The 3V 10 had very close to the same numbers the lightnings had, without the blower. Plenty of Torque, liked the fuel, but who purchases a v10 equipped truck for it's economy lol.

This is the one that went just below and missed us, but hit the Southeast towns. Glad we missed this one.

Nope. Nothing but stars in the sky.

It's suppose to snow for another 3 to 4 hours.... already has dumped 3 inches. My back is out.... I pulled a muscle during the last storm - with the snowblower. I bent over to turn the chute, and when I got back up I pulled a muscle. The Wife went out and ran the snowblower and cleaned off my truck tonight, but it's coming down pretty good still. I'll hafta do it again in the morning..... if I go in.

A lot of people are B&M'n about the snow around here. I'm all for more snow. I hope we get a lot more. That fire we had last summer depleted a lot of water out of our main water source in this valley. It really needs to fill up.

EDIT: The reason why we're so short on water.....

Borrowing from the reservoir, pretty much have to and definitely for good reason.. They did say the water would be replaced, imported. What they didn't say is when that's going start. They should be trucking it in now and replenishing, specially if there is a shortage and others rely on that water. Sounds like there's is a good reason for it on both sides. Can only rob so much from the kitty. That would be my question, 'when do we get it back ? '

Caught the road report out there , 15 semi spin-out , interstate closed...unless that's old news.

Just a twisted the wrong way kinda pull white, those suck, can take up to two freekin weeks to heal. I hate it when have to walk funny for awhile, in fear of re-injuring. Hope it's not serious, doesn't keep you down too long.

Yep... lots of spin-outs this morning too. Had one slow me down a bit on the way in to work this morning. It was a Honda..... they are the worst snow drivers. Used to be the VW Jetta drivers, but man do these Civic drivers suck.

AK, don't you just cringe at some of the FB advice that is given? The one about cats is just killing me. I shall refrain from jumping in..... I've said my peace before.


From the F150 winter Chronicles comes a view from the I-80 on-ramp this morning.....
