The calendar provides 24 fun things to do online

Farms.com is pleased to once again help farm families get into the holiday spirit with its Holiday Countdown Calendar.

Beginning Dec. 1, when a user clicks on the appropriate day, the calendar will reveal a fun video, activity, or game.

These include decorating a gingerbread man as well as how to draw a gingerbread man.  There are plenty of wordsearch and scramble games as well as  fun Christmas videos.

“Farmers give so much of their time throughout the year, whether it’s tending to their crops and livestock, or being active community members,” said Graham Dyer, Farms.com President and CEO. “This is a small way for us to encourage farmers to take a few minutes for themselves and their families to enjoy the holiday season.”

Dec. 24’s window links to NORAD’s Santa Tracker to follow his journey distributing gifts to kids around the world.

Dr. Kathie Dello doesn’t usually do comparisons like that, but does plenty of figuring on what happened in the weather and climate each day in her job as the state climatologist of North Carolina. Some of the biggest rainfall amounts were in the 20 to 30 inch range over a three day period that will likely change the state for the next three decades or more. We get into 100, 500 and 1,000 floods, the closing of I-40 for a year and how -- if at all – certain things should be rebuilt.
