Ian Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 What an abysmal day. The only way to make it worse would have been to drop the temp by 10-15 degrees. It's tough to have a day like this at the darkest time of year. Light really has trouble penetrating through the cloud deck.. it was dark at 4.

Bob Chill Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 not yet I nicknamed my wife Fort Knox with our second set of twins. She went full term and even pre-c she was on lockdown. Just crazy. I was so sure they were coming early and she went right to the end with no issues. If she was going natural it would have had to be induced. Sometimes they just want to hang in there and not face the world to fast. Much better that way than coming early anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Druff Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Ill know how things are tomorrow morning - the plan is to induce this week. I want to be home for Christmas. Don't blame you for that at all! I think there was a natural breakage of the bag not long after the induction was confirmed in our case. Maybe that's the kick in the pants needed!

Bob Chill Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 This one's for you --> Lol- I often forget how crazy it sounds when I say it. It's not as hard as people think. First 2 years will kill ya but once they get to be around 2 you have perfect playmates. Mom and dad just referee. Singletons demand all your attention for quite a long time. I have it made now. My 15 year olds babysit my 8 year olds all the time so wifey and me can do what we want pretty often. Best of all we don't pay the 15 year olds for it. It's called rent.

Light really has trouble penetrating through the cloud deck.. it was dark at 4. Yeah...it was pretty bad. Awful day to have the day off so the contractor could come in and do some work in the house. I didn't even want to go out with the dog. Good thing is that the current misty drizzle looks like snow in the Christmas spotlights I have up.

wxdude64 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Temp. up to 50.2 here with rain, which is now high for the day, stayed in the 45-47 range most of day in dreariness until around 7, then it started to climb to current temp. Giant fail on forecast, called for a high of 58 today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Well this absolutely craptastic weather we have been having lately has brought on a nasty cold. Have been dealing with not breathing through my nose since Thursday. I usually suck it up but something has to give. Either stay cold and dry or just stay warm.

kurtstack Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 0Z GFS looks beautiful pre-truncation, and it looks like the jet stream orientation would prevent the storm from coming too far north. This post christmas storm has loads of potential. Gonna be a fun week leading up to christmas and the BChill storm!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristowWx Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 If the 6z is credible it is not even cold on Xmas...typical mid-40s and partly cloudy. This is just a painful as last winter and maybe a bit more since expectations were a touch higher...I hope the ensembles look better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Actually looks like a big time winter storm pre truncation... Might have to ride the DT train on this one DT is always right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CranberryWX Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Light drizzle this morning. We had a rainy afternoon and evening yesterday with a couple of brief heavy downpours, 0.41" as of this morning. December is turning out to be one of my wettest months this year...3.04" so far this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

December is turning out to be one of my wettest months this year...3.04" so far this month. We are still under a half-inch for the month, which followed a very dry November, yet with the fog and warm weather everything is damp. My wife is complaining about the lack of sustained frozen weather because she thinks that the bulbs she planted won't come up as well. I think that's the first time she has ever rooted for cold.
