Electrophile Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 It snowed again overnight, probably another one or two inches. Now it's raining. It's supposed to sleet/snow overnight again. When will this shit end? As much as I love snow, we left Chicago to get away from this stuff. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 It's snowing steadily here and supposed to snow through late tomorrow night. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 20", although the forecasted amount keeps changing. We just had a power flicker too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Boy, I'm glad we don't live further north. I don't know if we could handle almost two feet of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonzoLikeDrumer Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 We had some fresh snow (maybe an inch) early this morning but the rain has washed all that was on the roads away now. It's one big slushy mess now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I have a feeling we're going to lose power; people around us have, and I can hear ice falling. It flickered a couple of times earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUCK'EYE' DOC Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I have a feeling we're going to lose power; people around us have, and I can hear ice falling. It flickered a couple of times earlier. I hope not, Virginia. We are getting lots of snow, predicting up to 14 inches by tomorrow. It is very wet and heavy, and the wind is blowing from the north east (very weird as it usually is out of the southwest) causing huge snow drifts. I wouldn't be surprised if we lose power, too, due to the weight of this snow on the power lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 We just thawed out but the weather people are saying we're due to get some more tonight but nothing like last week...Tennessee use to get a lot. I remember the the ice storm we had in Memphis--it was bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3hrsoflunacy Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 No snow. In Southern California, when we want snow we drive about 3-4 hrs to enjoy it up in the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 No, Raining with Electrical Thunderstorms predicted. Hopefully not like this one in 2005 about ten minutes drive from my place. If it ever Snows here it'll blow the whole Global Warming "Theory" out the window! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 It's changed back to snow and knock on wood, we still have power (for now at least), although lots of folks in Central Virginia have lost power. Not nearly as much accumulation as I thought we'd have (maybe 6"?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailor86 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 We've got a grand total of maybe 3" here in Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 It's lightly snowing right now -- not much in the way of anything. Gosh, as much as I love snow I just wish it would stop. This is extremely unusual for this part of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailor86 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Some people are speculating possibly 2-3' over the weekend; I sure hope not though Right now we've got freezing rain falling, so I'm a little nervous about losing power. My brother lives in Berryville, Northern Virginia. He said it's not that big a deal. They're sure covering it on the news like it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigstickbonzo Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Just shoveled about 17+ inches and its still coming down sideways and not expected to cease until sometime this evening. It's a good thing I have a keg of Yuengling, a full frig of assorted beer in the garage and about 500 dollars worth of liquor in the cabinet.

~tangerine~ Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 We got about two feet of snow. Started Friday around 6:30 pm and went on until after 2pm today. Kept me at work overnight after my day shift yesterday. At least i got a private patient room of my own to shower/watch tv and sleep in before going back for more work today. Came home to shovel the heaping mess. I think i've had my fun for the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 It would appear that the weather is gone from our area now. It's still going to be chilly, but no more rain/sleet/snow in the forecast, at least up to Monday night. Thank God, because I just finished shoveling the last of the snow/slush/ice from our driveway this afternoon and don't want to do it anymore.

Virginia Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Power back on after almost 36 hours; house still ~ 50 degrees. South Carolina power company rocks for helping! Hermit crabs almost froze but they are ok. Didn't sleep well. Extremely grumpy. Cabin fever. Not sure if I'm going to work or not tomorrow; haven't dared to look in our 2 refrigerators/2 freezers yet Lots of laundry/dishes/shoveling to do. All is well; house still standing; lost a few trees; everyone healthy. Hope all affected fared well! Calling for 2-4" more Tues and more over the weekend Moving to Bahamas next week...
