The Cold Weather Is Here!

Get your shorts ready by the weekend we are looking at 60*, tommorrow they say 40s the rest of the week till it jumps up. Its January

That means I'd better not walk within 10' of my house. 6" thick ice dams and 7' long icicles weighing 70 lbs hanging over the edge will be dropping like spears.

Ha,ha,ha, yeah me too Smitty! I just put brand new one piece extruded gutters for my porch rebuild last summer. They are full of snow and ice now with giant icicles. Had I put the crappy old vinyl jobbers, they have split apart by now!

If I had gutters, all of this would be on the ground already. Gutter and all ...

I've got ice dams. Luckily with the warmer weather these past few days the damn snow we got several weeks ago is finally starting to melt.

It was -25 on Friday morning and look what's coming.

Man that Keystoker is gunna be working this week, aye Bob? Makes our temps down here look like the tropics.

A brutal week ahead in the single digits for high, single and double negative digits for low... both stoves cooking....
