Our Tuesday morning is starting out with plenty of sun but frigid temperatures. We have snow in our forecast every day this week, and there seems to be no sure opinion of how much we will get. They were predicting 1-2 inches last night and we only got about half an inch. That’s fine with me. I’m ready for some stable normal temperatures about now. It’s getting too late in the season for what we are having. Our 8:30 AM…
We had intermittent snow showers all day Sunday creating almost whiteout conditions at times. What’s worse is that we have several more systems coming later this week. We just can’t seem to keep the roads clear which is annoying for me. I can’t go anywhere until my husband clears the driveway and the road commission clears our road. My car has low profile tires and they are terrible in snow. We received 4.2 inches in all and our ground cover…
Snow began in the early morning hours and is continuing to fall at this time. We are under a winter weather advisory until 3 PM today. I measured about 2.5 inches of new snow so far and our landscape is all white once again. We could get another inch or two before it is done. Our temperature is mild right now but is expected to fall as the day wears on. I’m getting tired of shoveling. Our 9 AM temp…
With our present snow cover down to about 50%, that will change by tomorrow. There is another snow system that will bring 3-6 inches to our area. This seems to be a pattern that we have been stuck in lately. We’re lucky that most of it melts between storms, otherwise we would have about a foot on the ground by now. Temps will be milder today and that will be welcome. Our 10:15 AM temp is 24°F (-4°C), the humidity…
It’s no surprise that the groundhog saw his shadow today, but regardless, it’s a beautiful morning. I just wish it was warmer. We are under the influence of another Polar Vortex and they are getting tiresome to be sure. Our snow cover has been reduced to about two inches where snow remains, but about one third of the ground is bare. There is another system heading our way for the weekend which could dump up to 3-4 inches of new…
Will our weather ever stabilize? This swinging back and forth is getting annoying. Yesterday’s warmup got rid of about half the snow cover. Now, today, temps will be dropping all day and the frigid weather will be back with us once again. At least it is now February and spring is just around the corner. As I gaze out my window this morning, we have lost about half our snow cover and there is only about 50% coverage now. Once…
Our morning is starting out with partly cloudy skies and very strong winds. Since the snow cover is very light, it is blowing over where we cleared yesterday. Temperatures should reach the upper 30s today so we should have some melting. Other than than it won’t be very pleasant for being out and about. Tonight will be the full, blue, blood moon. It is questionable whether we will see it depending on the cloud cover. Our 9:45 AM temp is…
Those were the words of a local meteorologist in describing this storm. One to two inches overnight and into Monday morning was the prediction, but it strengthened through the day and we received just over five inches total. Some areas received nine plus inches. Along with it came some very cold temps which are expected to remain over the next week. So I guess this snow will be around for a while. Today is supposed to be mostly sunny but…
The forecast called for 1-2 inches of snow overnight for us. So far, we have 4 and it is still coming down. It is light and fluffy, quite pretty actually. How fast our weather can change. Two days ago, folks were out in light jackets and sweatshirts, today back to winter gear. But it’s January! This is what is supposed to be normal for us. I know the roads are bad and I’m so glad that I don’t have to…
Our Sunday is starting out with a little sun but that is not expected to last. Yesterday was beautiful except for the strong winds. We went on a horse-drawn wagon ride at our local nature conservancy which was a fund raiser. It was supposed to be a sleigh ride but Mother Nature didn’t cooperate, and at least we didn’t freeze. Temps reached the lower 50s but the winds made it feel much colder. Today won’t be as warm but the…
