Southwest Minneapolis weather report from East Harriet to Kingfield: overnight snow is manageable but it is very cold out. Pedestrians will struggle with unshoveled sidewalks, made worse by blowing snow overnight. Streets are fairly plowed and easily to navigate by vehicle. Bicyclists are tough.

I usually don’t post reports without someone riding on it first, but I figured just after a snowfall this would be helpful for some people. Be careful out there!

2 big guys in my tiny bathroom tiling my new shower. The tile saw sounds likes a dentist drill & makes me cringe. Then they say things like, "I need a D7 for this area," adding to the dental/doctor vibe. But then it gets ruined when John Denver starts singing Rocky Mountain High from their playlist.
