Currently 7 with a WC of -7 here. They're looking for 4 before morning :o ::)
I might be slow, but I'm mostly accurate.....

Good morning all.

The rain finally stopped here.  Sometime around 1 AM I'm told.  Since Tuesday, we're at almost 4" of rain.  The higher elevations got upwards of five feet of white stuff.  Forecast for today is high of 50, with rain likely in the afternoon.

My grandmother is going to be arriving today or tomorrow for Christmas.  She lives twelve hours away, over more than a dozen mountain passes.  In storms, it takes a while.

We're at 17 with WC of 5. WAs much colder than that this morning. Guesser's are saying' snow around 9 tonight, and then an icy mix. I've got the keys to the kingdom this weekend, but my associate may have to kick in if we've got to salt ::) :-\ :o

Icy mix is here, 26F, going to around 0F tonight.  Slicker than snot on a greased door knob out there, ran to the pick-up to grab something, almost fell on my arse, forgot how slick bare feet are, maybe I need hob nails in my soles, or Legos. ;D

Afternoon all.

First day off from my new job.  Woke up at 7 instead of 5, then got up and drank coffee and froze mt tail off taking the dog outside.  One thermometer said 19, the other said -5...  It felt like the later, but in reality was about 10.  Ice on everything.  And, of course we have all city slickers up for Christmas, so there are car wrecks all over the place.  On the bright side, my friend who works at Starbucks is getting a lot of overtime. ::)

Grandma should be up in a few hours.  Then I have to drive her and a friend to another town in the county.  Over an ice-crusted mountain pass.

Cold and damp here, just below freezing outside. Misting just enough to ice up the cars windshields. Don't know how the roads are, and since I'm off work today, I'd just as soon not find out. Spent a little "quality time" with Mr Husqvarna( The wood cutting kind, not a Swede Mauser),after lunch will do a bit more.

About an inch of the E.W.S. (Evil White Stuff) appeared overnight. That's close enough to a white Christmas for me, let's just skip to spring.

Guess there's more to the 1" of EWS that I on reported before, seems there's ice underneath it, so most everything's cancelled for today.

Morning all.

None of the white stuff, but plenty of ice.  Had to put all the animal waterers in the microwave to thaw them.  20 last night, and not a cloud in the sky. 

Headed to the city for church today.  Mother is under the weather and grandma is tired from her trip, so they are staying home to watch the dog.

Morning all

Sounds like y'all need to put another couple logs on the fire ::)

Getting ready for work right now.  It's a little difficult, since my grandmother is in the living room, which is where I have to walk through several times at 5 am.  Also where I work out in the winter time.

19 degrees right now.  High of 55 and sunny expected.  Going to finish flushing my power steering after I get home.
