That means snow for the mountains. Radar looks like they are already getting some.” 8:20:18 AM 1/25/04 “Yeah, me too NS. The moving company can't come load until Wed. So that's putting me behind by a few days. I'm getting a discount rate on a backhaul so I can't complain too much.” 8:21:36 AM 1/25/04 “Ok...I'm up........yawn.....stretch......

Now, in Florida, I no longer have to wait! « grinning »” 4:40:31 AM 1/26/04 “.” 4:52:49 AM 1/26/04 “BoneCrusher, Eh?? LOL They're still talking about freezing rain, but it's just cold water so far. The advisory has been shifted twice: it was supposed to expire at 8 AM originally, now it's 4 PM....” 5:36:44 AM 1/26/04 “A-Ha! I believe I do detect tiny icicles growing on the trees and powerlines -- maybe an inch long. That's right Nanook! A whole inch!” 5:39:33 AM 1/26/04 “we got a couple inches on the ground. darn, i was hoping school would be closed because of a huge storm. wtf is this 2 inches?!” 5:46:59 AM 1/26/04 “It seems to be a tad ugly here north of Augusta. It's the bridges and overpasses that'll get ya. Looks like I'm going to be late for work today.” 6:40:09 AM 1/26/04 “Its going to be UGLY in lower MI the next few days. 3-6 inches of snow, sleet, and freezing rain on top of it. Yuck. I dread my short commute in the winter. BTW, I love Buddur's posts on this thread. He's so chatty in the morning!” 7:03:53 AM 1/26/04 “MORNING!!!! I hope this day is a great one for everyone... mmmmmmmm.....cinnamon tea.....” 7:13:50 AM 1/26/04 “YAz... it's the cold air passing underneath... just like those hammocks, <VBG> (and all those little icicles begin to add up.) It seems like we've had much more ice than this without any major power outages.” 7:14:48 AM 1/26/04 “(did I just jinx myself?)” 7:16:31 AM 1/26/04 “in the 40's here in Alabama...... hows come we don't have any snow???? :(” 7:16:50 AM 1/26/04 “No new snow in beautiful Upstate New York this morning. It doesn't look like the storm will even make it up by me.” 7:21:33 AM 1/26/04 “divinity, you can have our snow, we might as well have none!” 7:23:03 AM 1/26/04 “when it snows here......the world stands still...and there is no milk or bread to be found....” 7:26:57 AM 1/26/04 “Those little icicles are now 1.5 to 2 inches long...” 7:34:39 AM 1/26/04 “I'd better check the road conditions.....

We get a tiny taste of freezing precip just once a year, usually. The ground is almost always too warm for anything to stick. We get actual Snow on the Ground once every 2 or 3 years and it's mostly gone the next day. We did get over a foot of snow once... back in 1973. That was Insane, <G>” 8:05:00 AM 1/26/04 “Twig......I love winter camping .....but....don't expect me there to camp anytime soon..LOL...” 8:05:11 AM 1/26/04 “LOL....@Tilt.....I know......when it snows here they close down everything.....and folks here do NOT know how to drive in the snow...so it gets REALLY scarey!!! heck if they even forcast snow they shut down EVERYTHING!!!” 8:12:30 AM 1/26/04 “good morning, check out our lovely weather forecast for today! ...CHEROKEE SC-CHESTER SC-GREATER GREENVILLE SC-LAURENS SC- SPARTANBURG SC-UNION SC-YORK SC- INCLUDING THE CITIES OF...

And the Exploder has grown a mouthful of small icy fangs. Dang. No film. Ice and thunder --- interesting combination. WoOAH, that was a loud one.” 9:45:45 AM 1/26/04 “I remember the guys on the Weather Channel talking about 'thunder snow' a few years ago. As I recall, the atmosphere has to be pretty F'ed up for that to happen. We do have a tornado watch southwest of here....” 9:49:40 AM 1/26/04 “wow, never been in a thunder snow storm. Kids are outside now slippin and slidin around the parking lots.” 9:56:58 AM 1/26/04 “Big lightning strike less than a mile away. Ice & Lightning... too weird.
