I’ve been to New Hradec.  It’s down in a low spot where the cold air would pool.  Only gets THAT cold if there’s no wind.   And NGL, stupid cold with no wind really isn’t so bad.

Apropos of nothing, I'm still in love with the Tech fan who covers her mouth immediately after screaming obscenities.

Folks I had to put on a light jacket recently when I was fishing after the sun went down and the wind kicked up. I swear the temperature must have dropped below 70 that night. T&P to everyone dealing with your own rough weather! 🙂

Sarcasm aside, I have dealt with brutally cold weather in my life and snow that didn't stop falling for 9 straight days and I still had to go to work. Snow looks beautiful if you live in the right places, but man it makes your daily routine so much harder to get through. If any of y'all ever want a break from really cold weather and want a free place to stay just pm me. I'll do the same for any of y'all that I have already done for one of my friends back in NYC. 

 

Fargo this weekend. 85 degree swing from the last few days. may even break out the shorts and get a little color on the legs. Damn doesnt look like we'll get warmer than anywhere in texas as they get out of their freeze 

Sunday
A 20 percent chance of rain after noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 40. South southwest wind 9 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 23 mp

Edited by MNLonghornFUKM

We're going to be pushing 50 on Monday.

It was -23 in my old man's vehicle this past Tuesday.

In the car.

We never got rid of the damn box elder bugs this winter.  My daughter finds them dead on the floor and will pick them up look at them and go "bugs?  bugs?" while my wife screams.

Dust to Dust powder and Six Feet Under spray my dude.   They  (bugs) are stuffed full of sap and waiting out the winter cold in your place.  Dead is good.

We had wind gusts up to 69mph yesterday and dealt with this for a bit this morning…

I don't think so, there's no airport of any size within at least 50 miles.

Not far away we had a 50-car pile-up on interstate Friday. Dust storm, several fatalities.

You’d think by now we would all be inured to Midwest weather by now, but it never ceases to amaze 

65 yesterday.  4-8" of snow today (closer to a foot 30 miles north or west).  50 on Friday.

It's snowing here, too.  This is the time of year I'm ready for the snow to end.

Man, not me. I wish we would get all of our snow now. It melts quickly and has visible benefits. 

We had a crazy snow storm over the weekend - We went up to Vermont to make syrup (documented - HERE). We went up in nice weather on Friday. It was in the 50s that day and down to 40s that night. We woke up to 6" of snow.

It made for fun syrup making

We had a little more but similar today. I think my lawn wasn’t nearly as visible as yours. Weather was sucky today - cold and rainy the rest of the day. Made dinner out a pain.

Almost broke the snowblower out from storage.

I ran the gas out of mine, it would take a freak blizzard to get mine out.

Gonna plant some soybeans tomorrow.  Fuck off, winter.

On the Lord’s Day?  You’re going to break down.

My uncle custom-dug sugar beets back in the day.  Despite his devout Catholicism, he always started the season on a Sunday.  "That way, if we're every broke down for a day, it doesn't fell like we're behind."

I get it.  Logic tracks.

ETA
Northern IA and southern MN are gonna get a lot of work done this week.  Gonna look real different by Easter.  Hopefully AI4SU shuts down long enough for church.

We balked.  But not because of that.

We’ll be planting next Sunday for sure.  That’ll really chap the big guy’s ass.

If they can play football on the Lord’s Day then farmers can plant soybeans that day also.

Well if it makes you feel any better the weather is absolutely beautiful in Stillwater today. 
I understand Gundy introduced CCR by the wrong name last night. Probably didn’t earn him any points with the tired fan base.
