Greetings, gang.
Cloudy and 10 degrees outside my window today. We just picked up about an inch of 20% chance with little or no accumulation. Forecast for the weekend into next week doesn't look good. The good folks at the NWS are predicting a quarter inch of ice before it changes over to sleet/snow/freezing rain. Various types of precipitation are expected from Sunday afternoon through Tuesday afternoon. One of the items I picked up while out and about this morning is a 50 lb bag of ice melt. There's ice on the sidewalk now that needs to be removed and more is (supposedly) on the way.
Of course the weather is turning nasty. One of the few things I did yesterday was get the car washed. At least I got the previous layer of gunk off before accumulating a new layer. Along with the aforementioned ice melt I picked up a kit to rebuild the toilet upstairs. I can't replace the toilet because of a counter that is directly above the tank which limits the height. The newer models are too tall. It should make a nice project for when the weather is bad.
Not much else to ramble on about.
All stay safe.
