

I spent all day yesterday up on the hill splitting logs that were better then 6 ft in dia. My sorry as son-in-law can come up with the sorry @$$-ed excuses to help.

The last time I did big pieces like this, was in the 70's and I was early 30 years of age, and at that time, it was still a two man operation.

4 more cords to go and I should be all set. Then I have to sweep the chimney.

Hiya Steve

To be honest its felt like winter all year ... we really didn't get much of a summer.  I don't know if they do it in the states, but our clocks go back an hour at 2am Sunday 19th, so we gain an hour of daylight which sort of means winter is starting.  Usually winter lasts from November to mid March here, winters are mixture of either pouring rain & hail or really hard frosts with some snow ... I don't know if its an old wives tale but they say it gets too cold for snow, daytime temps are between 25oF -35oF, but the wind chill makes it feel much colder .... but when we get snow we get it good for a coastal village ... open fields cause snow drifts that have been known to block off the village from the outside world for a few days, but the salt air soon shifts it .... our council are never prepared with gritters & plows or they concentrate on keeping the main roads open and forget about us ... daft cos we're only 13 miles from the city not completely remote.....

Im absolutely usless with geography, so don't know hot & cold bits of the US .... do you get rough winters where you are?

Suz

Suz,

Winter here since 2000 (that's when I move here from NY) have had its ups and downs. The first year here it snowed before Our Thanksgiving which is the last Thursday in November. Heavy snow's usually come in Jan, Feb.

We have gotten I think in 2001 or in 2002 better then 3 feet of snow at the end of Dec and into Jan. It seemed like all it did was snowed.

We change our clocks as well. See the topic that CharlieHorse stated in the Site and Forum Announcements/ Feedback

It is down to 25* and the sun hasn't come over the hill yet. When it does, the temps will start to warm and then the leaves will start dropping as well.

Good thing, the deer are hungry.

30* here this morning with some chance of snow/rain tonight, tomorrow and tomorrow night.

High for today only 48*

Seen a lot of deer movement over the weekend with this cold front moving in. Even the ground hog and squirrels are going crazy after the nuts that are still in the tree or on the ground.

Well looking at the radar, it is showing snow in the area but it is dissipating prior to making it to the ground. Just as well.

If the snow does make contact to the ground, it will be the first time in my life that I have ever seen snow before Halloween.

The Democrats blame Bush for the ecomy, and I as a Republician, blame Al Gore for this Global Warming that is occurring here. That's is right folks........ It is all Al Gore's fault. Thank him for the cold weather.

The Anniversary Date for this topic is November 28th. It will be one year old with the most posts, currently at 963 and being the most viewed, currently at  22,187 views, and 65 pages running.

When we get past the November 28th date, you will be able to compare with last years date, to see if Al Gore has any standing on his global warming in your area, that is if you actual posted you current temps for that day.

Keep it going if nothing else, it's for prosperity. j2

We've had snow here on June 10th. Had two so far this year. Right now its a much enjoyed mild spell, had sunny and high 60s for three days, this too shall pass so I'm enjoying it.  The trees are almost bare, a good rain or snow will strip whats left.

30 this morning with very light snow on the grass.
It started snowing again here about 09:40 and it hasn't stopped yet at 15:56. ground's still too warm for it to stay. Melting nearly as fast as it's falling. If it had stayed we'd have about ten inches so far. Currently it's 34.  high's supposed to be in mid 30's next couple days with low's about 21.

There's a 180 acre farm just down the road that could probably be bought for maybe......say......$350,000?   :-|

Sell your place or just claim bankruptcy while the gittin' is good.  ^-^

Don't forget to bring your chainsaw and snow shovel. If things don't work out, you could probably always pitch a tent in the woods.

P.S.  Don't forget your SCBA.

Nice pictures there CharlieHorse  s98 !! I took some early in the am as well, but they didn't turn out as nice as yours.

The snow total for yesterday morning here on the farm amounted to 1/8 of an inch until it warmed up. It snowed all day either as flurries or as snowshowers. We even had a total white out that lasted 10 minutes yesterday a 4pm, with winds gusting to 11mph.

As of midnight, and up until this morning at 4:40 am we have accumulated 7/8 of an inch of snow in Slate, WV, and it is still coming down with the temps hovering at 30*

Congratulations on the 6pt and  s98 , are you butchering it yourself or are you having it done elsewhere?

I have a 9-point that has been hanging around here the last couple of weeks that looks to be in about 140 lbs live weight. Monday is gun/buck season, so I may take a shot at him.

Well it is 1 Year Today that this topic was started.

Temperature consensus

What is or was the temps at your house this morning?

The temps bottomed out here on the Wood/Wirt county, WV morning at 7am.

We had 19* calm winds and ice crystal frost.

Yahoo weather and Accuweather are telling me it is only 19*.

How accurate do you feel these Internet weather stations are compared to your outside weather stations or thermometers?

