Just saw them on TWC; the studio person said Front Royal was the right spot and was getting hammered by the storm. Al replies that "Steph got hammered last night but that is a different story."

We will be able to post from the road better We're about to attempt the short drive to Front Royal, give the electronic devices a chance to charge. Straight up ripping outside, vis 1/8, here's a shot, hot of the press, we were at that barn around 830 with about a foot in the field, probably 16-18 at this point with the hammer down. Will update once we get on the road lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Wilkes, there were literally at least 500 blackbirds in the trees and on the ground in my two neighbors' yard this morning. Thought you'd like to know. Maybe they think it's going to snow soon or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstroke is much more knowledgeable on landscaping than am I, but that might actually mean you have lots of grubs in your soil. I think they don't mature until later in the year, though, so maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvegas-wx Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Power just went out. Localized I'm sure but the wind is really stout today! I was driving back from PTI this morning on I-40 west and damn near blew off the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILMRoss Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Reading the MA forum, sounds like the storm is a pretty big bust for DC, Baltimore, and other places. I think a northward shift in the models 3-4 days out like we had is better than a bust like they're having right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NGaWxNerd Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 A cup of gin (cheap stuff) with 1/2 cup of baby shampoo in hose end sprayer helps with grubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing worse (winter weather wise) than having a WSW for upwards of a foot only to watch it rain and mix. I would much rather the models abandon me completely a couple days out.

jburns Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I hope you brought Jburns' walker. I did bring my walker. And right now the snow is up to the 20" mark on the leg. How deep is the snow where you are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Stream Rider Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I know a lot of places are getting accumulating snow at 33 or 34 degrees, but this storm is busting for a lot of folks as well because of lack of enough cold.

POWERSTROKE Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 You may be right. There are a lot of moles too. They like grubs. Bingo guys. Moles are eating grubs.
