Thursday it was -40 in Laramie.

I chuckled.

Nice move.  :D

Lots of flooding. There was a 200% snow pack this week and now it's raining. The Governor is doing interviews in downtown Reno under an umbrella.  :P

Winter here is mid-50s and rain.  The palm trees are sad when it is clear, it gets down to the 40s overnight then, but luckily it rises close to the mid 50s by lunch.

So this weekend it was down to 20F/-7C with a strong wind. By Wednesday it will be up to 80F/27C. Texas winter man. Keep your summer clothes available.

I will always remember that morning in the 90s where I came to drive to work on a warm morning in my shorts and T-Shirt but first had to scrap the ice off my car.

Yay! A thunderstorm is moving through. So, according to the shitshow that is my life now, it'll knock power out for a week.

It has rained about 6 inches here so far this month - about 18 inches in the coastal mountains.  The Sierra have been pummeled - Snow, rain, blizzard in that order.  Last night it snowed 48 inches outside of South Lake Tahoe.  They are flooding the emergency areas north of Sacramento now, too much too soon for the resevoirs.

At least the snowpack is above normal for this time of year.  I am in California now, I watch the water level.

Speaking of the Sierras, you know if they still have the signs up on the Interstate that says "Truckers, cool your jets!"  :lol:

It's-24c tonight. Power just went off throughout our whole neighbourhood.

Will the power come back before our house becomes too cold to stay in? Check in tomorrow morning to find out!

Amen to that.  My condo has a weird natural gas system, but at least when I lose power, I have heat and hot water.
