     My outside thermometer says it's 29 degrees here . Our "weather event"   
   is scheduled to begin around midnight , quantity deposited predictions   
   vary but it really doesn't matter . I got nowhere to be until next   
   Wednesday when the Old Men Discussing Politics Breakfast Club meets . By   
   then the county may get to our little dirt road ... or not , so we will   
   take care of it .   
      Our coldest prediction is for 2° overnight Sunday . I've got a remote   
   reading thermometer under the house , set to alarm at 33° . Got a space   
   heater on standby , I ain't a fan of replacing busted pipes .
