We had sever thunderstorms this afternoon...

AND A TORNADO WARNING..

I don't think I saw much difference to
what we normally have..for winds, rain, etc..
but we got the flash lights out and stuff,
just to be safe...

Cold front just started pushing through here bringing us Tstorms, high winds, and lots of rain....It was 62 degrees out at 7pm before it pushed through...now tomorrow they are calling for snow flurries [Razz] ....it's crazy I tell you...drives me [nutz] nuts how it can be warm one day and snowing the next.

Hope nobody gets any tornados out of it..... [Frown]

We had mid 80's here all last week, and Monday as well, then 40 mile an hour wind all day Tuesday, with a low of 24 Wednesday morning. No rain in over a month, and no rain in sight. Ponds around here look like mudpuddles.

I got home from work about 2:20 AM and the temperature was 27 degrees. It felt almost balmy after last nights 19 degrees. That was at about 12:45 or so. The low for the night was 15! It hasn't been colder than that since the beginning of March. They're calling for a low of 20 here tonight.

it's 40 degrees right now. All my flowers got iced last night. I've got to get better and do some cleaning up outside before it gets too cold. We've got leaves everywhere and I didn't even put out pansys.

We've been having frosts, and finally got about
4" of snow the other day..

And I've had some Nicotiana plants, and I'll tell you they are very cold tolerant, the lower temps have been here for at least a month and a half...
and it wasn't until the snow the other day,
where they are reallllllly sad looking finally.. [Eek!]

Weezie, how do you stand it? We get a lot of snow here, and I mean a lot...but nothing like what you get in the snow belt with the lake effect snow....

I'll bet your kids will love it though....hope you have everything you need in case you're snowed in tomorrow!

Always stock up in the winter time, if there's buy one get one free, or 2 for $$ whatever the price..

The only thing I don't do is milk and bread, cause my husbands' job is considered EMERGENCY and he has to be out, and go to work...
so, he's always somewhere's to pick
up something~somewhere's...

I do have a small freezer in my back room,
and stock up on stuff...

And we are sooooooooooo used to it,
I've lived here my entire life..
and that's all we've ever had...

One mayor we used to have during the "Blizzard of '77,
he'd get on the radio and said,
there's a storm coming..."Go stock up, then stay home, get a six~pack and tune in to 97 Rock radio... AND RIP THE NOB OFF...
Meaning stay home and keep off the streets,
jerks....heheheheheheheeeeeeeeee...

We have pictures of me, in that storm, leaning
on our second story porch up on the hill.

During that time, we almost could have touched
the telephone wires by the end of the storm..
I am not lying...

But I live in ski~country...I lived behind the second highest peak in Western NY... *that ski
resort went under due to mismanagement..*
but I live in between two other ski resorts, half an hour on either side of me....
Holiday Valley Ski Resort and Kissingbridge Ski Resort

Me too! [muggs] I live at the base of the highest mountain in Maryland(Backbone Mt)....Mark used to work at the ski resort years ago doing maintenance and making snow.

When we ate at the restaurant(me and Jiffy) she got to see the ski slopes....we talked about how we could go and sit inside and watch them and have hot chocolate.... [Big Grin]

Yeh, Mark got to ride a snowmobile around and run the ski lift, make snow....and go skiing for free.....

I can NOT picture Mark skiing...that just cracks me up. [Big Grin] And I'm so clumsy that I'd severely injure myself.... [Roll Eyes] I just noticed though that they have tubing down the slopes, I could handle that! [thumb]

So I really would like to see that picture!!!!

Well, I haven't heard the full amount yet,
but we've gotten over a foot and a half last night....

We *well I should say me and my mother* were a
little nervous about driving for Thanksgiving day,
but the snow fell all at the right time for us,
early in the day yesterday, lightened up when it was time to go to dinner, and snowed heavily during dinner, then it stopped, mother was able to get home, us too a wee~bit later, and then it dumped the foot last night as everyone was sleepin'.... like it when it snows at that time...

The kids are going to be outta their cotton~pickin'~minds today.. outside, shoveling, tryin' to sled, and makin' angels....

Hot cocoa time!!!!! [grin]

No! these are from some system way up north and they are cold winds. We may get rain out of it, by the end of the week.

It's windy again tonight. But not as strong - 12mph
and temp is dropping to 46.

You're getting rain after snow? Ugh. slush!

Today at 12:30 PM it was 47 degrees. When I got back from Sunday dinner with my parents at 2:30 it was 39 degrees with drizzle. It was still drizzling when I got home from work at 12:30 PM. The temperature had dropped to 36 while I was away, but rebounded to 40. They are calling for near 60 tomorrow with rain through Tuesday, but no freezing temperatures till Wednesday night.
