John,
It looks like SW Virginia is awaiting arrival of that 'infamous' "Global Warming", isn't it?????
Personally, I think that somebody must have left the big freezer's doors open.

Yeah....somewhere there's a scientist that has the little known "global freezing your flipping **** off" theory waiting in the wings for release. If it's really warming, somebody forgot to tell the mountains and the weather here.

14 degrees right now, which isn't too bad, really.
9-14 inches of snow expected starting tonight and into tomorrow. That's going to really, really suck. Going to see if I can sneak out at lunch and fill up the gas can for the snowblower.

Bam, 2.89.
Fortunately, I get my gas at Sam's club, so while the gas station across the street is showing 2.89, I'm paying 2.70. Saves 5-6 bucks per fill up.

10°F here now, going down to -2°F with blowing snow tonight. Wind chills have been -5 to -7°F all day which means I have not set foot out of the house all day except to get more wood to throw in the furnace. It looks like I'm going to be making another wood run when (if??) it warms up.
If you look at the theories about the effects of polar melting - you'll discover a couple of scientists who suggested that we would actually experience these arctic blasts. I believe that it was claimed that the polar ice packs had a stabilizing effect on the jet stream or something along that line. I hesitate to remind y'all that we are way over due for some sort of mini ice age.
And on that note - I'm gonna run before y'all come after me with snow shovels, ice scrapers, and other pointy metallic objects.

Good morning!!!!!
It's 29° and cloudy, now. Winds from the NW at 4 mph. Windchill 25°.
We got 2" of snow last night.
Main roads are totally clear, but, the neighborhood streets are still snowcovered, so, the county's school administrator closed schools.

Yup Keith.....school's closed here as well. It's a whopping 9° outside now with 20 MPH winds. We only got about 3 inches of snow total but it's on top of the other snow from three weeks ago that hasn't melted off yet so it's drifting everywhere. It's been below freezing for about two and a half weeks now so I'm hoping that it kills off some of the bugs and junk.
