36 degrees and rain.

19 here with snow and strong winds. Looks like nights around 0 degrees this week.
-
0 deg F here this morning with 30mph winds. Our first taste of winter this year.
-
Hope it comes this way.

10 with snow showers off and on. Going down to 0 tonight. Nice a cozy inside at 72 with a pair of shorts on 8) 8) 8) 8)

Winter finally arrived here. -18 last night, -18 forcasted for tonight. Never got above zero today. Looks like subzero lows til the end of the week. Should finally be getting some good ice on the lakes

It was 19 F this afternoon. My niece and I took a cpl class and had to spend about 2 hours outside shooting. Neither one of us anticipated the 45 mph wind gusts, but we managed to get through it. Hardest part was trying to fill a 9mm magazine multiple times with frozen fingers (yeah, her favorite uncle filled hers for her too!). We both easily got our certificates. She's only 5'1", 100 lbs, and she handily out-shot her uncle! :thumbup:

same weather here as well some drifting and snow has slowed to flurries, started out this morning well above freezing and mostly rain but now is at 19F as well

7 right now with a low 5. Wish it would have stayed froze, chewed up ground that refreezes is hell on the beef herds feet.

That sucks big time, never thought of that when coming to farming. Can you scrape it with a dozer or bucket on a tractor?

I’m gonna try with the skid steer once it firms up more, was still slop late today. If not wit the skid steer then I’ll wait a bit longer till it really freezes up and use the box scraper on a tractor. Just will do the lane though, they are on 32 acres of winter pasture now and ain’t about to cover all that with a 7’ box scraper or skid steer. If it freezes good and hard then we get enough snow that’ll pack down enough to help em out. Even harder on horse’s since they have solid hoofs instead of a split hoof like a cow.

Just get a D9 Dozer.. Piece of cake..

LOL, don’t think the lane is that wide

Hi Coolidge, it's a little different today than whe you posted the other day isn't it? I've got 14 and wind chill of -5
-
Yes it is, about time, now if the ground will freeze we can get backin the woods.

Another thing that sucks, Saturday when it was still in the low 40’s and trying to rain, we ran 13 cows thru the working shoot and gave them a shot of a long acting antibiotic for pneumonia. The last 2 or 3 winters when everything was pretty much froze solid well before Christmas and stayed that way till spring we gave zero shots for pneumonia. Just the joys of having “free” beef for the freezer.
