A High Standerd, 9 shot with 3" barrel.

B) Wind Chill Advisory
During the winter, gusty winds can make already cold temperatures seem even more frigid to the skin. When the Wind Chill Index (how it actually feels outside) is below -15 degrees Fahrenheit, what type of advisory does the National Weather Service issue?
Your Answer: Wind Chill Advisory
Very low wind chills are extremely dangerous because the lower they are, the quicker hypothermia (a serious condition in which the body's organs start to lose functioning due to bitterly cold conditions) sets in.

Tomorrow.. another gorgeous start with a few patchy clouds in the morning. Skies will be mostly sunny with daytime highs around 80. Saturday will likely be the warmest day of the week with highs near 85. Forecast high temperatures will stay around 80 through at least next Monday.

Here's todays WT-A...
C) Winter Storm Warning
The National Weather Service issues this warning when six inches of snow or more is expected in a 12-hour period or 8 or more inches averaged for over a 24-hour period. This statement does not meet all of the requirements for a Blizzard Warning.
Your Answer: Winter Storm Warning
Winter Storm Warnings might not seem as threatening as Blizzard Warnings, but the weather conditions associated with them can be almost as bad! The only exception is lower sustained winds which will not reduce visibility to a dangerous level in this situation.

PPs,
Just got through putting 3 pistols and 4 rifles and a shotgun in my safe. Must have about 20 guns in the safe.
That baby is now loaded to its MAX!
Thanks! No fixen old electrics anymore. For years now, they just scrap them for useable parts, FREE, to keep them out of land fills.
About a year ago, a company that did just that, had one of their trucks come to my city. Walt & I took all the old stuff of that kind down to them. They thanked us very much...))
That's for sure! Samsungs a good. But for some reason, ours began to crap out about a year ago. When you turn it on, it now takes 4 tries for the picture to come on. Meaning it tries 4 times to load its self. Then sometimes, after the pic somes on, there little RED lines all over the picture.
That's why I replaced it.
I see @@ no picture! Where's the picture?
Thanks, yes I did. It's just amazing how the price of all electrics have come down over the passed 5 years.
The one its relplacing, a Samsong 46" HDTV with hardly any of the goodies that's on the new one cost $2,080.99.
The new LG 50" one cost $1,049.99.
Both bought from the Amazon.com store. Also FREE S&H.
Yes, her too!...))
I was checking and paying my Visa Amazon CC bill...
for $1,659.99 for last month!
Dam, funnn stuff is expencive!~LOL!!!
Two of them were a 14 gun, gun safe and a 50" LG HDTV with every bell and whistle one can put on a TV!!!
That's for sure and Paula Deen says too!~LOL!

Today's Forecast
Wednesday, July 27th - 6:50 am
Overcast skies will give way to sunshine again this afternoon. The weather is very similar to yesterday-- with daytime highs headed for the low 70s. Comfortable conditions continue tonight with overnight lows in the mid 50s.
Beginning tomorrow, high temperatures will trend warmer. Less clouds in the morning.. means more sunshine during the day. Daytime highs will be in the upper 70s. Seasonal temperatures are on the way for the weekend...which means 80 degrees is again within reach for several days. Enjoy!

Here's todays WT-A...
A) Dense Fog Advisory
What public statement does the National Weather Service release for an area expected to have very low visibility (less than 1/4 of a mile) for at least three hours?
Your Answer: Dense Fog Advisory
Foggy weather can pose a very serious threat to motorists because it greatly reduces how far they are able to see around them while operating vehicles. When one is issued, take extra precautions to drive safely, such as allowing more space between you and the car in front of you, and using high beams.
