I was supposed to meat up with PilotBraden to work on my project Jeep today. The weather has been crappy all day.

Outside: water, ice, and snow falling from the sky. It's cold, windy, and nasty.
Inside: Pink Floyd - Have a Cigar backed by a few hundred watts, dim lights, warm body next to me.
Let it snow.

*To be clear, the warm body next to me is NOT PilotBraden.

Did the first mowing of the lawn today. A pleasant 80 degrees out. I am watching a storm line rolling slowly eastward towards Bristol, TN. Should hit Charlotte sometime Sunday. It's odd to see my radar screen showing such a large amount of blue (snow) north of me. It is the middle of April, right?

Just raining over here in G.R. Per my parents, about an hour north, it's been freezing rain all day.

It's 32F here now, and there is a "wintery" mix in the forecast for tonight.

Michigan weather can kiss my grits.

It was Munchkin's first ever soccer practice today. At 10:30a it was 40 degrees with a light rain and a cold noreastern wind rolling off the lake, right out of Canada.

Generally it sucked and the whole thing was ended early.

Back at home, the grilled cheese sammies were warm and toasty.

80 Saturday, calling for thunderstorms Sunday, and possible snow Monday.

In reply to DrBoost :

We’ve got at least a foot on top of a couple of inches of rain which we can assume is pretty solidly frozen by now.

Wind blowing at 35-40 mph near total white out

A couple weeks ago, one of the local TV news weather people opened the forecast with "Happy January 97th!". So I guess that makes this about January 120th. 32ish. Massive winds. Freezing rain.

We are going to be 80 and cloudy today with rain kicking in this afternoon. Kind of typical for us.

I had to turn the AC off in the garage, it was getting kind of cool in there. I'll probably have to turn it back on today. And mow. Again. Stupid grass.
