2 hours late

B-B-E is two hours late for Tuesday, February 19.

Weather-dot-com says we'll get "up" to five below zero today! Well, isn't that a treat! At 06:20, we've got 8 below zero with 33 below wind chills and gusts up to 31 miles per hour out of the northwest.

Not sure what the prospects are for the Jaguars boys' basketball team's championship-caliber game against Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted (16-6, 10-1) tonight. It's one of those games I've had circled on the schedule all season long.

The Jaguars, by the way, have a 20-1 overall record. The Lakers have won 9 of their last 11 games since losing on their floor to our Jaguars by a 58-52 score on January 17.

I think if you put that special emphasis on a game, you invite weather to make a mess of things.

*Whew! Check this out...yesterday afternoon (Monday) Willmar school buses were sent back to town with kids still on them to avoid getting caught out on rural roads in the blizzard. Willmar schools released students at 12:30pm.
