Northern weather

[robert.]

landscapers are spreading mulch while the state spreads brine.

That is still what I like about the south.

We have screwy weather also but not like that.

Yup. All you have to deal with are tornadoes and hurricanes, and the periodic migration of the southern striped snail......and ice storms.

[rogruth]

I have not seen an ice storm in the 41 years I have been in this area. We got @ 2" of snow once. Savannah claimed 4" the same morning.
One hurricane that hit Savannah was a category 1 and there have been 2 tornadoes. I don't remember any reports of the southern stripped
snail migration.
Of course that migration may be ongoing and no one has noticed except the designated migration watcher.

They are hard to spot - the stripes help them to blend in.....

[rogruth]

I'll look for them.

Warmest winter ever they tell me:



Well it ain't going without a fight...

Got nothing in No. VA, and I got nothing up in Franklin Co, PA.

Saw the tops of South Mountain and Braddock Heights has some snow on them, but that was it.

Another disappointment............

Weatherman keeps saying "tonight snow for us" . no matter what falls from the sky tonight. It looks like i'll have to cut grass by the first of April. I always try to hold off till the first week of may with the grass and then stop cutting end of September.

We got some rain late yesterday so I emptied the boxes of firewood into the fireplace......

Presuming you guys in Florida and Georgia made it through Hermine and the last twenty-four hours in good shape. Hopefully Mike Dench is hunkered down if he's still in Painter, Virginia.

Today in this area it is hard to tell that it even rained yesterday.
Now 30 miles east in Savannah there are many more signs, downed trees mostly.
They also had a lot of flooded streets but that happens even when a frog pees in Savannah.

Unseasonably cool here, Sat. 82 Sun. 81 normally over 100 the 1st 2 weeks of Sept. and often the whole month. 94 starting Wed.

Not one lick of rain here. I'm twenty-four miles from the middle of the Chesapeake, and it sounds like everything was on the eastern shore. A couple more weeks of this lack of moisture and we'll be able to take pictures similar to Wayne's.

..........everything was on the eastern shore.

Just about it. We had a hard rain here a few days ago, but nothing of consequence since then - still drying out with the temps down a bit.
