Oh Baby It’s Cold Outside! 

              

 

Right now it’s 4 degrees outside with a wind chill of minus 10.  We have a Blizzard Warning in effect. We are expecting 14 to 18 inches of snow.  The weatherman is saying we can expect Thunder Snow.  I’ve never heard of that before.

 

                   

                      

 

Blizzard Warning:  The most dangerous type of winter storm.  Snow and strong winds are combined which produce a blinding snow with visibility often near "zero".   Whiteout conditions, deep snowdrifts, and life threatening wind chills often accompany a blizzard.  You should seek refuge from the storm immediately, or not go outside!  In a blizzard, winds are 35 mph or greater and visibility reduced to less than 1/4 mile with snow and blowing snow.

                 

                Of course, last night after the psychiatrist Gary and I went into Pathmark.  We needed milk and bread.  It was like a madhouse in there.  There wasn’t a load of bread to be found.  Or so I thought.  I located one loaf.  One lone loaf of Arnold Brick Oven White Bread just waiting for LuAnne to snatch up and bring home.  After all a blizzard was coming.  We bought some comfort food.  Nothing we couldn’t do without.  But, it’s human nature to nest before a snowstorm.  We bought cookies, milk, frosting, coffee-mate vanilla cream for my coffee, farina, tuna for tuna casserole, grated cheese for pasta on Sunday.  Made sure I had laundry soap of course, Ivory soap for the shower.  Plus some other shopping necessities.  We will be held up in the house for like 2 days.  Not the weeks of winter hibernation of the Little House on the Prairie Days.  But it makes for nice comfort and family time.  There’s nothing wrong with that.
