Update for SC: still rainin this am too but temp is above freezing!
but temp is above freezing!
It got down to 18 last night, and supposed to get down to 12 tonight. They are saying we could hit single digits with the low tonight Not looking forward to that at all.
Today mid/upper 30s, but tomorrow is supposed to be frigid.
I'm hoping to get a few things done in the barn today to get ready for kidding in a few weeks. Need to clean lights/check lights, put some OSB on the back of the stalls <back of the stalls are pallet wall/sleeping area on the other side>. That will help block drafts on newborns, etc. Oh, and it would be great to make some hay feeders in the stalls! I've been using the large corner horse grain feeders, it's great for the does, but babies will climb/play/ and poo in those!

Our low this morning was 10! YUCK! That's pretty cold for us as we usually don't get that close to the single digits very often. The cold is hitting us early this year, feels more like January weather.Brrrr!! I hate the cold but better than 100 and up i guess for humans anyway it isnt that cold here but still pretty cold!!!
It was only 29 today too.
Tomorrow will be in the 40s, mostly sunny and a slight chance of rain, but I know how those 30% chance of rain can go, heh.
Calling for freezing rain and snow tomorrow night, then rain on Saturday. I'm so tired of the cold rain. I think I'd much rather have snow.
It was nice today even though it was so cold - all the mud was frozen, and not such a pain to walk on!
