Not really enough to need the blower, but it needed to be run so why not. That got 4 inches of snow out of the drive

My blower is about 15 years old now. Two years ago i had to change the carburetor. I was going to rebuild it, but it was actually cheaper just to replace it. It runs like a top

Clear sky but -4°C here last night and freezing fog this morning.

Fingers crossed it cheers up by the time the Moon gets to last quarter.

Hi Mike.
It has been clear skies all night here in southern Ohio allowing the temps to drop to around 10 degrees F with wind chills of around zero. I bet you are even colder up in northern Ohio. Probably going to be tough getting in your truck heading to work.
I feel for ya.

At this very moment it is 6 degrees with a reaf feel of -2f. Remote start is a beautiful thing. The heater kicks on, the heated seate and steering wheel kick on and by the time i get out there it is warming up nicely. Now the walk from the house to the truck.... Brrrrrr

COLD COLD COLD !!! One degree F here this morning at Ritchey Park . Beautiful skies.
The sun is rising over the river and the moon is headed down in the west.
I noticed the bird feeder was empty. Not a bird in sight.
The snow crunched as I walked out to fill it.
Almost tripped several times as my boots broke through the frozen surface.
The ice is trying to rip off the gutters.
The birds must have been waiting up in the trees. As soon as I got back inside they started flying in. Eat away birds!!
