Most likely its Brood IX. They are emerging in VA, WV, and NC now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm dreaming....of a white.....Memorial Day.....just like the one's I used to know....... I love snow just as much as the next guy but that looks miserable for late May.

I remember seeing it snow in CO years ago in July. But that was at the top of Mt. Evans at over 14,000 ft. Well, he just texted this to me about 10 minutes ago, so that would be little before 6 pm their time...... so much for May sun angle...... 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 This squall line was supposed to move through at 9pm. It did move thru, then it just kind of stopped. The entire thing is just undulating in place, its like it just decided to quarantine in Central Texas and the rain just wont quit. Its hardly moving at all. The returns are yellow but now I see oranges and even reds developing. I read something about a Wake Low in the AFD. Well, I bitched all day about East Texas hogging all of the rain while I roasted in 94 degree sunshine. I got my rain, all right. In spades. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Time for a new mower. The Briggs & Stratton on my walk behind SP mower just threw a rod lol. Big hole in the side of the block and what looks like a bolt from the connecting rod/cap is laying on the mower deck. Any recommendations on a self propelled push mower? This one is a Snapper and worked fine for 7 years, outside of needing some carb cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably more expensive than a Snapper but hey, you're loaded. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a new Honda HRN216VKA self-propelled push mower (a durable mower) after the Toro that we had since 2003 finally gave up the ghost last month if this adds anything of value for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well funny you mention that. I was just talking to my dad and that is exactly what he has. He seems very happy with it. For the money, I am leaning in that direction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlet Pimpernel Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 SNOW IN MAY!!! Holy cow, this is more that we got all season during actual winter!! . . . Nahhh, just kidding! It's only a coating of cottonwood seeds that are collecting all over the damned place. But it sure looks like snow, and actually did "accumulate" more than what I saw this year! (ETA: I slant-sticked about 3/4 inch total, and it's still falling!) 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
