      Overcast. Road bare. Flakes threaten ever so
      often. A covering of snow in most fields, but little.
      Wind is threatening like a turkey gobbler. Not
      cold, but chilly enough to kill any fat survivor
      cutworms. Could go for a walk in my runners.
      Super winter. Pars

          Sorry to here about your snow freewheat. I must live closer to Pars that you. When I look out my window I see grass and dirt. Which kinda freaks me out since the last time we had a winter like this was 2001. The following growing season was dominated by drought and grasshoppers. I remember harvesting a 7 bus/ac wheat field that year. Ugly.

            Every year I wait for that same kind of day. Bitter
            snappin' cold. Sun glaring bright, Not a breath of
            wind. Clear sky. Dead quiet. Door squeaks. Boots
            crunch. Bites your face. A day like that is in my
            genes. I do love it, you know. Pars

              Hey Coleville, not looking for sympathy, but thanks. it is just more proof we live in a very bizarre region of this province. We are in a little tiny piece of wet, cool, damp conditions. Consistently. Which can be a blessing, but often not. Our forecast is for two nights of -38 on wed. thurs. Highs of -31 I believe. Wouldn't be shocked if we were the only ones.

              This area makes hudson bay, sk look like the tropics! When SF3 talks of going to tahiti or wherever, I always wonder why he don't just go to Hudson bay! Then i remember he is from down south. I know now though, why John deere used to send up prototypes to try to get their machines to tackle the toughest harvest conditions on earth. Me thinks they were on to something. lol

              And pars, there is something strangely clean, glorious and awesome about a deep snowfall, especially once it gets to be -38 afterwards. Beautiful in a demented kind of way.

                One positive, it's a very fluffy dry 12".
                Not much water in it, we hope.
                Forecast says another 12" this week possible!
                Hope it just goes to the "brown" areas.

                      Hey Sask, where are you heading to? I hear Foam lake got a couple three inches. i am not sure how far north this goes, but it seems Saskatoon got 4-5 inches, and swan river about like us at 11-12 inches.

                      Breadwinner, what did you guys get?
