Weather in St. Louis Park

Remember Bud Kraehling?  He just passed away at age 96.  You may enjoy the information on Bud's life at WCCO TV that we all likely recall from the 1950s and 60s, at the following link:

 The snow flakes depicted above have started again in Minnesota, where we've had 12 days in a row below freezing, even before Thanksgiving!

So we can't stop "thinking snow," even in November!

Winter has arrived early here, so we'll keep the following poem here for the rest of the winter season:

A Winter Poem from the heart...

We get this poem out every winter and love rereading it.  It is succinct, but well written, and highly descriptive of reality in Minnesota, in winter; even in November.

 

A poem by Abigail Elizabeth McIntyre

 

Shit, it's cold!

The End

 

Sometimes the ice can be a little thin in December in Minnesota.

This happened to an ice fisherman the week of December 9, 2013 in the Alexandria area.

 

Cold Weather
The weathermen say the temperature is going to reach extremely low levels today, and everyone should check on the elderly and senile.
Are you OK?
 
 
 

 

 

You definitely don't want to do this in one of Minnesota's coldest winters!
