    Not sure, but maybe you'll get some of the snow that dumped all over Colorado and Nebraska / Iowa over the weekend. Not sure whish direction it's heading or if it has lost its power, but we got right at a foot where I am. If the weather hadn't been so warm, the rain we got first would have made it closer to two feet. Monday it was 70° and by Saturday we had a foot of snow.

    Which ever way you want to look at it, good or bad, we had a high pressure over Michigan and gave us a nice clear sky Saturday and pushed the storm South of us. Snow on last forcast I saw was to be here Thursday or Friday.
    .
    70 degrees and then a foot of snow. That's nuts and sure would mess up the fruit farms here.

    The temperature is good but it's still flooded outside. We had days of rain and the ground is saturated and my yard is a lake. It will take days to dry up.The humidity is waaaay up there and the mosquitoes are brutal. It will be a few days before I open the house up, I need the yard to dry up a bunch and a few days of cool weather should slow the skeeters down a bit.At least I don't have to run either the heater or the air conditioner for the rest of the week.








    This was my yard on Saturday, yesterday it was even deeper, by at least another 6 inches.
    Today it's down some but it's still way too wet to walk around out there without rain boots on, which I don't own.

    It's going to take the rest of the week to dry out, I figure at least Thursday or Friday before I can walk out to my dishes.
    And I really want to get out there and start working on converting two of them to Dish Network.

    My yard does the same thing after a period of heavy rains.

    Unfortunately, it looks like the cool, dry weather is not going to last. There's already a ring around the moon, which means high humidity. Temps are going back into the 60s, so 70s can't be too far off. Might have to start looking forward to October...

    That is a mess, Dee.
    Jet stream will dip to South. 15 to 18 degrees Friday & Saturday. (at least that is the weather guess.)
    Thank goodness for my "beach sand". Sucks up the rain like a sponge.
    Snow is almost all gone in front yard. Only part left is where house shades it from the sun.

    FINALLY

    Old Man Winter decided to let Oklahoma have a couple of days of winter. Going down to 11 with windchill around 4 tonight. Even a chance of snow Sunday evening into Monday. We've only had a half inch this season. The weathermen are giddy, already planning to go on air early Monday morning in case it affects the morning drives for folks. But then back to mid 50's to 60 by Wednesday.

    Michigan under big warnings tonight and for Wednesday. Snow, Ice, Rain, mess. Weather service says 1/4 to 1/2 in of ice is possible. That takes down many power lines. May have to get some of the junk off the generator and fire it up. Hope not. Time will tell. Nothing here yet.
