Blizzard hits the Dairy Farm!

A very large storm system worked its way from Louisiana all the way to Minnesota and brought with it the perfect combination of warm air and moisture to make for one heck of a blizzard. We had 3 days of rain and snow and the aftermath was pretty crazy. Many towns near us lost power for over 3 days and counting for some. The rain and snow stuck to trees causing them to snap and sound like a gunshot. We were left with over a foot of snow to work around and the loss of power for a day. It's being called the Minnesota Blue Blizzard of 2022. We luckily came through pretty unscathed, but it's definitely one for the record books.

And then it was winter. Hopefully the colder temperatures will help freeze some of the moisture out of the snow and lighten the load on the trees. A little wind might help shake some of the snow off. Let's hope it doesn't get too crazy windy. I would be safe to assume there have been a few requests to take last years Christmas surprise for the kids out of hibernation. Take care and be safe.

Hey All, Just want to let you know Christmas Morning here in Ocala Florida we are supposed to be 19 degrees. Looks like I will be braking ice off the Horses water tanks. We are located about 45 minutes south of Gainesville Florida or roughly 90 miles North West of Orlando. Don't ever think that it Does Not get cold here in Florida and Yes it does snow too. I have seen it. Of course if you live in South Florida, You have to be careful because the Iguana's get frozen and fall out of the trees and such, No Lie... look it up, They put out Falling Iguana Alerts. Enjoyed your video, Thanks for sharing. And NO, I Do Not Miss The Snow... Love the cold.

North Central WI is about the same situation . Sounds like a lot more trees are doomed, as a lot more snow in the forecast with no above freezing temps. Also winds up in the 40 mph Friday I believe. The snow will sit right on the trees that are bent over. Birch are the worse off.
