The Weather.

Shoveling is great exercise. :/
Lol, indeed. I was visiting a friend yesterday and her husband was all happy about getting to shovel because he loves that it's such great exercise. I was like...naaaaaaahhhh, I prefer my lovely hikes. ;)
 
1:30 am and I got about ten flakes. It's going to be uncomfortable to watch all of the weather people back peddle and explain why this storm was such a bust...at least for my area. It's almost laughable. At least my office is closed and I get a day off. I'm still hoping for a few inches, though...there's still time.

I wrote a little song and I'm posting it on all of the FB weather pages that I follow:

Oh the weather outside ain't frightful,
And for snow hate-ers it's de-lightful,
The county cancelled work wouldn't you know,
Where's my snow, where's my snow, where's my snow?

:sob:
 
I have a wood burning stove but haven't used it since l got the kittens last year. They don't seem to have any sense to stay away from it.

I don't think I will be losing power with this so called storm. I'm pretty lucky in that whenever the power does go out, it's never for more than 5-6 hours so its bearable.
 
Awww, KLS, I'm sorry you didn't get more snow, as I know how much you love it.
We have about a foot or so, and I for one am glad they were somewhat wrong, at least for my part of CT. Eastern CT got slammed, though. They have over two feet in some areas. It's so weird how one of the end of the state got barely four inches and the other end got whacked. It's not really that big of a state. I'm sort of in the middle, so they are saying we might get up to 15 or 18 inches total. It's really windy, though, so I'm glad they canceled work. We still have a travel ban on state roads, so it's just as well that we didn't have to go in. And so far, no power outages. I hope it stays that way :)

One of the weather guys back here last night was predicting a bust. Maybe they should call him up? :p

We might be getting snow today and tonight but it doesn't feel like it's going to happen. I'm sitting here with warm sunshine coming through the windows.

We are supposed to get a couple of inches. I'm still at work, so I hope it doesn't start until after I get home. :D
 
Still no snow here. There was a brief sleet shower last night but the ground was wet so it didn't settle. I only saw it because I went out to give the neighbour's cat some biscuits as they haven't fitted a catflap for him. He must have been freezing. It seems like in the time I've lived here I have constantly fed cats that roam around when their families have gone out. How difficult/ expensive is it to get a catflap fitted?! :bang:
 
It started out (relatively) warm compared to the last few days, but it's gotten much colder. Wind chill advisories for tonight. Ugh. And more snow coming Sunday/Monday, which could muck up my Super Bowl plans, namely watching my team with my family. I hope it holds off until overnight.
