I'll have to see how well these hold up. I made some T Handles for the adjustment bolts for my tire machine.

 

Why I always have a spare cat in the rucksack when hiking.



I would get to much crap from the old lady if I pushed one of the kids down.

 

Right, rather take my chances with the bear. Might get away with that playing dead vs the latter.

 

Hahahaha.... he snapped!

My sister just stopped by to show off her new Bronco Wildtrak.
I'll get better pics later this week.
She is having surgery and can't drive for a bit.
So, I'll be swapping moms Edge out with the Bronco and detailing it with a ceramic coating.

 

Never seen anything like that. It's 31* F, snowing like crazy, literally coming down in mini avalanche form, 4 - 5" of wet snow just in the last few hours and it's windy....calling for 6-10". Then out of seemingly nowhere it lightnings.... a very bright and strangely purple flash w/loud **** thunder right behind it. It was close, can't see out there very well at the moment, no transformers on fire and all the neighbors seem to have power... Yea, that was lightning....trippy!

 

Yep, Thunder Snow.
I have seen it 2-3 times in all the yrs. snow plowing.

 

I've heard thunder snow at least once in the past, wasn't to long ago actually. Nothing like this though, it was flash bang...a mean one. Might be a chunk of meteor sticking out of the ground in the morning.

One time deal , we only got one of those tonight.

 

The few times I've ever heard thundersnow, it was the same - one boom and done.

 

I remember as a kid in the 1983 winter which produced a lot of flooding, being outside in the dark shoveling with my Dad... and several times the entire sky would light up blue. This winter has actually been compared to that winter several times. A lot of us fear more flooding this spring/summer. If it heats up too fast, it'll happen for sure.
