Russian scientist that predicted a mini ice age in North America and Europe in 2014 due to decreased solar flares on the sun was right on.

Feels like an mini ice age to me!

Welp,the wife got stuck in a snow bank. She was on the way home from volunteering at the dog rescue. We live in the country and the rescue is in the country also,so there is no good way to come home. She was about a mile and half from home where she got stuck. I hopped on the tractor and tried plowing my way to her. I could only approach her from the front as it is about a 3-4 mile trip to try to reach her from the opposite direction. With it still snowing and the 35 mph winds, the snow was drifting the paths shut of what I just plowed. I almost got stuck twice myself. I was still about 80 yards from her when county sheriff showed up in a 4-wheel drive from the opposite direction and got as close as could to her. He said that the plows have given up for the day because they were fighting a losing battle. I told them that there is no way I could get to her and get her out,so we left the car there until the plows can get the car out. He was nice enough to he take her home. That was about an hour and a half ordeal.

We have about 12" of snow with the winds still about 25-35 mph. The temperature is supposed to be about -10* overnight and the highs tomorrow -5*. Wind chill to -40*. Now it's time for me to go finish thawing!

Thank you,Jeff. I agree. She was in our Mariner that is 4-wheel drive and still got stuck. Although,it doesn't have a lot of ground clearance.

Glad you both were at least to able to get home safe. The situation right now is nothing to take lightly. We were out shoveling this afternoon when we already had about six plus inches on the ground and by the time we had the driveway done, there was almost two inches of new snow laying where we started shoveling. Tomorrow is going to be wild trying to get to work
