2 Years, No Snow. Tomorrow, heavy rain & flooding is predicted. Today, it is sunny and cold, 42F, but the sun makes everything ok. If no snow, give me sun.

Lingering a bit above freezing here. No snow today, maybe tonight.

Windshield scraping this morning due to light snow from the weekend that melted a bit, sagged down, and then refroze into a mass.
 

Just a chilly mud hole with lots of standing water outside here but well above freezing with light winds now which are supposed to get over 40 mph, it has rained all day so far.. All my outdoor things have been cancelled but feeding livestock cubes, so no fishing Thursday or shooting this week, almost all I do is weather related in one way or another. Winds or rain...NE Texas here

well, I'm not sure about @Georgiagranny's neck of the woods, but here in SE Georgia, we are expecting (for us) severe weather... gale force winds, rain and possibly tornadoes. Schools are cancelled tomorrow b/c of this, eye dr. called off all appointments-- seems everyone is just shutting down pending this storm.

Of course, my (older) daughter--ER nurse-- still has to work. Older granddaughter asked her why *she* didn't get called off from work b/c of weather. Daughter chuckled... "nurses work regardless..."
 
@CinnamonSugar Our forecast isn't much better than yours except that the likelihood of tornadoes is less. Not looking forward to going to work in the morning in pouring rain. Getting home late morning or noonish will probably be worse than at 6am, though, because there are lots of low spots and also ponds close to the road. After 12 hours of pouring rain, it's gonna be dicey.

Take care, @Georgiagranny ... you can always bake more croissant but we could never replace *you*!!
 
Sunday I woke up to about 6-8 inches of snow on my car and possibly a little less in my driveway and many neighbors decided not to go to church because our services are live on line anyhow and we all had about a foot of snow at ends of our driveway when the road plow pushes the snow off the road.

But as I started to watch the services about 11 AM on line I had already lost a post I made here, and then I lost the whole internet.

I looked up to my satelitte dish on my roof and it was halfway filled with snow My TV dish will still work with that amount of snow in it . Then by 1 PM the temps went up with a little bit of sun and I was able to go down the hill to the dollar store to get a few things to prepare for today, which might be worse. They expect a rain/snow mix but also high winds.

We could have a power outage as well. WE have store water, and batteries for that possibility. However it is absolutely beautiful out there! Sometimes I tell people I used to live in a "Southern state" - New Jersey! ;) Because the weather there was far different and only a few inches of snow could close the schools.

Geez I just almost lost access on internet again....... there are very low clouds blocking the transmission.
 
got abt 3 inches snow out there now, starting to build up
on tree branches, and that concerns me for power lines too...lotsa issues on the interstates of course...all schools closed
some business closed, local gov't closed....
 
We're getting those high winds they predicted and heavy rain. It's 35* and it was freezing rain this morning so no school buses went by so I'm assuming no school today.

What concerns me is the birch trees in the front yard. Before my husband died in October we had the local tree service come and evaluate those (white) birch trees and the huge maple tree and see what needed pruning. They were scheduled to come in November but I canceled it because I wasn't sure about my finances after hubby passed away.

Now, I'm watching those birch trees swaying in the wind and what concerns me most is my neighbors truck is parked under a branch that was going to be pruned. It's hanging right over his truck and I hope that branch doesn't snap. I don't want to find out if I have good homeowners insurance or not! I think I'll be calling the tree service again soon.
 
Got some heavy wet snow overnight, maybe an inch. Went out and shoveled and brushed it off so when the rains arrive I don't end up with frozen slush after it turns very cold here later on.
 
Can’t often say this, but literally the rain is *lashing* down. I can hardly see the house across the street. Wind blowing gustily; I see I’m gonna have a pretty strenuous yard pick up. But that’s after Lake Erie in the side yard recedes!
