For those of you city folk that have never gone trudging through a blizzard, you have a beautiful opportunity today.

You can have a real Lt Dan moment, screaming into the wind.

Feel nature’s power, go beyond shoveling and snowblowers.

Go to nature. And be humbled by it.

4 inches, 6 inches, 10 inches is still a fuckton of snow in March to me. And also the storm clearly heard me telling everyone to prepare and went somewhere where people were less prepared. One thing we are not gonna do is blame Matt!

Also it's March and it's going to be in the 40s in a few days. It's goofy.

This is a long duration storm. Most of the snow falls tonight through Sunday morning. Wake up, be lazy, enjoy coffee and family time, then go shovel once.

Shovel again before dinner, and probably once more before work Monday.

Break up a foot (ish) of snow into chunks. Your back will be happier.

Photo of Girl Scout cookie boxes, one of each kind.
Blue bag: Gluten Free Chocolate Chip
Yellow package: Lemonades
Red package: Peanut Butter Patties
Purple package: Carmel Delites
Tan package: Adventurefuls 
Pink box: Exploremores
Blue box: Trefoils 
Orange box: Peanut Butter Sandwiches
Green box: Thin Mints

Two weeks left in the cookie season and my daughter is SO CLOSE to smashing her goal of 300 boxes sold. Message me if you'd like to order - we can deliver locally in Minneapolis and I could probably be convinced to drive to St. Paul/inner suburbs if necessary.

Wait, post-Halloween Blizzard, there was ANOTHER giant storm over Thanksgiving? 8 year old me apparently chose not to remember that. Crazy amounts of snow.

...POWERFUL WINTER STORM ON TRACK TO BRING EXTREME SNOW ACCUMULATIONS
AND STRONG WINDS...
...A WINTRY MIX OF RAIN, FREEZING RAIN, AND SLEET LATE TONIGHT ACROSS
SOUTHERN MINNESOTA...
...TRAVEL MAY BECOME IMPOSSIBLE LATE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY...

.A major winter storm will move across the Upper Midwest starting
late this afternoon and lasting through Sunday evening.

The first concern is heavy snow with a broad area of 12 to 18 inches
expected across central Minnesota and western Wisconsin. A narrow
swath within the broader area may approach 2 feet in parts of far
east central Minnesota and west central Wisconsin. Rates of 2 to 2.5
inches per hour are likely late tonight. A wintry mix of rain,
freezing rain, and sleet is now expected to work north into southern
Minnesota tonight. A half inch of sleet and a tenth of an inch of ice
are expected from New Ulm to Red Wing and south. The wintry mix will
turn to all snow Sunday morning.

The second concern is increasing winds on Sunday. Even though the
snow will be tapering off gradually throughout Sunday, northwest
winds will increase to 30 to 40 mph. Some gusts of 50 to 55 mph are
possible. The combination of falling snow, blowing snow, and gusty
winds will reduce visibility and create blizzard conditions late
Sunday morning through Sunday evening across western and southern
Minnesota.

Travel is expected to become very difficult or impossible late
tonight through Sunday evening. In addition, the amount of water in
the snowpack will make it very heavy, leading to the potential for
infrastructure damage and a health hazard for those shoveling.

* WHAT...Heavy snow and blowing snow expected. Total snow
accumulations between 15 and 20 inches, with locally higher amounts
possible. Winds gusting as high as 40 mph.

* WHERE...Barron, Polk, Rusk, Chippewa, Dunn, Eau Claire, Pepin,
Pierce, and St. Croix Counties.

* WHEN...From 7 PM this evening to 7 AM CDT Monday.

* IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult to impossible. Widespread
blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous
conditions will impact the Monday morning commute. Gusty winds
could bring down tree branches.

🚨🚨🚨 Winter Storm Warning issued March 14 at 6:12AM CDT until March 15 at 10:00AM CDT by NWS Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN 🚨🚨🚨
Additional Details Here.(3/3)

So what could possibly go wrong with a Friday the 13th snow forecast?
Potential bust scenario for MSP is more northward shift & ice mixing in to reduce snowfall south.
Latest HRRR 18Z run here.
In this scenario heavy snow from N Twin Cities northward.
This thing is not set in stone just yet.

Images of an old silver 1999 Toyota Corolla for sale You want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that's hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further.
The 1999 Toyota Corolla.
Let's talk about features.
Bluetooth: nope
Sunroof: nope
Fancy wheels: nope
Rear view camera: nope...but it's got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn.
Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End.
You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up.
This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children.
Things this car is old enough to do:
Vote: yes Consent to sex: yes
Rent a car: it IS a car
This car's got history. It's seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It's not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would.
Interesting facts:
This car's exterior color is gray, but it's interior color is grey.
In the owner's manual, oil is listed as "optional."
When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla
You wanna know more? Great, I had my car fill out a Facebook survey.
Favorite food: spaghetti
Favorite tv show: Alf
Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms
This car is as practical as a Roth IRA. It's as middle-of-the- When I ran the CarFax for this car, I got back a single piece of paper that said, "It's a Corolla, It's fine."
Let's face the facts, this car isn't going to win any beauty contests, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn't the car you want, it's the car you deserve: The fucking 1999 Toyota Corolla.

Google map of cars location

Never forget: 8 years ago a random person on Craigslist wrote the most effective ad for the Toyota Corolla, ever.
