There's Always The Weather

[Dave (imported)]

On a much more serious note...

How are our memebers in the midwest (like Chicago, Illinois, Ohio) doing?

They got hit bad as far as I can tell.

It was so bad here that Bobbie, OneBallBoi, Tome and myself missed our weekly eunuch breakfast this morning.

From Central Coastal O.C. there is a Weather Alert for the Santa Ana or Santa Anna winds.

Sky is clean and blue with bright sun and temp around seventy. Watered heavily before with imported water to make sure my garden holds up as colder temperatures and winds can be very desiccating. And it does get cold at night like maybe down to 55F.

Sorry about Dave's electricity as it wasn't his storm. Because I really 'hate' that, i installed a automatic, emergency, natural gas electric generator.

Streetglide likewise reports being storm bypassed without the electric outage.

fhunter, for the report from Petrograd.

Mud is good to stop tanks too.

Looking forward to hearing from our record storm experienced member and not just the bypassed ones. Maybe they cannot get online.

Today I went to Armstrong Garden Center and bought some sweet snap pole peas, red leaf lettuce and some black and boysenberries.

Hey, my neighborhood was lucky. Lots of places took the brunt of a really bad storm. Fortunately, geography and Jet Streams conspired for it to miss me.

And I have seriously thought about getting an automatic emergency generator.

Here in Wallkill, NY, about 70 miles northwest of NYC, we got about a foot of assorted crap over that last day or so...To make the total in the last month about 6-7 feet...of snow...and most of it is still out there...Huge piles of the filthy stuff...But...like everything else..soon to be gone...The sooner the better. It's also been unusually cold here...Better days ahead...dragonfly

There is a bumper sticker here:

"tanks are not afraid of the mud" and another one, more rare: "dirty tank can't be seen in combat"

er sticker here:

"tanks are not afraid of the mud" and another one, more rare: "dirty tank can't be seen in combat"

And here I thought it was;

a repaired pot hole would stop a tank

they would be so confused and worried

(What is it? What's going on?)

BECAUSE after all we know only a truly free society repairs their pot holes and the WEATHER is so hard on roads.

Air is dry and fifty degrees is a cold fifty this evening along the central O.C. coast.

Doing some hand watering with imported liquid and thought I would report,

Narcissus and Loquat are post flowering.

Lime & Lemon are full of ripe fruit and producing the next generation. Avocado threatening to blossom.

Royal Apricot and Cherry trees are cracking their shelled buds and showing some color.

Mission Fig still quite dormant.

Sweet shelling peas, onions, garlic, lettuce growing in large garden boxes. Beefsteak and Cherry tomatoes initiating while ripening is a weird sweet pepper.

Should tell ya somethin' of the weather from

Central coastal O.C.
