wxmeddler Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 It was a little funky, today has been a cleaning day. I'm loving the fact that the vacuum has the power to put a 3 week old to sleep I'm the oldest of 3, That was my one of my siblings favorite things to fall asleep to. That and putting their car carriage on top of the washer/dryer during a slow spin cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Took advantage of this day to clean out my flower beds. I have perennials that the dead stuff needed to come off after that last snow. My girls are enjoying being out also. It is currently 56 up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avdave Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Only got to a high of 51* here. Fog rolled back in this late afternoon, you could see it rolling in across the airfield at work and then on the way home it was pretty thick at times. 41* here now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Took advantage of this day to clean out my flower beds. I have perennials that the dead stuff needed to come off after that last snow. My girls are enjoying being out also. It is currently 56 up here. Speaking of flower beds, I have a mole burrowing tunnels in mine. Anyone have any pointers on how to get rid of him? Enjoyed some time outside on our deck this afternoon. Felt like an early spring day and the bird activity was great.....lots of jays, cardinals, woodpeckers, robins, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Speaking of flower beds, I have a mole burrowing tunnels in mine. Anyone have any pointers on how to get rid of him?

Felt like an early spring day and the bird activity was great.....lots of jays, cardinals, woodpeckers, robins, etc. Try 1 pint of Castor Oil in a 1 quart hose end sprayer filled with water. It will cover a pretty large area, and may succeed in running the mole off. If you can trace the trails or runs, you can also spread coffee grounds there.

BristowWx Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Has everyone noticed how every threat of snow no matter how remote seems to evaporate within a few days of the event...it's mind boggling...I think we are going toward a shut out this year...at least at the three airports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen is frozen and ZR....a decent amount of it....makes for wonderful pictures. I'll take my chances with power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristowWx Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 ZR = freezing rain. Yeah I know...I was asking where it was modeled...I was looking at the NAM and watching the GFS come in and they both look like train wrecks to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amped Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Rain verbatim, but there could be a sneaky cold layer at the surface thats not being modeled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amped Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Heights in the southeast are still too damn high. 576 needs to be down to cental, FL at least. Otherwise, the NAO AO and PNA aren't going to do jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BristowWx Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 not all of us in this subforum live at DCA/IAD/BWI. a few of us might see flakes this week. Yes...my bad...just an outburst of frustration.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disc Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I can do without the ice, but soundings from ROA look too warm (5*C) at the surface anyway; I'm counting on it being rain. We usually don't get much in the way of ice in the valley on border line stuff. The higher elevations surrounding the valley may see something.

Well take that back, Cad signature in January now means 40f and rain. Probably a few degrees colder than the GFS suggests but no serious ZR event.
