Cloudy with 13 1/2 inches of snow last night, which is the third most on record for one snowfall. The city of Lincoln was kind enough to leave a 4 foot drift in front of my driveway. No Spyder riding for a few weeks or until the snow melts. One positive note is that we really need the moisture.
Valley Springs AR: Well.......................................we got some snow overnight. About an inch of the light, fluffy stuff. It looks pretty and gives a different viewpoint of the surroundings.
It is already doing a slow melt (we have 35 degrees or so), the grass is showing through and getting more visible by the hour. Supposed to be 40's tomorrow, 50's and rain the next days.
Will be quickly gone. Thank you AR. So far, don't have to shovel it, (left the shovels and snow blower back in AK). We get a change of scenery for a short time, but that is about it.

Thanks for that - all happened as forecast, the early am wind change turned the fire back on itself; rain front followed it thru & knocked the worst of the spreading fire; a couple of houses & out-buildings were lost, but no lives lost or injuries so far.
The fire is still burning in heavy & inaccessible bush, but there's over 200 Firies out on the containment lines and they're bringing in the next wave of fire-bombers as I type, hoping to hit it hard. Sorta need to tho; thunderstorms & gale force winds heading our way tonight/early tomorrow, and it's gonna be stinking hot again within a day or so!!
What's the forecast for wildfire activity the rest of your summer? Is it going to be as bad as last year?

Our usual Wednesday ride is now postponed until tomorrow when it will be about 10 degrees warmer. My riding buddies are a bunch of wusses..... I know most of you would jump at the chance to ride in sunny 55 degree weather right now. Stay safe..... Jim

Tomorrow,we are getting a blast of cold weather, they are saying if you go outside, dress in layers, and be sure that the farm animals have adequate shelter. Keep your pets inside. Dangerous wind chills.
They are watching for a possible N' Or Easter on Monday into Tuesday.
The temps in the 20's and 30's next week.

Had a nice little ride yesterday. It got to 71 here in the desert S.W. It's now 64 and sunny at 10:30 AM. We are expecting a fast moving storm to pass through from the west this evening. That will make for a cooler but sunny Saturday. Then by Sunday we will be back into the 70s. Stay safe..... Jim

Good Sunday morning! Today is sunny and it is supposed to get to 70 degrees in the desert S.W. The temperature almost always climbs to a few degrees higher than forecast so I expect we will see 72 or 73. Getting ready to ride with some good friends. We'll decide where to go after we meet up. Stay safe..... Jim

Calm before the storm, today(Sunday Jan. 31,2021).
Starting on Monday afternoon, the snow will start falling, and will go until Wednesday. They are forecasting in the Southern part of Vermont 2 feet of snow, ( off topic excellent for snow mobile riders) back on topic, in my area they are forecasting 4- 8 inches of snow. ( off topic, excellent for the snow mobile riders, next week taking the sleds out for some exercise, hahahaha! ) back on topic, This storm will be a long duration which ends on Wednesday.
Then we get a break, on Thursday.
The next storm will be a messy storm, that one starts on Friday, this storm they are forecasting sleet, freezing rain, temps in the 40's.
Here in the Northeast we have had a very unusual kind of winter this year so far. Where I live we did not have our first snow fall until after Christmas, usually we have snow before Christmas.

We were able to get out today for a little ride of about 240 miles. Sunny but cool this morning, but turned to the 70's in the afternoon. Great day for riding in southern Arizona!
