Man we are getting slammed out here. It's snowing sideways from the north so hard that the southbound traffic can't see the traffic lighting :o and it's causing a few accidents. I guess the 70 degree weather had to end sometime.
-
Sorry, Ghost, 70 and sunny here.
-
Up here at the Eastern end of Lake Ontario are SUPPOSE to get freezing rain rain and freezing rain tomorrow tomorrow night and thursday.We will see its 45 and holding vette59jdwl

Here in Kentucky we are having a warm spell high 60's getting to spend time in the garage. Rain is headed our way tomorrow with a little cooler weather with it.
-
We started the week with 5 inches of snow on Monday which was gone by Tuesday. Today was 50° but tomorrow morning we get freezing rain and snow then by Saturday back in the 50's again. Like a roller-coaster!
-
50s here today, 60s until Sunday. Snow possible Monday???? I bought a new tractor mount weed sprayer to help with the new crop of weeds because of the wetter winter. I was able to test it some but had to drain and "winterize" it because of the below freezing nights this week. Soon it will be too hot and we will be in fire season. I'll be killing weeds and dragging out the fire hoses. Don't you just love it? ::)

Sorry, Ghost, the weather in Colorado is national news!! Supposed to be 73 here, today. ::)
-
I guess we are getting some of that Colorado weather it's turned of wet and cold here.
-
It's melting like crazy today. The house across the street yesterday had a bunch of ice streamers hanging from the gutter, but the funny part they were hanging at a south 30 degree angle from the gutter level. We were warm when everyone else was freezing. It's our turn. Saturday a little more snow coming. March (huh)
-
The melting was going great, but here comes another round. I hope it's not like the last one. Pictures are from the last storm.
-
We had the same thing the other day...gone today...
P.S. Merry Christmas (again)

Yesterday morning I was burning old weed piles and spraying the new growth in shirt sleeves. Get ready Ghost it's blowing your way.

I think we had around 3" on overnight saturday. By noon it was all gone, 55 saturday then 65 sun. Then an explosion of dandy lions. The Turkey Vultures are back, must have been 30+ flying over head yesterday afternoon. One soared down close, dang he was a bigg'n. They roost out s.w at the lake.

It has been snowing and blowing all day. I can not tell how much fell we have bare ground and pretty deep drifts. Spring time in Nevada ???? :o

It rolled into the hills today and the chain laws are in effect, but I think I will be ok this time since the brunt of it is north of me. Hopefully it will stay there. We got a big car show this saturday I want to attend, but you have to be there at 7:30 It should be a cool ride in the morning even though it will be in the 60's by mid day. Close to 80 by next mid week. And there you have my weather report. :)
-
YES YES YES I just heard it is all heading our way thanks for sharing this shi#! with us and its going down like getting minus numbers again even all day vette59jdwl just burn more fosil fuels turn up the heat lol lol hiding in the garage

Well I got woke up by cold sprinkels blowing in my window about 1am. We need the rain bad, been having big prarie fires all around here. I have a small creek on the west of my property, so I grabed a long handel rake this morning to disloge some big tumble weeds that got stuck on the way through. Reached out for the last one and slipped in the mud and got a nice COLD spring bath, feet first. >:( Luckily the water was down to just over a foot. Like to never got a good footing to get back out. Glad no one saw me, but i'm shure a few heard me yell! ;D

Steve ...Been lucky here the storms that went thru were North and South of us...Been abnormally windy and colder here for April..and have had the high alert on fires.....been warm for a few days then gets cold where you need a light jacket ....We still are looking for a lot of rain here typical it with give us down pours in April...Stay dry............
-
Sammons, Glad you got out of the creek. My buddy and I went to Our Inliner meeting Saturday. Stopped by the bar on the way home. It was cloudy but no rain. Within two beers there was lightning very close, the power went out, and the bottom fell out of the sky. After placing a $1,000 bet that the power was still on at my house, we make our own, I headed home through the running water. My wife doesn't like to be alone up here in the lightning. If not for the dozer work in November and last month's 220+ yards of gravel the old '53 would not have made it. I'm working on a set of guide wheels for the rock rake to help maintain the road and picking time between storms to spray weeds. Need to be ready for what may be a bad fire season this summer. There's always something. ;D

Ed it all was east of me. I heard the wind kick up here about 6:30 this morn. We are supose to be under the gun friday. Man I left all my windows open and woke up with my teeth chatering though!
I was beat after cleaning and giving the ol dog a bath. Went to bed early and overslept this morning, rather locked up. So I haven't done squat yet today. Good luck on the tomorrow cleaning! Stay safe man. :)

We woke up to a light dusting of snow this morning, then the wife tell me they are talking about 10 inches this weekend, but since then I think it has been changed. I hope so because I just uncovered the swamp cooler, and put the canvas covers on the awniings. I am not complaining because there are areas that are getting torn up.
-
Ghost Looks like you are in for it for a couple days. Hope it clears out fast for you. I like the first snow ,but after that can't wait till it's gone. Ron

It keeps circling around, raining and then snow and then all over again. There is not to much accumulating on the roads, but the trees and grassy areas are starting to collect the stuff. There is a good car show tomorrow. Well I guess there was a good car show tomorrow.
-
Ghost I was watching the radar, I was hoping you were warm enough to keep the snow from building up. Man that did keep looping over and over. Same thing with us on the rain, got about three inches here.
-
I was warm enough, and with the start of the warming today the snow is all but forgotten. 82 by thursday. :o
-
We had some storms around here late yesterday. Most were 30 miles away just west of Dodge City. We could see them from here! They said 13 tornados, most were around Dodge. A friend sent me a pic of the larger hail stones. :o
The this afternoon A friend sent me this pic of what's left of a customers p.u..
FATnLOW how did you fair? Looked like you had bad weather yesterday to(and this morn).
-
Dang Sammons. I will never complain about the snow again after seeing those pictures. WOW
-
Yeah stay safe Sammons & Fat n Low!
-
We have been getting hammered here to with the rain, many areas are still recovering from the last storm on 21 of March that had high winds ,rain . hail and tornados, Last night and early this morning at 4 am had one heck of a cell come thru and dumped 2 more inches of rain on top of the 5 inches that we had from Sunday and Monday. We get the rain then we have to contend with the hot humid conditions.
-
Hang in there guys, we're praying for you!
-
Sammons.....I see that Kansas is getting hammered again with the threat of tornadoes , severe winds and a lot of rain...Hope that this is not in your area... I see it was around Dodge City and Wichita. Looks like the large cell is East of you
-
Yee Haw, right in the thick of it. Neighbors are over(good basement) news keep seeing rotation. Little ones here and there, but raining like all get out. Creeks full and hail. Few miles south friend said 4" hail. Looks like another hour. ;D ;D
Thanks Chopper. My house sits in a low location and good basement. When we built it my brother had to skeedattle back to California before it was completed. But he made me promise to put on all of the hurricaine ties and earthquake straps. I felt real good on the heavy Calif code stuff, but........5yrs later the big EF5 Tornado hit Greensburg. With that much force, nothing is safe! One never thinks of a truck going through your house :o
