Woke up yesterday to an icey fairy land outside with all the trees and bushes covered in ice. That lasted until about noon and then the ice started melting. This morning its a chilly 27 deg but temps expected to rise to the high 40s. I welcome the rise.

More snow this morning and throughout the day.

We have cold weather expected all through next week, highest temp is 31 for Tuesday and lowest is -14 for Wed. night. Snow forecast for today and Tuesday but only expecting about an inch or so from each snowfall.

We got about 5-6 inches of snow overnight. Cold temps around -10 degs Celsius.
Thank goodness for these modern day big-ass push shovels, I can get my driveway cleared in about 5 minutes time. By the time my neighbours fire up their snowblowers I am almost done. I don't even bother putting on my winter coat as I am out there for so little time. My father was always scared to shovel snow when he was alive fearing that it caused heart attacks. With the big push shovels there is almost no lifting needed. Even with Covid in my system it isn't very taxing work if you use the right technique.

Well Joey, My dad was out snow shoveling when he had his first recognized heart attack.
He died 3 weeks later at the ripe old age of 40. I am always a little extra aware when shoveling.
Normally, I fire up the snowblower.

I used to shovel a lot when I did property maintenance. My motto was slow and steady wins the race, in addition to having a heart attack doing it too quickly is a good way to get a back or leg injury.

The chamber of commerce at Lake Nona down in Florida are hosting a golf tournament this weekend.
I'm not sure they're getting the image they wanted. Players are putting their big fluffy down coats back on after taking their shot.
might be good for Buffalo. But not Florida.
