NORWAY-Blue light

A strange blue twisting light was seen above norway on wednesday morning. Some thought it was a galaxy closing others thought it was a comet heading for earth, some even thought it was santa clause visiting. But it was a failed missle fired by the russians that caused these strange lights it wasnt santa clause.
I think this would be sweet to see twisting lights in the sky. We usually look at a blue or a black sky with stars on it but never see a blew swirl in the sky. This is probably a once in a lifetime oppurtunity to get to see something like that. But on the otherhand its kinda scary thinking missles are being shot.

Cold sets in

Almost the entire us was 20-30 degrees below normal. It was below freezing point from Texas to Tennessee and from Minnesota to Illinois. Detroit, Michigan 16, Minneapolis MN -5, Chicago 1, and 14 in Portland Oregon. In the south it was in the thirties and forties and still dropping. Tens of thousands of people were left in the dark in Michigan from the high winds blowing over telephone poles. The great lakes region is supposed to be having snow showers.
Its just starting to feel like winter. I hate being in weather that is warm. I love this super cold and tons of snow. It helps the ice grow so we can get the fish houses out and catch some walleye. Not to long tell the permanents are out i already have my portable out. I hope it stays extremely cold for a few weeks so the ice grows allot and then get tons of snow.

SNOW

Much of the us braced itself for more winter havoc on wednesday. There are blizzard conditions in some parts of the us and rainy/windy in other parts. Madison wisconsin has allready recived 15 inches of snow. The temps will be plummiting and with windchill could be around 25-35 degrees below zero.

This is making me really excited. Ive been waiting all year for the cold and snow to come so i could go snowmobiling or icefishing and its finally here. Ill have to buy new tires for my truck but other than that this is awsome and hopefully we get as much snow as madison.
