How Does Your Garden Grow?



Sunrise, Friday, February 20. Red sky in the morning, Sailor take warning


Some snow avalanched off the solar panels. I hope none of the little critters got buried.


Red sky in the morning and snow it begins


Not much of a storm. 1.5 inches of snow. There might have been more snow, but during the overnight hours, we got some sleet. The top layer of snow was a hard crust.


"A" came to clear the stairs, walk, the mailbox, and to remove the slush from the end of the driveway.


The Tundra


The squirrels were busy this morning as we wait for Da Snow


The weather dudes have been dancing and wishing all Winter. They are finally getting the big one. A storm is coming up the East Coast, known as a Nor'easter. It has the potential for blizzard conditions. I'm in the 12 -18 inch path though the weather dudette this morning said we might be on the line for the up to 2 feet.


I think this is a much more accurate weather map for the 600th day of February. Will someone knock that insipid smile off the face of the snowman? Is it July, yet?

  1. You are in for a big dump if the forecast holds up. Yup, totally screwed. Never mind we already are living in a white world. I'd love to think this would be it...I guess I can dream because there's already some snow chances in the week ahead. Hope it's not too much snow for you.

  2. So...... you've had an inch and a half and you have 12- 18" coming!? I seem to remember you putting heating coils or something on your front porch and step....? Do they work well? i may wish for snow here in TX now and then but i don't envy all that snow... Be safe......make something crafty! :) Hugs! deb

    1. The front steps are electrified. The purpose to melt ice from the front steps. Steps face North so no sun. During heavy snow, the stairs can't keep up with Mother Nature. They will need to be shoveled and then electricity can take care of the rest. Yup, play day in the studio

  4. I love the weather map, but the snowman's grin would irritate me. I hope the snow will not be as bad as you fear.
