Prayers for Mid West

John Kissel · 02-15-2021, 08:07 PM

Prayers for all who are dealing with the terrible weather in the middle of our Country. I hope all of the ag. growers and those who raise cattle survive, maybe air drop hay to those out on the ranges.It's one thing to be where cold/bad weather is to be expected,but not down there, it is has been since '76/'77 since it was below 0 during the day here. Better days have to come as this year has been a disaster.

I hear you. Zero wind chill in SW La., the cows are calving and roads are refreezing. Not a problem if Laura would not have taken the barns. Just a real mess. ColdPhish

In west Kentucky temp is 0* and 8”of snow on top of almost a 1/4” of ice from freezing rain. Most roads are passable our road is a snow covered ice skating rink. The bright spot the sun is rising. And the heat quit in the office and shop, but we are ok and digging out. Y’all be safe and healthy.

It must be that damned "Global Warming".

Never thought I'd see it but on the same day in February my house in San Antonio TX and my place in WI looked the same - snow covered. Trying to get out of the driveway right now, over 10" last night. In WI I should add.

Global warming is causing the premature aging of my snowblower

Our weather guys are saying the polar vortex is supposed to stay up north. But with the warming of the air, massive amounts of warm air get on top of the polar vortex and push it off the area where its supposed to stay. This time the hot air pushed it south, right on top of us. Bad thing is its about to become much more commonplace. At least that's what he was saying ...
