You must not of heard about the Saturday accumulating snow that's coming. Saturday evening into Sunday. Hope that's the last one. :( :( :( Heard about that this morning. :mad: Tired of it. Hate to see what we are in for this summer. Probably a bunch of grass growing rain, with sweltering heat, and get ate up with mosquitoes.

The snow has worked as a blanket for the ground. You could probably go out and remove the snow in your yard and find out the ground is not frozen even with the sub-zero temps.
Don't know if the bugs will be killed off with the snow protecting the ground. But then I don't know much about that sort of thing.


One good thing with the blanket of snow...if you have winter wheat in the ground it should be nice this year. Should be a lot of 60# test weight and a little better...........[If the heavy rain storms stay away until after July 10th.]

It makes sense noreply, you are probably right. An old mushroom hunters wise tale says, snow on the ground most of the winter will bring morels a plenty in spring/late spring. So I bet that wheat would be good as well. Your right about the long winter blanket of snow, it acts as an insulation barrier, protecting the ground from sub below/cold temps. Bugs will probably be in crazy population this spring and summer. Fleas on my outside cats will have to be treated more than once, just hoping they don't get too bad. That Revolution flea treatment could get expensive every 30 days for a 4 month period/120 days. :( :( :122248

Our snow all melted before the last sub zero temps. Had several days without any snow. The ground got froze pretty good. Just out of curiosity I took a spud bar and went down 15 inches without finding thawed ground, so I do not not know for sure how much deeper the frozen ground went. I do know that I can go to the sink and get a glass of water and I do not need any ice cubes due to the water being so cold in the water lines that are buried 4 feet deep.

Bob Nunley, channel 4 this morning snow Friday, Saturday into Sunday moun-un. Channel 10 has a 60% chance as well for Saturday. Don't pay no attention to that local on the 8's Bolt, only thing it's good for is the radar. It's saying a totally different thing than Timmy said today on there. Must need updated. Check it again off and on, it will change. I watch the WC a lot and I've noticed the local on the 8's future day forecast is different than what they say on there sometimes but they will change it. Must be on a delay. :lol: :lol: :lol: RK running that part of it. :lol: :lol: :lol:

You got that right. That local on the 8's is totally different than what Timmy said today. He said Snow all 3 days as channel 4 did this morning, per Bob Nunley. No heating up here, not up to it. I've been sick all day. Feel like $HIT. :(

Sounds like a nice one, I seen some of those has a head light for night blowing. Pretty cool stuff. I can't stand those craftsman lawn tractors though. My mom had one and I was changing belts all the time on that thing. Glad she got rid of it and bought a Troy Built. Hard to get those blades off though, to sharpen them, wasn't it Bolt? Glad you had that quality air wrench. Now that's why I like quality. That thing did the job in 2 seconds. See what I mean? :lol: :lol: :lol: My air tools I have are bottom of the line. Cheap and weak. Ready to give them away. Waste of money. Now my wallet will have to open twice Bolt to get the better ones someday. :lol: :lol: :lol: It's better to buy quality stuff the first time around. :aaaaa24 :aaaaa46 :aaaaa46 :aaaaa46 :aaaaa46

All no, :lol: :lol:, Timmy was saying that too, snow,fri/sat/into sun, on the WC. I caught Bob Nunley on this morning while I was up buying a buuuiccckk this morning, and he said accumulating snow Saturday evening into Sunday morning. Has RK updated the local on the 8's yet? :lol: That part of the WC seems to be behind most of the time. Like the radar though. 15 minutes behind though this winter. Ole Forbes will get it up to the second, when those vicious storms come rolling in, this spring/early summer. Winter radar must not be the top priority or the 8's, it seems to be delayed for some reason. RK must have a part time job there, :lol: :lol:, saving money for his curb water for this coming summer. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Send them an E-mail Bolt, ask them why that 8's are different than what their experts are saying. That radar is at least 15 minutes behind. I've been noticing that. People depend on that for their drive to work. I would e-mail them but ready to get off here, I feel like crap buddy, all day long, buying buuiiicccckkkkssss. :( :(

Still quality for the money, you must have gotten lucky again. 750 pound torque from china. Well they don't hardy get paid nothing in those plants over there. Dang near work for nothing. Able to sell stuff cheap. No labor cost hardly. But that thing did the job, I gotta have one of those. You should have gotten a full kit of those china air tools at that price, while you could. Pretty stout getting that blade bolt off of there. Still quality or it would have just set there like mine, with a dead vibrate. Walmart specials, where I got mine. :lol: :lol: :lol:
