Storm Watch

There is some massive horrible weather incoming along my current route.

L and I watched the weather and looked at maps this morning over breakkie and both reached the same conclusion: today, I need to drive straight to Stromsberg, NE (about 5 hours with stops along the way) and hunker down.

This will put me on the periphery of both a northern and southern storm cell in a place with power so I can comfortably watch the nastiness pass.

I am meeting reader P.J. and her hubby on Sunday in Stromsburg. Monday, I will need to haul ass and just got NORTH. I’ve checked road and weather conditions across North Dakota, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba and it’s all winter driving conditions, floods, and impasses. A lot can change in 10 days, but with the way the weather is going, I can’t take any chances. Right now, the goal is the border, no matter where. I’ll figure out my next move once I’m across.

I’m off and will post when I land tonight.

  1. What happening with your black water holding tank, just wondering?? My husband is asking….

    • Norma, I can’t do anything about it until I get back to Canada. I don’t want to give too many details about how I’m managing to avoid stirring up any discussion I don’t want to get into, but let’s just say that my grey tank has a yellow tinge to it and that I’m doubling up on the kitty litter for the rest, while using public facilities as much as possible. Not ideal, but manageable. Soon as the weather warms up, I will be rinsing the black tank well to remove odours and the risk of spillage.

  2. Fortuna, ND 65 and sunny this Sunday…not doesn’t seem even right.
    You’ve had one darn ride trying to get back to border…been following! Hope things begin to look up! Today is the Feast of St. Joesph the Worker…he’s been deep in my thoughts today! Hope you get there soon and hunkered down!

    • I’m here and hunkered down! It has been a CRAZY winter!

      Fortuna, huh? I might be going right near there. It’s less than four hours from my property in SK.

  3. Hoping for safe travel day for you. You’re coming north and another good friend is heading to Texas today. It’s almost 5PM here and still no snow or ice in the Omaha area.
