Good Morning/Weather Report Suite

[sandhill larry]

It's expected to snow some tonight and the temps are dropping towards zero F.

The hot tub is ready and standing by!

Have you got a roof over the tub? The snow might cool off your water.

Oh, hell no! Sitting in a bubbly puddle of hot water while the snow falls around you is magical. On clear nights it's lovely to gaze at the moon, stars and planets in the crisp, clear winter air. There's a tub cover for when it's not in use, of course.

They keep pushing it back: snow and freezing rain tonight into tomorrow.

Nah. Sitting in my hot tub would suck there- and my beer would warm up too fast.

Lol, I tried! But the truth is that I'd love to come check it out.

Don't I wish! I'm in for a minor shitstorm: 2" - 3" of snow tomorrow morning, followed by a couple of hours of freezing rain. But hey, I probably won't have to go in to work until much later; if at all!

It's already snowed 5" here and tonight's low will be between 5 and 10 below zero, depending.

Your linoleum putting greens will be ready in the morning.

Methinks you could get a tee time pretty much whenever you want.

And it's -10F right now. Thank goodness the forecast calls for a warming trend.

The crappy weather is just for today. This weekend looks like the usual: rain, highs in the high 40s and lows in the low 40s. Do you know about Trip Check, @eddy600 ? It's ODOT's travel/info/weather page. It could be helpful for the Southern Oregon/Siskiyou pass info.

Well it's gotta happen sometime. It's nice that it doesn't drop below zero and then stay there for a week straight like it did when I was a kid. It fucking sucked riding my bike to school in weather like that.

The bald tires were on my '79 Datsun 280Z, lol They made winter driving fun!

It was fun but not quick. The hatchback allowed me to carry more than one might think, but nothing like a proper car. Mine only gave me 16mpg.
