Weather forecasters like to name storms.  This storm was named Ethan.  We did get about 6” of wet, heavy snow.  It started about 3:00 AM.  By 11:00 AM it was tapering off.  By 2:00 PM it was light rain.  By 6:00 PM precipitation stopped completely.  Pretty much just as forecast. Its really impressive what computer modelling can do.

The tractor repair shop called with bad news.  More then the clutch needs replacing on the H.  There are other housings around the clutch that are bad too.  That’s not completely unexpected consider the tractors age.   We discussed it.  The tractor does have life in it yet.  We know the Massey will not meet out needs.  We could be looking at $1800-$2000 now.

The weather forecast says the cold pattern could be breaking.  Tomorrow and Friday should be nice.  And next week it warms into the 40s.
