This weekend, the meteorologists are predicting the apocalypse. I guess we're going to get hit with sub-zero temps along with a warm air mass that will start as snow, move to sleet, then freezing rain, potential collapses of substandard roofs, carports, and trees as 1-3 inches of ice accumulate, power-outages from downed lines, then immediately followed up with the warm air mass pushing out the cold, and a deluge of rain on top of all the accumulated snow and ice, resulting in a expected flooding of the valley's low spots.
Oh yea... But you know what?
I've got 4 months of food in the pantry, 8 days of water, and enough gas that my Yamaha generator capable of producing a sustained 3000 watts will last for 72 hours with no breaks to run the heaters, the TV and the Xbox. And if that goes south, there's propane to last another week.
My house is 2x6 construction built on a high spot. Bring it on, Mother Nature. Bring it on.
We'll probably get a spot of rain, and a few gutters will clog... our Metorologists are like Punxsutawney Phil. Flipping a coin is more accurate.
