 I'm picking up a six month coin in a couple weeks.  This is my second time around unfortunately.  Went about 2 1/2 yrs the last time and got pissed because things didn't seem that much better.   Found out the hard way they could get worse.   I've been the speaker at meetings about 3 times now.  None this time.  Funny how what your going to say always sounds better in your head than when it comes out.  I just got a great idea.  I'm going to use a teleprompter next time.  :-)

Yeah, I noticed that, about what you plan to say and what actually comes out . . . Congrats on the six months, too!

It started here about an hour ago.

At first it just flakes and melting as it hit the ground.

It's been much heavier the last 15 minutes. It isn't melting like it was.

It's still melting on the walkways and drive.....sticking everywhere else. Which means it's going to be slicker than owl shit under the snow.... :(

Last time we had this type of forecast and system....was in 1993.

We ended up with 24 inches on the ground.

Not good for a place with very few snow plows......

It's been snowing here since 9am; it's not sticking to anything except grass and parked cars.  Not sure what the roads look like.  I hope it isn't all slush.

this is what it looked like about 20 minutes ago....it's coming down quite fast now....

out my office window to the back....




out an upstairs bedroom window to the front....we are in a very hilly area and our driveway goes upward from the house....the house cannot be seen from street level as it is well below.....going to be fun getting out of here...




NWS is now saying up to 15 inches by the time it quits tomorrow sometime.  :o :o :o They are comparing it to the Snow of '93. The good thing is we didn't get rain here first that turned to ice. Hopefully because of that the trees won't collapse under the weight of the snow....

TV just showed Chattanooga....they were to only get rain, maybe some sleet. They are now getting sleet/snow.
The temps didn't warm up as expected.


Look out North Carolina!!

It went alright last night.  One thing I said, though--if I laid out the complete scope of my drinking, we'd been there two to three hours, instead of the 10-15 minutes I was allotted.

Three months.  One more day.

There's a deck up off of M's office looking over the back.....he claimed it as a deer blind when we moved in.

Until I explained that there was no hunting allowed here.

He said he had a bow and some arrows.....

Weather report is constantly changing.....

Southwest of us 60 miles on I75...was supposed to get only rain, maybe some freezing rain.....they got the freezing rain and have approximately 5 inches of SNOW already!!! The interstate is shut down going south due to accidents.

The weather guy just said that it's possible that we will get snow the rest of the evening...then it will turn to freezing rain for a while and go back to snow towards morning....this is to continue through to late afternoon tomorrow.

That will be a bad thing.

I don't think they really know what the heck the weather's going to do......so far the only thing they have gotten totally right is that it's going to snow.

Not their fault....just the typical unpredictability of the valley area of East Tennessee...

We are now getting rain and sleet.

It's 30 degrees outside.

This is going to be so ugly..... :(

Local weather is telling people to stay indoors and not travel.... not only because of the weather, but because of icing on trees and wires...they may fall.... :o

Weather bug says with wind gusts it could get down to -24 tonight.

People are out searching for the homeless, got to get them inside tonight.

Wind is so strong some of my shingles are flapping about, not a good night for a dog to be outside.

Quite a few Churches have open their doors to the homeless, when you consider there are children living in cars, vans and tents we have to save them even just for tonight.

Good Christian people are cooking hot meals for them, brewing coffee and hot tea.

So what are the Atheists doing.?    I hear a Temple in Manchester has opened its doors to the non Muslim, and the Jewish Temples are open.


there are times we can all get together regardless of faith to save a life.

Holy Fudd!  It doesn't look like a lot of snow until you have to scrape it off your car!  That took forever.  Driving home was uneventful other than having to pass a PT Cruiser doing 20mph.  My car handled pretty well in the snow as long as I stayed off the throttle.  If this weather system heads straight north, we's screwed.  Nobody will show up for work until Thursday.

I sure picked a lousy weekend to take off... nearly everyone has called out of work tonight and tomorrow.  It's going to be busy, busy unless someone decides to come into work and that won't be me.  I haven't had more than a day off of work at a time since 2007 and I want some rest, dammit.

Got lucky here.  And I will take it.  The rain came before the cold.  Be careful all y'all.  Since our weather drama ended up not being much drama, they called a weather dude in Tulsa.  The interviewers said "What are they doing in the airports up there?"  Answer:  "They are closed."  The end, not much illustration, but really, what do you need?

Snow started hitting central NC around 8PM, got about 2 inches now.  Snow's supposed to be constant throughout the night and most of the morning then turn to sleet for a few more hours.  I just love global warming.
