A bit of freedom is very enjoyable after a year of hunkering down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of freedom is very enjoyable after a year of hunkering down. Thats what Im hoping for. We have done pretty good at staying home for the most part, only a couple of weekend getaways but it was outdoor activities. It was quick and painless though getting the first one, though I feel more tired today so maybe thats from the shot, Its been 24 hours since it was injected. Apr 2 looks to be the day for round 2 and taking the weekend to feel better from the side effects if we get any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunBlade Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I don’t take severe weather lightly, especially with two young kids. But we just got this email from our sons daycare. Really?!?!? Category 4 storm?!?!? Due to the category 4 storm moving through our area mid-day tomorrow and in considering the safety of all staff and families as a result we will operate on a half day schedule of 7:30am-12:00pm tomorrow, Thursday, March 18, 2021. In case of loss of power or damage to our building or facilities we will communicate any further plans to close beyond tomorrow no later than 7am Friday morning. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landof2rivers Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I rarely venture into the severe thread but what’s up with no update from Blacksburg/ Roanoke since 4:30 this morning? I apologize if it’s been covered in the severe thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those dreaded category 4 storms! I bet the writer of that email is “super concerned” about this “super dangerous” storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Here come the chirping Bust Birds in the severe thread. It gets so tiring after a while. Some people just want to see the world burn and are disappointed when it doesn’t. No wonder this place empties out during non-winter events.

Although I wouldn't put it past some outlet or person to come up with their own set of ratings and write as if it was already known and accepted in hopes of getting their wording adopted.

Shack Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 For days I've been watching the Mid-America storm that is brewing. Decided late last night head up to see my daughter in St. Louis today so I'll be trying to experience one of those late 70's-early 80's sleet fests that I remember from my childhood. We never hear from "Tony" in Griffin, GA anymore on the board. Not sure where he's been these last few years but I know he would share my enthusiasm for such an event. NAM advertising a light glaze before dawn tomorrow, then an all day sleet storm of 1-2" until about midnight, then 10-12" on snow on top from midnight until early afternoon on Thursday. A perfect winter birthday cake! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little disappointed as we didn't get the sleet, though. We started around 3:00am with a little freezing rain but it changed over to almost all snow within an hour or two. Only had a light glaze, less than 1/10th inch before the snow started. But the snow was great. Almost 4" fell on Wednesday and another 7" on Thursday with the second system. We were on the west side so we had a little more than reported at STL. And it was low density snow, and so nice. But it was such a low density that it was mostly impossible to make a snowman.

weatherwiz Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 If anyone is interested in joining a NFL pick em league ($30 fee for the whole season) please check out the thread for more information. This used to be just open to American Weather, however, given lack of signups this has been expanded outside of the form to hopefully draw a bigger participation. If you are interested or even have any friends interested please pass the word along! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
