Well back to winter. It has been snowing in NC since last night. On TV they are showing plows, covered roads, etc all over. But for some reason not a flake here at my house. Its 11am so we will see what the rest of the day brings. You having fun William?

Fern, I figured y'all would be covered up by now. 2:30pm here in Wilmington and just got our first snowflakes. Semi fat ones and the future radar forecast shows it increasing from here on through the evening. Hopefully before sundown, we'll have enough to make a snowball and throw at the wife. LOL. Mom n Pops house in Jacksonville has a fairly impressive covering on the ground already, according to my cameras.

Well it started at noon and was still snowing at midnight. I have 11in on my back deck this morning. Being in the country means our road will probably get plowed in a week or so. You ok William?

All good over here. Areas all around us got it far more than we did. Measured roughly 10 inches with the tape. Just got home from taking wife & daughter for a snowseeing trip to the beach. Pretty uneventful for it being a "historical" snowfall here. Hope y'all thaw out soon enough. Friend in my old neighborhood in Jax says they got 14 inches. Cameras at mom-n-pops house look pretty impressive.

Decided to try to get to the road. I don't own a 4 wd vehicle so I decided to try the Smart car since the engine is in the back over the drive wheels. My driveway is 600ft long or so and that thing never spun a wheel pushing snow all the way. Pretty impressive. I got back in but the main road is still covered. Will try that later.

Y'all be safe in all that stupid white stuff. Ours is about to go away this week. Getting some 50s and 60s during the day. Was single digits last Saturday morning.

1 degree here this morning at 7. I just came back from town and the road was awful. Took an hour to go 12mi in but it was a little better coming back. Still pretty bad.

Got to 70 yesterday… Sorry guys.. Spring is coming!

Not much off season here in central florida. Missed IRR double, next was rain/froze out. We running this weekend at Bradenton if all goes well.

We did have freezing temps a few nights recently. Nothing that an incandescent bulb between radiator and engine could not control woth cars covered. Birdbaths were skating rinks till 10 am.

Gas is $2.35 a gallon and I can race at a minimum of seven decent, to good tracks, within 125 miles of home. I'll accept the inconvenient weather.

Have your weather utopia, except for the earthquakes, mud slides, and wildfires, and drought, and,..........

How are you doing Dave?

How are you??

Yes it’s shaking right now. Chuck Rayburn lives in Castro Valley and he’s getting them weekly. That’s an hour from here so it’s just a bump here.

Utopia? Lmao that’s funny!

As it says Dave; Raceless in Ca!
My only hope is Trump steps on Newsome’s dyick! The we can get to reality here..

Ground isn't shaking here (Earthquake) always good news, and the temp was 82 at our house today (Tuesday Feb.3rd). Gas is hanging around $4.87 to $4.90 but our electric bill is substantially higher than last year. Even with 26 solar panels and lots of sunshine it's $124. Our daughters bill (Oakley, Ca) last month was $890 (No solar).

Stay warm and dry everyone and watch out for the ice patches, especially on the bridges.

Going to Barona Friday and Saturday to get some data on the new engine combination, hope to get between 6 to 9 runs. Weather forecast is in the mid 70's. Our full season starts on February 21 and 22nd.

My Tuesday surgery got bumped for a transplant operation, so we're re-staged for Friday morning, Lord willing.
Thanks for asking!
