Not a fit night out for man nor beast! - 1/1/21 ice storm.

My daughter is at a truck stop in Springfield.  A younger/new driver hit the nose of her truck while she was inside getting something to eat, broke the passenger side headlight/blinker and cracked the hood.  Her company sent her to a repair shop but the shop couldn't get replacement parts yesterday and didn't know if they'd be able to get them today.  I'm hoping they do and she can get back on the road.

North Central Arkansas here. We dodged the ice by just a few degrees.

Had a green Christmas up here.

currently, the temperature is around 33 degrees and there's only a dusting of snow. It falls, then we have a melt.

Unusual for up here, but we seem to be on the edge of the cold fronts coming down from the arctic.

It's usually around -20- or lower this time of year.

Steady rain and 31 here. Quarter inch or so of ice on everything. Power flickered a couple times. Good day to process more 5.56 brass. My goal is to have it all sized, trimmed, primer pockets fixed up and loaded by the end of January. I want February to be a .30 carbine month.

I love Aussies.  They are just like Americans with funny accents.  :D

Language is a bit more colorful and creative, but agree the accent also helps.

 

Surprised they don't accumulate more points here... maybe the accent and "color" of the dialect don't come out as much when writing sentences.

Well snowing here all night tonight and tomorrow, around 15 to 20 cm predicted.

I'll fire up the snow blower tomorrow morning after the street plow and the sidewalk plows fill the driveway.

Our power went out 2 1/2 hours ago.  2" of wet snow shorted the power grid or someone took out a power pole.  Turned off the main breaker at the house.  Fired up the LP fueled generator in my shop, back feeding power to the house.  Wife happy, happy life.

I have never figured that out. Every time you post something I don't hear or see any accent. You're not really an Aussie are you?:lol:
