Or perhaps early saturday. Looks like it could be a good one... major winds and high-end blizzard conditions up high. I think it should be mostly snow... perhaps mixing with a bit of rain at pass level? Lots of wind is possible even down low... power outages, trees blocking roads, all sorts of fun.

Source(s), please? Sound like normal weather for this time of year or no?

A bit stronger than our typical storm, but not crazy, moonspots. Perhaps a 1 per year level storm, according to most forecast models?

Thank you. Probably a good thing that we're not driving out for Christmas this year....sure will miss seeing the grandkids though.

It is...November. Weather here is supposed to be Chance Of Rain Or Snow after today. It was 24 degrees here this morning. We are prepared. smile.gif Found a way to get those heavy sand tubes back into the pickup bed by myself. They are heavy beastly things. I probably should wax the Yooper scooper.

What's especially fun about sock puppets is that you can make each one unique and individual, so that they each have special characters. And they don't have to be human––animals and aliens are great possibilities

It was like this 200+ years ago it seems. https://lewisandclarkjournals.unl.edu/item/lc.jrn.1805-11-11

The storm has weakened significantly. Now looks like an utterly average event. Should get a decent amount of snow for the mountains though, so thats good.

Yes, plus on the news last night they said the wind speeds will be strongest further south. I don't like being at my place in Verlot during a windstorm, there are a lot of big trees.

Go placidly amid the noise and waste, and remember what comfort there may be in owning a piece thereof.

My plan is always to be in Idaho by now, but you know how plans go..

Waiting for the white death to arrive......
