Genuine, not sissy warm , winter seems to have finally arrived.
If the weather service is not a load of bollocks, in two days we should have at least eight straight days with night time temps sub-zero and two days with sub-zero high.
When Sharon's car gets out of the body shop I will have to drive home and plug a hole in my cellar to make sure a pipe does not freeze.
I have a pile of frozen leaves outside blocking the hole along with a board but just want to make sure.
My water at home, the cold water is cold enough to make your teeth ache, and that is now when temps are above zero.
Thank God there is snow covering the ground but I wish it were three feet deep and not three inches.
The fact it is literally frozen because it mixed with rain is now a true benefit.
Forecast low is -23 and as the old saying goes -- rim shot -- we've had worse.
