Seriously...ANOTHER "Snow" Day

What is happening?!?!  Yesterday it "warmed" up to like the 50's.  This morning it was 42 when I woke up.  By this afternoon it will drop 10+  degrees...WHAT?!?!  Overnight 22 degrees...with a 30% chance of snow.  I mean nothing "sticking" but JFC that's frigid!

Have I mentioned I live in the DEEP SOUTH?  Maybe once or twice...maybe I should say it LOUDER!  We get snow (flurries) every 10-15 years not THREE TIMES in two months.  WTF?!?

So yea tomorrow we are shutting down again because we can't function in the cold...obviously.

Then I saw this from yesterday, I think....(that pink area is in central LA right now)

Ummmmm.  That...is it just me....?
Its funny because we will have a layer of white stuff...right...right... Mother Nature about to...never mind....if I don't laugh I'll cry.

I'm going burrow under some blankets and snuggle with my dogs.

**UPDATE** there is now a 90% chance of snow...not snow showers...SNOW from 9PM-2AM...WTF?!?!?!

Send help - I've turned into a popsicle

So  Mother Nature decided we didn't have enough with the Snow and Ice a few weeks ago.  So she sent us a "Winter Weather Event".  Oooo sounds fun, who is headlining?

Right, so NOT fun.  Yo, I live in the DEEP SOUTH!  DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP South.  It is 28 f**king degrees outside and the sun is out.   But wait there's more.  There is a "windchill".  Usually that takes off a few degrees...
A few...a few... the "windchill" makes it feel like 18 in the sun....12 in the shade.  Pardon me...WHAT?!?!!?  Am I in the North...?  Where's the Nightwatch...are the Whitewalkers coming?
Yea yea yea it is WAY colder "up north" but that doesn't make my little Summer Loving self any happier!  I let the pups out to potty and there was steam.  Both looked confused and a bit concerned.  "Mom...MOM!  My butt is smoking...something has gone horribly wrong!"
So yea we took precautions.  I don't care what some people say.  You leave a faucet dripping...just dripping.  If you don't you may have an issue.  "But that decreases water pressure".  You know what else decreases water pressure...?  A BUSTED F**KING PIPE.  Leave a drip, wrap your exposed outside pipes and faucets, let the pets in, protect the plants...and just stay home if you can!

Then I saw this:

I already have on  fleece leggings, knee high thick @$$ socks, two shirts, a furry vest thing, a scarf, and a hat...I AM INSIDE!!! With the heater on....
When I went outside I had on that plus a leather jacket, leather boots, and leather gloves.  Its supposed to get colder tonight to tomorrow...
Next time I complain about the heat....someone slap me because this below freezing $hit....

Winter is here


And its freaking hilarious.  Y'all try not to make fun of us Southerners, we don't know how to function in Ice/Sleet/Snow. 


Apparently some polar vortex thing is dipping low low low low.


Sorry sorry sorry.  Back to my thought.  Okay soooooooo most of SE LA and S MS is going to get a blast of frigid air along with rain.  Which means Ice/Sleet/Snow mix...yay!  I'm staying f**k in!  People can't drive in normal weather much less ice. 


Yes we are shutting down like half the state.  Yes there is a "winter weather advisory".  Yes we are preparing for "snow".  Stop laughing!  We are lucky if it gets in the 50's for Christmas so getting anything resembling snow makes people panicky. 


Just kidding, I hate the FREEZING cold but I think the craziness for some possible snow if f**king funny.  I mean better safe than sorry but
