Okay, so the Groundhog says 6 more weeks of winter. Would it have made any difference what he was supposed to say? Face it, we’re going to be getting another 6 weeks of winter with or with groundhog wisdom. In fact…today and tomorrow are going to be splendid days to get out and get things done, because starting Thursday things are not going to be so much fun. February is the worst of the worst as far as winter goes and in a couple of days it begins to prove that. Rain/snow beginning on Thursday and then I suspect we could end up with a goodly bunch of inches of snow by the weekend. And cold? Get ready to bundle up because by this same weekend the Arctic air is gong to invade our territory and it won’t be a stealth invasion. We’re definitely going to be feeling it. Personally, I’m going to use today and tomorrow to get out, stock up, and – except for having to venture out to feed the birds and critters – I fully intend to hibernate as much as possible for at least the next couple of weeks. Get ready for some dangerous cold temperatures. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