Didn't figure, just read the themometer hanging outside. one side is C*, the other is F*, for some of us Cnds, who never really changed to metric.
I still figure in inch/feet, miles and gals.

The snow has once again started. Thanks Reeves  s176 you just couldn't resist could you.

While I was out walking this morning, I noticed a dead pine tree that had fell. Why is it that when trees fall, they always fall across a path?

Now tomorrow I have to get the chainsaw out and cut it up to get it off of the sidewalk.  s53 me I never seem to get a break.

 s53 it I just looked out the window and now my phone line is laying on the ground... This day really sucks!

It's not snowing here.....I think it's snowing in the Yukon and not hitting the ground till it hits the States ! With the wind it is not so much falling, as going straight south !

That's a good question. I have some paths/trails/roads that seem to be more prone to trees falling across (every  week it seems) than others. Some seem to never get blocked and some have the same spot blocked over and over. It's aggrivating, especially when you don't have a chainsaw in your pocket.  But on the other hand, it's easy pickin's for firewood for me.

Reeves,



The official position of the World Natural Health Organization in regards to global warming is that there is NO GLOBAL WARMING! Global warming is nothing more than just another hoax, just like Y2K and the global freezing claims in the 1960's and 70's were. Global warming is being used to generate fear and panic. Those behind this movement are using it to control people's lives and for financial gain.

Not TOO bad here -21*c, but the west coast has been hit hard:

Chilled Vancouver commuters faced their second day of winter hell today, as an additional ¼ centimetre of the peculiar white stuff fell, bringing the lower mainland to its knees and causing millions of dollars worth of damage to the marijuana crops. Scientists suspect that the substance is some form of frozen water particles and experts from Saskatchewan are being flown in. With temperatures dipping to the almost but not quite near zero mark, Vancouverites were warned to double insulate their lattes before venturing out.

Vancouver police recommended that people stay inside except for emergencies, such as running out of espresso or biscotti to see them through Vancouver's most terrible storm to date. The local Canadian Tire reported that they had completely sold out of fur-lined sandals.

Drivers were cautioned to put their convertible tops up, and several have been shocked to learn that their SUV's actually have four wheel drive, although most have no idea how to use it.

Weary commuters faced soggy sushi, and the threat of frozen breast implants. Although Dr. John Blatherwick, of the Coastal Health Authority reassured everyone that most breast implants were perfectly safe to 25 below, down-filled bras are flying off the shelves at Mountain Equipment Co-op.

Man just when I think I have it bad, someone else is in worse shape. i9

Tonight they are calling for -37c....so about -42ish at my place. Sort of neat when it gets this cold. It will be snowing, without a cloud in the sky. How much depends on how high the humidity is. These water particles will freeze = snow.
Plus/or, it will cause hore (sp?) frost. It will.may build up on wire etc...

5* at 5:30 am dropped down to 2* by 6:30
Will be in the mid 20's for the highs today. Another mix of snow and rain to come in tomorrow.
I hope it's snow and not the rain. With two feet of snow on the roof it could be messy.

-2 F  when I got up, warmed up to 6 at 11, locally we've had more snow so far then all last winter, also been colder earlier, and lower.

This is NOT my idea of global warming. I think that extends to the border around gores mansion.

Tried a roof rake and they are more work than getting on the roof and "pushing" the snow off with a snow shovel.
However, the roof rake would likely be safer, or for females to use  :wink:

Yesterday was warm at about -3c but snowing and strong winds from the south.

This morning the wind is strong from the NW and -5c. By this evening it's supposed to be -18c and getting cooler through the night. Tomorrow morning will be about -25c at my place.
Should be fun shoveling snow off of the roof today  ::)

Where I lived in the Arava in Israel, south of the Dead Sea. In august it stays above 100 F for weeks, and thats the morning temperature.

A little different here in northern MI, it was -11 when I looked this morn, stiff breeze blowing.  Supposed to be this way for the week.

Title: Re: How cold was it this morning by you?
Post by: Pheasant Hollow Farm on January 26, 2009, 08:47:53 AM
Pete,

The last snow we had, being the first snow of the New year, hung around for over a week. We had flurries over the weekend that amounted to a dusting, due to the ambient temps reaching above 32* and then melting, then dropping below to start to accumulate once again.

The snow lately has been more of a hindrance then anything else. I look at this weather with the snow to either SH^t or get of the Pot. I would rather see massive snow all at once then to deal with the tease.

The last decent snow was when we first move down here, the winter of 2001. We had better then 2.5 foot of snow and with the cold temps it just added to the accumulations each time it snowed. I think we had a total snow accumulation for Jan-Feb of 2001 close to 3 foot on the ground before the temps were above 32* to start the melt and that's when the floods came.

I have seen more snow here in WV within the last 9 years then I have seen on Long Island, NY where I had moved from in the last 15 years living there. Of course the snow fall was lighter on LI being on the Atlantic coast. But when we did get the snow it was a punishment for lack of snow in prior years.

