Sunday

Tonight through tomorrow we're getting 5-8 inches of snow and we also are under
a blizzard warning. Yeah, I'm only 8-10 miles south of the Wisconsin state line, but
come on it's the middle of March. Oh yes, I forgot. It's going down to 7F tomorrow night.
Sorry to whine, but I am so done with winter. On the plus side I haven't put the snow
blower away yet.
