I just went on a short bike ride.  Nothing like cold rain on an after midnight bike ride, except for the post-ride beer.  OPM better do the right thing or I'm screwed.

 

LMAO I know the feeling... except I don't work for the feds... so I just have to hope my company does the right thing...

Oh i know. I respect anyone who moves there just to have a job. Hopefully in a few years you get to go somewhere a bit better.

What do you miss, roller coaster ride?

 

Pretty much, cold and dry gets annoying. Late Spring/Summer/Early Fall is better, but that's only 4-5 months of the year.

Weenie scary story time:

 

Even though it was a different setup.

 

Who remembers that one storm either last year or the year before in March where the changeover was supposed to happen around midnight and we had a forecast of 4-8 with warnings?  We got stuck with sleet for a few hours and ended up with an inch of sleet/snow at IAD that all melted the next morning

Now - 8am: Weak radar and slower changeover will incite panic from the weenies.
8am - Noon: Radar fills in with heavier precip... mostly/all snow. Spirits are lifted.
Noon - 6pm/Early evening: Everyone rejoices with the snow falling. The area gets 4-8" as expected.

Bye, bye, Mr. Government Guy.

You crashed your Chevy off the levy,

And now you have died.

Your good old boys asking OPM why,

That this will be the day that you die

This will be the day that you die

...

(12 minutes/15 verses later)

This will be the day that you die.

ROFLOMBO LOL!!!!

How about the news people just announce what is not closed. No sleet or snow yet? but I have faith!! Heck, even Randy got a snow day today!

 

Wow.  I still feel like crap but your recipe and five hours of sleep definitely have me on the rebound.  What can I put in my morning coffee?

 

:)

My daughter came downstairs and said, in a pitiful voice, "It didn't snow!".  She'll fit in well at AmWx some day.

Ha! I just "suggested" to the husband that he may want to go ahead and pull out the snowblower... just in case. He says...it's just raining and it's like 40 degrees. Can't believe they closed...am I getting breakfast though? I should tell him no breakfast for you!

was wondering where to measure yesterday morning … but looks like all our snow is gone … other than the piles … fog eating snow

 

woke up at 5:30 and turned on TV, 40 in DC … that can't be good

 

heard neighbor getting car out of garage to go to work? (no, I see him working on his snow blower) … that is good

 

see weatherman apologizing because the actual sleet/snow line is further N/W than what is depicted on the screen … not good

 

rain/sleet mix is now sleet … that is good
