Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.
We are to hit 60 by next week, I hope so maybe I can get out of the house. Getting a bit of cabin feaver

Okay, we got 4 to 8 inches of snow. Then it abruptly changed to rain creating a heavy, hard packed slippery slushy snow. Cleanup was rough. The 7hp snow thrower could barely handle this heavy stuff and the chute kept getting clogged causing the machine to conk out,. I had to clear the chute and restart close to a dozen times just to get the place plowed out. Now comes the groovy part. When it gets down below freezing and all that nice stuff and rain glazes over to form nice slippery ice.
BTW I refer to these types of storms as "Verge Storms" because they are constantly on the verge of snow, sleet, rain. Earlier this winter we got true snow storms... nice light white flaky snow. Easy to clear. This stuff we are getting now sucks.
I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
Hah Hah... we even had a bit of a THUNDERSTORM this evening. Now we are back to wind and snow...

One more bit of proof the old reliable snow shovel is best and always works where these newfangled contraptions that only work in dry powder piss you off.

Tomorrow storm 21 or so since December, rain 10 C and 65 to 70+ miles per hour wind, wind dying down tomorrow night 1/2 inch rain expected.
Rest of the week calmer and less windy temps around 8 to 10 C.

It's been a relatively quiet year as far as our legendary coastal gales go, now I know where they got off to. Since you're seeing so many I wouldn't be surprised you see this one.
