Old Man (Winter) to Lay Area Wide Smack Down
Well, it's already been a cold and long Winter and we're not to Christmas. Not a good thing. Three plowable snowfalls and temps "ass cold" (January/February-like.) Tonight we're in the mix for a blizzard, biggest since, you guessed it Halloween 1991. Followed by an arctic blast, you know good ole "check-on-your-neighbors" cold. Some say Sunday's high of - 3 is punishment by the Norse Gods upset with our military's "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy.
Today was the calm before the storm.
And today was the storm.

Woke up early. It's a 'coming down. WCCO is apparently doing 5 hours of coverage . . . 5 hours of a snowstorm. I'm making popcorn.

Ahhhh, the Great Halloween Snow Storm of '91. One of my fondest memories of high school. Mostly because of being stuck at a friend's house whose parents got stuck somewhere else, with about 20 other kids. Great party, with no school the next day, of course.

That Halloween storm rocked. I will not recap what it meant to the Blake Bears football team as I am sure you guys have heard it more times than you care to count. On the snow day though, the SW MPLS branch of the Blake school got together for some good old fashioned sledding at Newton hill, 51st and Newton. I think Jan broke out the cross country skiis to get over there.
