2-4" of snow?

[Bob McCarty]

7" of snow the night before, -15* this morning. Warming up above freezing tomorrow when I'll plow.

[SamsFarm]

I think we got about 4" of fresh snow on top of what the warm spell and rain melted and turned to ice!

I know the road is quiet, and vehicles passing by are slower than normal!

Odot plowed and layed down their typical salt pollution!

Forecast for "up to" 3" tonight! We shall see!!!

[Don McCombs]

No rain, snow or ice in Cedar Key.

We are facing some severe weather for our area. With six Boder Collies running around and stories of power outages in some of our area, I have become somewhat concerned with what to do with these guys should we have a significant power outage where they can't stay warm. Rosanne and I can seek shelter elsewhere, but I would not leave my buddies behind.

Hay, straw, loose or bales make a kennel in a sheltered area for the dogs.

Straw bales have an R value of around 27.

Although the back porch is kept at 60 to 65 degrees, a couple of the dogs already head for the barn to sleep in the hay or straw. With the temps going down to 0 the next couple of nights I am concerned if the power goes out for a prolonged time.

[SamsFarm]

Look on the bright side!

Coyotes and wolves, cousins to the family K9, survive in the snow, wind and rain without a shelter and without hay / straw bedding!

Have your generator ready?

[tomstractor]

I don't know about coyotes living out in the cold. They seem to be smarter than that. There is an old truck camper, with no door, somebody left out in the woods not far from my place. A couple of years ago I was on a walk in the snow and looked in a window and 2 coyotes were curled up in some grass they must have dragged in. They never looked up, I left in a hurry. They looked warm enough.

We heat with wood, and I have generators and stock up on fuel. So even in power outages we stay just as warm as we do with shore power or what ever you call grid power.

Got around 8" total here, not counting drifts

Used the Cub today! Coulda / shoulda used chains because of all the ice from the other days rain.

Probably woulda been a much better idea to have left the Cub rest in the barn and got the Deere out

You sure they were coyotes? Not someones dogs.
Where was your sidearm?

If that woulda been my place, I woulda been blasting me some coyotes!

[tomstractor]

Yes definitely coyotes. We have many in our area, run through our yard at night. Yes should have had a sidearm. Back the next day and no sign of them. Maybe scared them off their den.

[Pap]

Y'all can have all of the snow. We ain't to crazy about it down here.
Suits me if it don't ever snow again.
And we also have them stinking coyotes.
A 243 takes pretty good care of them.

[SONNY]

looks like possible 8" or less here, BUT drifts 12 feet deep. It goes from bare ground to 12 feet deep in a couple hundred feet across the gardens. Neighbor had to go thru 18 feet between his house and machine shed where his bubcat is parked! -- took him a while to get to the road, then he came down and cleaned my drive out while I was shoveling from the house to the drive. got the explorer dug out and warmed up so I can go to doctor appt Monday for neck problems, AGAIN! --Left hip on Friday. never ending problems in the winter!

A .30/06 drops them like a sack of hammers too!
