I was just checking the South Carolina news, because we bought our retirement property there back in the spring. California has crazy rain, and South Carolina had an earthquake this afternoon!

I'm sure that UncleWede would be laughing at a magnitude 3.3 earthquake being the lead story in all of the news outlets down there, just like we on the east coast laugh at him for wanting to declare a state of emergency when a rain shower falls on southern California.

On my next trip down there, I wanted to put up a remote weather station on our lot. Now, I'm thinking that a seismograph might be more useful.

Winter weather advisory here in the chilly northeast, with an inch of snow and some ice glazing forecast overnight.....

Wise decision. Even with mandatory winter tires, this happened once or twice a season;

Still raining here on the central coast of California.

Meanwhile, the Sierra mountain villages in northern California are snowed in and some without power.

We made the list also today for some of the coldest places on earth lol.
Yup I'm currently in Calgary and it has been cold this week and last week was pretty chilly too. Tomorrow should be better, hoping to go skiing with the family. Flying back on the Sunday.
