And well I know living in a State the depends on the snow for Winter activities. Almost each week on the news another Winter sport has been cancelled because of the lack of snow. But when it comes to jobs, businesses, loan defaults, etc., I think you need to look a the rich bastards in Washington that screwed up the Country for the cause of so many of our problems. They still have money and I'm broke!

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.

Cool front coming through here, bringing temps back to seasonal (50s highs, 40s lows)...
I think Dee might be opening her windows tomorrow morning

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.

Reminds me of how my yard used to look when we had to big rains. Had to start filling dirt in those low spots.

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...Current systems: 2X Visionsat IV-200 PVRs; Pansat 2700; Digitrans DTE-7150 DVB/Digicipher II; Twinhan and Nexus-S PC DVB cards; SiliconDust HDHomeRun ATSC/QAM networked tuners; fixed 1 meter Channel Master dish with Eagle Aspen P870 FSS Ku-Band stacked LNB; 2X 3ABN 36" dishes with Invacom QPH-031 Ku/DBS-Band LNBFs on Moteck SG-2100 H-H motors; fixed Sadoun SD180G 1.8 meter dish with Eagle Aspen B1SAT STACK C-Band stacked LNBF; Winegard Square Shooter OTA DTV antenna

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.
