Our Weather-Snowflakes

It's starting to snow now. the flakes are like lint. As I child I remember this kind of snow. We use to have a saying; God is cleaning out his Clothes drier. It is so light and fluffy, one could almost see each snow flakes design. The temps are in the teens. so the snow is not heavy. I Love snow.We are not suppose to get much here in the Baltimore area. The accumulation is going to be south of us. We are planning a trip to the Ski resort tomorrow. I will be getting a lot of photos for next week postings.

Windy Weather Today

The weather here is very windy and raining. I can hear the howling of the wind around the house. We have trees down, lines down and some electric off. It reminds me of March winds. However It still is winter. The temps are climbing to the 60's, a warm front moving by. I have chimes outside and loves hearing them. All the different sound tones, when I was little I loved listening to them. So now I will brave the wind and rain, try to use an umbrella and go out. Need to get some milk and eggs.

Aloha Friday-Weather outside is frightful....

So the weather is going to be a wintry mix this weekend. I do not do well in ice and sleet. Going to stay in and watch TV. That's right ..Watch The Telly.
My line up will be:

8:00-9:00 PM	Ghost Whisperer
9:00-10:00 PM	Medium
10:00-11:00 PM	Numbers

Just found out "Hope for Haiti Now" will be on all network channels and some cable ones....so I will have to dial up a movie. Not that I'm not for helping Haiti but too much death has been around me and I am trying to stay up. The Mummy is on and Star trek, may I will watch a pay per view one.

Question: What will you be watching tonight?

Bird Watching 101

This video amazed me. The birds coloring matches the tree and leaves. Watch carefully til the end.... a visitor will check their work.

It's Friday; let get ready.....

It's Friday, a sunny day today and warming up. Heard we are suppose to have a winter storm this Sunday. You know how it is, great weather before the storm . Now is the time to do some outside work. The pool top needs to be drained, the water/ice in the fountain needs to be removed. Decks and patio due for their brushing and the gardens raked. The pellet stove pipe will need to be cleaned out. Oh yes I do make these a must in between the storms. I feel is makes it easier when the spring comes. I can enjoy the season better. All the animals have been digging for their stashes. So, I need to straighten up a bit. How is the weather in your neck of the woods? Nice enough to grab some sun?

Snow Around the World

I thought I would do something different and take you on a tour of this Arctic Freeze storm. I do not remember having one that has affected so many places at one time. Lets start with Spain.

This is how it works: hold down your CTRL key and click on each Blue link. That will open up a window for each and keep this window open. Be sure to leave a message on each blog telling how you enjoyed their photos. You can X out of each window as to travel, Then My window will still be open at the end. Let me know how you enjoyed the Snow Show.

Our Arctic Freeze Winter

We are in the winter months here and the Arctic Freeze has visited once already. It is returning for the week. Last night it Snowed about 2 inches. Now the freeze is coming behind it. We heat our Solarium and Laundry room with a pellet stove. I put it on low and closed the doors last night. This morning when I went out to check the pellets. it was 80 degrees! Like Florida inside and Winter wonderland outside. Boy does that stove heat. During the day I leave the doors open to the kitchen. The first floor gets the heat. Our heat pump doesn't even come on! It will be curious to see if that will be the case with the arctic freeze.
