Mixed snow and ice Tuesday over night into Wednesday morning took out the power.
Our generator is a 5 KW, but it’s good to run a few lights, a small electric heater, the well and aerator pumps, and most importantly the Wifi modem.

Right now it’s 28 degrees outside and 63 degrees inside.
Another round of snow is forecast in the next couple of hours.

Remember - this is Florida.

Pensacola is known for beautiful white sand beaches. Me thinks the city counsel went a bit too far this time! 🤣

Low last night was 22, into the high 40's this afternoon. The regular scheduled programing has returned! 😁


That is about the same here for the last week and will be into next week........then we warm up and rain.


No snow here yet thank goodness

God was kind enough to commemorate the day after the 2025 Inauguration, by blanketing portions of the South in snow for the first time in over a Decade. Very Memorable !!! Whoohooo!!!

We are under a 'boil water' advisory.
Water pressure is down to about 10psi, meaning the stream from the faucet is about the diameter of a pencil. :oops:
It's been years since we had a hard freeze, and I forgot it happens when all the busted pipes thaw and start spraying water.
Well the 'thaw' happened down here today, and predictabley there are 107 municipal system joining us under a 'boil water' advisory. :rolleyes:
If their system drops below 20psi, they are required to issue one.:(

I wonder if my second home Pensacola had snow.
 
I wonder if my second home Pensacola had snow.
They did, got 8-10 inches. The east side of mobile bay got 10-12. Talked to my aunt a bit ago. Her daughter is nurse in Mobile, been stranded at work for 3 days... Don't know how the pay check will work out since she's sleeping some shifts. The problem is there are no beds, patients have them all filled. She's having to sleep in offices, cots, anywhere she can find a spot.
 
They're calling for above freezing temperatures by Monday afternoon. It's hard to say if we'll see temps that warm up here at our elevation. No snow is predicted until Friday the 31st.
 
Yes it did. A pretty good amount, too.
It was on the local TV channels.
https://weartv.com is just one. By tomorrow they will probably have moved on to other stories.
I don't see the story anymore. But that Hardee's Beach Cam is KICKIN'. I didn't know about that !!
I'll be drooling over that - - come Spring... when I'm still stuck at my desk typing. Another P-cola "wish you were here" type moment!
