Rankin5150 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Heavy rain, house shaking thunderclaps and moderate lighting. Winter is on our doorstep and I feel her fury will blast on us in February. At least I hope so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I no the snow in ten days rule is crazy but it has verified for me more so than non in many winters. This winter it has been spot on. Maybe because i live in the mountains but i tend to put stock in it. I have not heard any thunder but they are calling for snow after midnight for me. Who noes. Current temp is 51.2 and light rain.

Crazy! Better get snow in ten days! Yeah I had an issue with my Directv signal a while ago. No issue with my wireless internet though, which is odd because I always seem to lose it during a storm. Hopefully that wive's tale pulls through haha. I expect white on the ground unless someone brings a lot of spray paint... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Got .1 with the first bit of rain this afternoon, and got .2 with the first band about dusk. Another band is approaching, but I can't see getting more that a tenth or two from it as it isn't very deep, and it's moving fast. Kind of pitiful, but I'll take it over sunny and warm. Sure hope more comes in for the weekend. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperNET Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 We had a sereral rounds of lightning and thunder, and currently it's raining to beat the band. We need a good soaker, it's been a while..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaffneyPeach Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 We had a nice storm earlier. My Husky's first decent storm. Thankfully, he didn't seem to mind at all and proceeded to take a nap. I am so over the 10 day rule for storms and snow in winter. This year I think it means if it storms you get more of the same in ten days. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernNJ Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Not sure if Mississippi is considered "Southeastern" here but a rather intense storm with potential for a tornado is southwest of Hattiesburg at the moment. I saw the mesocyclone intensify at 344 CST, but a TOR was not issued until a clear-cut TVS was indicated at 355 CST. Even if a tornado does not occur, I wished they would have moved a tad quicker on this storm. 0402 PM CST TORNADO 4 NE SANDY HOOK 01/17/2012 MARION CO MS *** 2 INJ *** EF-2 TORNADO...3 MILE PATH LENGTH AND 1/4 MILE WIDTH...ALONG MAIL ROUTE RD AND CLEAR CREEK CHURCH RD...MOBILE HOME DESTROYED AND ONE HOUSE HEAVILY DAMAGED...NUMEROUS TREES AND POWER LINES DOWN. Apparently it did become a tornado after all. I hope the two individuals are OK. Their mobile home was pretty much leveled. 7 minutes lead time, now it can been seen why I wanted a TOR here 5-6 minutes earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
