… Minnesota Weather Update: It hasn’t snowed in over a week now. The lawn service guys were out doing their preliminary spring cleanup, which is usually a sign that it’s not going to snow anymore. We’ve finally had weather warm enough again to open the windows, but it was raining so I still couldn’t open the windows. Unless I want rain in my house and we have enough problems with water pouring in where it…
We had a record breaking four days straight of eighty-some degree weather. Today it’s forty degrees colder with rain and tomorrow we’re supposed to get anywhere between two and six inches of snow. We’ve been under a Red Flag fire weather watch for most of the week, but I think that has been negated for the time being with this rain. Every river in the area is under a flood warning as they are rapidly…
Road construction started on our access road on Monday. So far it looks like they’ve just demolished the retaining wall marking the property line between our development and city property. Our house has felt a fair amount of shaking and vibrating from it. I can’t imagine what it’s like for the houses that are right next to it. ECH.

But it’s too warm for it to accumulate, so at least there’s that. … The giant, messy, two-plus-year road construction project outside our front door has picked up again for the season and they’re going to start tearing out…
April. We ended up getting somewhere around six inches of snow. Which is really just a guess by looking at the footprints in our driveway from the snow removal guys who walked through it. I didn’t go out there with a ruler or anything. (It also upgraded us to the third snowiest winter on record.) They came through Saturday afternoon and shoveled the snow off the front steps and away from garage doors (because the…
Last night when we went to bed there was thunder and lightning and pouring rain. Around dinner time tonight it started doing the same thing. Within an hour or so… Last I saw they’re predicting anywhere between four and ten inches around the Metro area. Guess March is going out like a lion this year. We’re supposed to finally hit fifty degrees next week, so however much we do get isn’t going to last, but…
