No winter yet here- what about where you are?

And the long term forecast has us freaking cold through next week! I had heard from a forecaster that this was supposed to be a warmer than usual winter for us.

Oh well, forecasting is still more statistics than science.

BRRRRRRRR

The old kerosene heater died Tuesday night. The mechanism that raises and lower the wick broke and the wick can't even get fed from the tank.

I bough a new one last night and I'm still trying to break it in.

I've got my radiating heaters on too.

Supposed to be 12 degrees here tonight. It is truly winter. Put out our last leaf bags for the season, it's not that the oaks have finished dropping leaves, but the city stops picking up "yard waste" after this week until spring. The oaks drop a few leaves at a time all winter.

We had a lot of snow for the area on Wed. (between 10 and 30 cm - did not happen for many years); As usual, it was a giant mess, all cars were stuck and people slept at work, in cars, etc... It's always the same here, people do not pay attention to recommendations and think they can behave as if it was summer, then they are stuck with a few centimeters and they rant when they don't have assistance in the next minute

Must be the same snow than went to Germany the next day.

It was beautiful to see a lot of snow here, and gave a holiday feeling We made a snowman.

It's been cold mainly and we got a little less than an inch on Friday here in Mid-Michigan. I know Grand Rapids/West Michigan got a lot of that lake effect this past week.

We're forecasted to get a lot of snow tonight and tomorrow, but we'll see.
