Winter storm

[Merlin]

Looks like this one's gonna hit a lot of folks. Bout time we got some snow round here, it's been like spring for the most part this winter. Went to the local Walmart tonight to stock up on some stuff in case we get snowed in, and also to make Stan Kroenke's wife wealthier to feed future Rams domination, and it was a goddamn madhouse.

the storm is suppose to go south of us , which I'm totally fine with me

however !!

we're in for some brutal cold

tonights air temperature is supppose to get down to -19 below , with the wind chill at a minus -40 to -50 below

suppose to be that way all weekend , with a little moderation next week , for the next 10 ten days , we won't get out of the single digits for highs

and to make matters worse , now their saying , there is a possibility for exploding trees , yes , apparently thats a things , so now when I got to bed , when it's this cold out , I already have like 96 things to worry about , but now I have 97 things to worry about , will it get so cold the trees in my front yard will just explode

Hitting my area. Won't be able to watch at my folks' house, so I'll try and hop on a stream here and hope for the best.

I lived in Maine for a few years and bought a good sized property. First winter when the cold hit I had a pine tree explode, scared the shit out of me. Every spring I had to clear out the exploded trees. Never even heard of that shit prior.

It is from the sap freezing. So usually the smaller ones.

Yeah, it's gonna suck. If I didn't have several small dogs I would hardly care but the mixture of negative temperatures and a ton of snow makes it just a constant fight to get them to do business outside. And it's going to snow from like mid saturday to late afternoon sunday. So have to get all dressed up every time to not lose some fingers to frostbite and go clear a damn spot in yard only to watch them stare at me after 5 seconds and start lifting their feet because their already getting frostbit. So frustrating lol.

I have a regular size dog and it's the same shit.

Dude stands on the porch like "are you sure I can't just piss up here?"
