Well, POOP!
I wanted some snow.
(Going to pout in the warm corner)
Snow once every 40 years or so, is about as often as I like to deal with it :)
We’ve had only a very light rain here in Eagle Rock. Nothing like the warnings describe....hubby keeps scratching his head and wondering when the “ storm “ is coming.
How about the rest of you?
wow Norm~~ Impressive!
It is looking very dark in the west out my little window....Cold and Wind seem assured...rain and snow will depend.
AW tubebender, what you need is more wet snow, rain,gusts and a couple bottles of cool Rainere (?) beer.
YW!
Wow, we just got ice pelleted, tiny fellars we’re the only red on the radar in the bay area. (beside bezerkeley)
Glad this event isn't earlier in the winter, because if the surrounding Santa Rosa Mountains got snow, we'd get the frigid wind effect for many, many days...............but we're predicted to be back in the mid-upper 70's by midweek.
I'll take this one as a mere photo op tomorrow or Sunday morning.
Ice pelts? wow... so it is happening for reals! Hmmmm glad we have a nice fire going here tonight!
I’m not sure we will get any flakes here, it’s 45 right now and we may make it to the low 30s,, , the pellets sure drove the poodles nuts.. two spurts of ‘em so far.. looks like a lot of small cell activity as this stuff blows thru..
