Stormy Weather! How about a roll call... Date: January 16, 2022 06:29AM |
...for those of you forumites in it's path. Still have power? Ice? Snow? Just rain and/or nothing like what was predicted?
Here in SE lower MI it's just a Winter morning at 5ºF and calm.
A little break from the grief...

Up early this morning, sleep patterns are way off right now, and the wind was howling all night. News said it was at 46mph in downtown ATL which is tropical storm strength.
We had about 1/2” of rain. They say the temp is going to drop and we should get maybe an inch of snow later.
Hopefully the wind won’t cause any power outages from downed trees. They seem to think our area will hopefully have minimal ice/freezing rain and I certainly hope they are right. Ice is awful.
Tomorrow morning we might have black ice on the roads but I don’t plan to go out anyway.
I made a carafe of cold brew last night so that I will have caffeine available if we do lose power.
Right now, I can’t face the idea of having to go without coffee.
Just started raining again.

It was supposed to start here three hours ago (6 am) but just started a little while ago. Very small flakes, but coming down heavily.

Checking in from the now calm side...haven't seen rain or snow since December 30th. High today of 46°....sigh.
Feel free to send snow back our way.
Thought you all had gotten feet of snow!

I got a Rock, says Charlie Brown.
All we have is rain, rain, rain.
Was hoping for a little snow in SC. Kids asked for snow for Xmas. No such thing, here.

We got a couple inches this AM in central NC. It's been sleeting for several hours now. Calling for freezing rain this evening on into the night. So it should be a countywide sh!tshow in the morning. I hate ice.

Central Arkansas (near Little Rock):
Saturday PM into Sunday: got some cold rain after sundown, then sleet, then big fluffy snow around 1 or 2 AM. Windy.
Sunday AM: This morning it's still cold with a powerful breeze; woke up to temps around freezing but wind chill about 25F or so. Sunny and clear. Only evidence of snow/sleet is the spots the sun hasn't hit yet.

Be careful if you go out. Research shows the most accidents happen when there is less than 4 inches of snow.
I am not sure if people take it as a challenge to continue on as normal, or businesses won't give people the day off if it's even remotely possible to drive on the main roads.

The worst driving conditions I experience most often are when a sharp cold front moves in over wet roads and glazes everything.
Here in the 'Burgh we're expected to get busted in the chops, 6 to 13". It has not started yet as I write this. Probably a couple hours yet before it begins about 4 PM.

I'm fortunate to live in a rare Atlanta neighborhood with in-ground utilities, power very rarely goes out for us (knock wood), but if it does we have gas fireplaces and two very large dogs...
Two dogs should do it as the likelihood of a three dog night in the Atlanta area is very low.
And that Star Wars mashup pic was really funny.
Here in mid Michigan, while it's been cold, we've had two sunny days in a row. Sunshine in this area is rare in the winter. Two in a row is very rare.

Snowflakes are getting really big here now. They look like cotton balls dropping from the sky. It is starting to stick.

So far we've dodged the freezing rain bullet in west central North Carolina. We've had 3" of snow and sleet and still sleeting, supposed to go to snow later this evening. More snow coming Thurs. and Fri. they say. The low overnight was 19F. and the high has been 31 at midnight. Currently 28. Barometer is fairly low at 29.42/996.3mb and dropping.

Wind? Snow? Sleet? Ice? Combo of the all, L.D.? Haven't seen a lot of wind reports.

Just got horrible pictures from my brother's house, at about 3000 ft elevation in north Greenville County SC. 10 huge trees came down around his house; the driveway and front entrance are blocked, outside cooking area smashed, trellises and veg garden ruined, and a lot of mature landscaping must be toast. Despite it all they are fortunate nothing landed directly on any people, or the house.
That sounds awful, like a winter hurricane.
I am glad the house and people were spared, but the clean up must be daunting.

7:20 and there is some sleet with the snow. Glad we haven't shoveled yet. Could be some ice on the way.
