And just like that...i got a weather alert that snow is expected in the next few hours. Wasn't supposed to snow tonight or this week.
Hey...maybe I WILL finally get a White Christmas for the first time ever. Only took 46 years! 🤣

Snow from Thursday is still on the ground, but it hasn't snowed any more yet. There isn't snow in the forecast, but as I've documented, that absolutely doesn't matter.

Welp...a 24+ hours constant snow fall resulted in the most snow ive ever experienced. I'm sure that will be wiped out in a month or so. Oddly, I wouldn't consider it "cold". How does that work?

I’m a gun owner, and I respect the rights of responsible gun owners. That said, the second amendment will continue to be watered with the blood of children until the laws change.

Documenting my first winter in Wisconsin wasn't supposed to include a school shooting a few miles from my home. I went through so many of these in Texas, but this one HURTS. I mean, HURTS.

So...seriously...HOW does the snow work here? ISTG, the radar is clear and it snows or the forecast calls for snow and nothing or it snows when it's 35°.
Like, at this point, just throw out the forecasts and say, "Yeah, it's Wisconsin. Have fun out there!"

Documenting my first winter in Wisconsin:
Yesterday, I reached my coldest temperature yet. It was 0°. Yes, ZERO DEGREES...until 10:00am!
I've learned that my Isotoner gloves are not intended for 0°. I've also learned that my knee-high Chinese Laundry boots are not intended for snow.

Yet another day in the Frozen Tundra and a new thing I learned: temperature doesn't matter. It's 30° today, but feels like it's 9°. It feels colder than it did two days ago when it was in the teens. This is the "warmest" day this week so far, but NOW it's supposed to snow?!? Make it make sense!

Me (a year ago): "OMG! IT'S 35°! I'M FREEZING TO DEATH!"
Me (last night, watching the Bills snow-covered game): "What? It's *only* 29° there?!?
What a difference a year and a few thousand miles makes.

Also, over the weekend, it got down to 11°, which is officially the coldest I've ever experienced.
I'm told we haven't hit the "bad part" of winter yet.
Yay.

As I continue to document my first winter in Wisconsin...MAKEUP.
Seriously, what is the point when it's this cold? I mean, there's another day of it snowing when there was no snow in the forecast, but it's so cold that I have to totally wrap my face in SOMETHING, so any makeup would get rubbed off.

I’m happy for the Biden family. This has been a long and undeserved nightmare. May they find peace these holidays.

"Way to go, Joe!" Says Rep Jasmine Crockett about the pardon of Hunter Biden. "We have a 34 count convicted felon that's about to walk into the WH. So for anyone who wants to clutch their pearls now, I would say take a look in the mirror."

Forgive me if this is petty but the next account I’d like to surpass here on Bluesky is CNN.
They helped normalize Trump at every turn and did nothing to help tell the truth about Kamala. Time to show them what we think.
Can you RT this and follow us if you haven’t. 💙🙏

It's currently 15° here. That's officially the coldest temperature I've ever experienced in person. However, I wrapped myself up so much that I was sweating when I got back inside from walking the dog, so I guess that's another thing I have to learn: proper, quick layering.

So...first winter in Wisconsin: it's currently 18°, which is the coldest temperature I've ever experienced by 1°

A failed president who incited a coup attempt and then was found liable of sexual assault and then was convicted of felonies won the popular vote and electoral college. I still haven’t seen a satisfactory explanation. Probably never will.

I’m starting to think that the longer we shield Trump voters from the worst economic outcomes, the worse things actually will get.
Sometimes people just have to find out the hard way, sad as that is. Yes, we will suffer. But at least they will learn that elections do have consequences.