I love the snow and the Four Seasons. You wouldn't/couldn't get me to move to, or to even visit Florida on a bet. To many Roaches that you can place a saddle on and ride into town, along with all the illegals down there. I consider that place called Florida, at least the Southern part little Cuba.

Maine, NH, VT, all choice place to live out a retirement, such as WV. Job opportunities in these states are really far and few, unless you are bringing an industry with you, or going to be self employed.

I am retired, but the wife works. FED Gov. Worker,  :grin: she gets the same base pay no matter where we  were to move. The other bennies are standard of living expense. 4 more years, and she will retire. Then I think I will get a job. j2

Hey Pete,

When I was in the Naval Reserves, I did 2 weeks in La. If you ever get the chance to go to the Mardi Gras, you won’t be disappointed.

I think I could pass up the winter to move to La, if the property was what I was looking for.

Steve, I don't think I could stand the crowds at Mardi Gras. A little break from the cold and snow would be ok.
It's NH and I wouldn't expect anything less. I love the seasons.

I have never boasted so much for a state in my life. I love WV, I have been here going on 9years, I have never shown my love for NYS or Long Island in the 59 years that I lived there.

Good morning Steve

I feel much the same about Michigan, great place to live, not so great if you have to find a job, they are becoming an endangered species here. 

Coolish here this morn, clear sky, you can see the stars up close and personal, its -30F this morn, with some breeze.  But that global warming is about to kick in any moment.

Well Ode, when you are ready for 124 F, I've got just the place for you to go hiking.

Where I lived in the Arava in Israel, south of the Dead Sea. In august it stays above 100 F for weeks, and thats the morning temperature.

A little different here in northern MI, it was -11 when I looked this morn, stiff breeze blowing.  Supposed to be this way for the week.
lol im good ,jake thanks for the invite,but ill stick with the paradise temps we have here ...82 for a high 63 for a low ..running around in a sundress with bare feet watering my flowers is my idea of winter... c53

What a mess out there right about now. 2.5 inches of snow yesterday and then by mid day the freezing rain started and it hasn't stopped since.

It kind of looks like the Ice Palace from the movie Doctor Zhivago.


I have been out there twice so far de-icing the satellite dishes.

17* at 8AM. The snow is coming down. Kids are home from school again.
Weather man is calling for 6-12 or 10-20. All depends when and where the snow/rain mix line is.
Should be a treacherous ride home for most. For me 4x4 and will take it slow.
The last ice storm cost me 100 bucks. I got stuck half way through an intersection and the light turned red.
Cop pulled me over and when I explained the situation he said I wasn't sliding. Jerk... So I payed up.

Well, the hubby and I are both taking a snow day today... Figured it would probably be a good idea since we've been awake since 2:45am listening to trucks, 4x4 trucks, stuck in front of our house. One's transmission apparently locked up and he kept revving the engine. Nice way to be awoken. And since then, it's been a steady stream of vehicles sitting around trying to decide how to drive on 3 inches of snow and ice on the road. Stupid. There's still 2 stuck in the ditch up the road a bit that they apparently gave up on for now. So, It's still freezing rain and it's around 30 degrees and we're supposed to get a couple more inches of snow later. I can't wait..... s176

Single digits both sides of zero.

The last couple weeks these temps have caused a bit of snow melt. This in turn has caused the snow pack on back roads to turn into glare ice. Travel is interesting.
It has also caused an ice surface on the snow pack in fields etc.
This is causing travel and finding food for all wild critters some grief.

This will also have an effect on snow packs on steep slopes. With this hard surface, slides (avalanches) will happen more frequently .
Which is of no concern to me.....it's so flat here I can see Manatoba !

You live on a rock surrounded by salt water , and you run out of salt and winter road abrasives ?

You need to set up a desalination plant. This will supply endless water, with salt as a by product that you can then stock pile for your roads, with enough left over to sell some to the Irish and/or English !

Set up chrushing plants for the various sizes of gravel needed for the building of roads and more !

Peppers and tomatoes wow your early, i still have at least 2 more months until i can get those set out.  What varieties did you pick?, its so frustrating to chose what kind of variety you want their are like hundreds of different kinds of peppers and tomatoes etc.. to chose from, sometimes it can drive you crazy because you want to chose a good variety this year.  Dont transplant them when its sunny outside wait for the afternoon or better on a cloudy day is best.

Sounds good, yeah i tried banana peppers last year they were really good.  You should try a variety of tomato called Oxheart its a very meaty variety.  Yeah a long planting season is great where i'am its runs april to sept and thats it, hopefully one day went i do move to NC it will be nice and much longer.

today cold and windy

Went to go feed the birds today, when i noticed something moving in the dove's nestbox, i went to take a closer look and to my surprise it was a baby dove...............................    p42 , i just couldnt believe that my birds had a baby and i didnt even know it.  This is a good sign of Spring (they were probably anxious to lay some eggs just dont know why they couldnt wait till next month when its spring  j41) Anyway i'm happy. 

Hope you guys notice some signs of spring soon, its truly a great feeling.
