Are you in the bullseye? 12" and drifting is good plowing, isn't it? :smow:

Nope. We're further north. Talking 3-6.

Travel is not advised! :eek::pound:

That's what I call slop. Close the schools and buy all the bread, milk, beer and eggs at the 7-11 before the end of the world!

I don't think you've had much snow so far? We could almost match your snowfall. :lol:

Way early too! Punxsutawney Phil said winter was over, so maybe it is the spring season. :facepalm:

We're getting 10-16, then it changes to freezing rain....then it changes to straight rain.
Apparently it originated in Texas of all places....they always blame us up here. :)

Used to be that they hunted the ground hog on ground hog's day :laser::rip:

... :D ...

Tornado threat seems to have moved on for the night. Flat line winds of at least 50MPH, but I've heard 70MPH a couple of times. Dunno' what the gusts got up to, but it was a little crazy around here tonight. My deck furniture is all over the yard.

I've seen some images from up North already. Hope everyone's okay.

Waiting on the winds you had southkogs. We're expecting some high wind gusts overnight from 50 to 60 mph. Heavy rain in the morning with severe thunderstorms. Looks like the real weather could be south of us in GAboaters neck of the woods. Hope everybody stays safe.

Oh and I hope everyone dealing with the white stuff is safe as well.

^^^^^^^^ Yep! We have the warnings up. A lot of rain and wind could be bad through Noon. Just watched the local weather and I think E, TN is going to be getting the same thing.

He said the tornado risk is low. Sure hope he didn't hook the dart.

Cow catcher. Tim. The wind is blowing so hard all the longhorns in Texas ended up in Wisconsin. There may be a few :flypig:s from the lower Midwest mixed in, too.

Another phenomenon of El Nino. :eek:

I'm about 75 miles south of WIMUSKY.
We were in the 9-12" zone.
But it fizzled, and we got about 6".

Plowed about 6000 sq ft of driveway, a trail to the bird feeders and LP tank, 100' of the road, and a few of the neighbors' mailboxes. The mail will be delivered, and when the plow comes through sometime tomorrow, they won't plow my driveway shut. :) My little Arctic Cat 400 does a pretty good job.

Here is what hit us ... lot's of rain and melting snow ... water breached the banks and stopped. Could have been a lot worse!

Yep, we ended up with only 4-5". Fine by me. All my accounts are done.... Easier to plow.... You know, that hunk of metal in front of the truck...... :)

What happened to the grass over on your side of the mountain? Those pictures make it look like it has turned white.
