I had a 12 ft garage door stacked up in my barn loft….two panels blew off and landed on the hood of my dump truck. Scratched the hood and dented fender. Lots of trees down in my area. Anyone else have any damage from the artic blast?
 
Power out in several areas around here already. The cold and wind is just now arriving. I foresee lots of frozen pipes!
 
We will rebuild.

What you get for churching up a shitty old farm dump. It was meant to be the way it was.

That makes me want to club a baby seal with a baby seal, just looking at it.

Not sure what kind of imitation fat boy you've turned in to...
I went out this morning, about 8am, 20mph winds, 29 degrees, and loaded up a wheelbarrow of firewood, rolled it down to the shop, unloaded it and started a fire in the woodstove, rolled back to the house, took another wheelbarrow load of primo dry wood to the front porch for inside fireplace fire later today, then loaded another wheelbarrow full and rolled it into the basement. Gave my hands a lap around NC4x4 to warm up (about a minute, haha) by the woodstove, then headed back down to the shop. No hat, no gloves, just tennis shoes, jeans, a t-shirt, and a fleece the whole time. On the way back down to the shop, I stopped and stood outside in the wind for 2-3 minutes and literally said out loud "Man I love this weather!"

Couldn’t tell ya man…I hate this weather. Imma piss and moan until March. Taught myself some new curse words when I hopped out of the car at the office and the wind flung the door open and my ass wasn’t nice and heated anymore. It felt like Mother Nature was sending straight up haymakers…damp, cold and wind, just pissed me off. So for the next 3 months, I’ll be fixated on how badly I want to open a ‘financial services business’ somewhere down in the Caribbean, as long as this is what I have to deal with…it should be illegal for flags to fly straight when it’s below 60*.

Been a little breezy here, but the wind just started picking up. Temp was mild. It’s started dropping though. Check out this temp drop for the rest of the day.
