33 and snowing. I think it's spring in South America though so definitely time for a change.

You joke, but I actually went to Costco and HEB (local supermarket) today. Both places were packed with shoppers prepping for the apocalypse. You had to hunt for a parking space like it was Christmas time at the mall. Lines for the checkout were very long. Every other shopper had cases of bottled water (lol) in their shopping cart. Costco was completely wiped out of eggs.
Also - I misspoke in my last post. The snow is predicted for Tuesday, not tomorrow. Tomorrow is just supposed to be damn cold.

We're used to getting snow, but it usually doesn't stick around too long. This stuff has been on the ground for more than a week and isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Last night went down to 7 with a high today of 17. They're calling for 7 degrees again tonight.

It's quiet out here. Well, sometimes. In the Spring, you almost can't sit out on the deck because of all the noise from the peepers and bull frogs in the two ponds that are just over the hill. My property runs all the way down to the Rappahannock River which is at the bottom of that ridge in the sunrise photo. Just about had it with all this cold though. 40's and 50's is more the usual for this time of year. There's too much snow for golf. It's too cold to work in my woodshop. So I am keeping myself occupied by painting a room in the house. Patched some drywall yesterday. Will start taping it today. Going a little stir crazy.
Snowpacolypse in the greater Houston area ends today. We had ~90% melt yesterday and back to freezing temps overnight. Today we go back above freezing to finish melting any remaining frozen snow, slush and ice. Kids in our neighborhood had a blast throwing snowballs around. I actually shovelled my driveway and sidewalks for the first time ever in my life.
