Winter Storm On The Way

The word on the street is that a pretty powerful winter storm is headed our way.  I've heard several reports, but it looks like we'll see a couple inches of snow tonight and then it should change into ice and freezing rain.  The latest forecast I saw showed us getting more ice and the heavy snow going further to the north.  I guess we'll have to wait and see.  Last night the projected snowfall was 8 inches by Thursday, but the latest update of that projection only calls for four and a half inches by Thursday morning.  Either way it should be pretty interesting to see how it unfolds.  I'm ready for warm weather, but I am also a sucker for bad snowstorms.  I love them.  I think it's because for just a minute it slows everything down.  We really don't have any reason to be out on the roads anyway around here so I hope it comes in full force.  We've got a freezer full of meat and I've got hay and layer feed to get us through until it clears up so I kind of hope we get a pile of snow and ice dumped on us.  That's just me.  I know Becky and the kids will be doing the snow dance tonight in hopes of a day or two off of school.
