Four Days of Precipitation Starting Today

We have a forecast of four days of rain turning to snow, then very cold temperatures on Monday and Tuesday-2 above Fahrenheit on Monday at some point.

I keep wondering how my ancestors managed this weather in the 1880s.

For those of you who read The Long Winter, I can only say this feels like one just beginning. Very interesting. We already have about six to seven inches on the ground here and more is piling up even now.

God bless the prairie lands.
