Ha Ha no using the S word that's swearing.

 

[PILOON]

S--t, It is bright outside now and everything is white!
OK, it's only paper thin but still white.
A long long time ago I would have been thrilled but at my age playing in the snow is not an option.
Shucks I'll have to scrape my windows on the car.

Just finished picking a couple of cucumbers!

Hey - - you keep that white crap over there on the east coast. I'm going out for a ride on my motorcycle today. :laughing: :dance1:

Coating of sleet and snow here last night.

I had two inches up here this morning 26F to boot..

 

[bigtiller]

We had 2 snows this month. 2 tenths early one morning and 1.5 inches a week later. Luckily it only stuck to the grass, every where else it melted as it landed.

 

[Thomas]

Also had white lawn etc. and tonight make more ice. ;(

 

[Oaktree]

A couple inches last night here too. All gone now. High today was only 34.
Hard to believe a couple weeks ago it was around 80 and muggy. Looks like we went straight from August to November skipping my 2 favorite months of the year.

Tell me about it
I got down to Mississippi from Virginia a month ago - had some projects that required warmth and was looking forward to the period when it's below 85°F and above 70°F, usually from mid September to November. I've a bunch of concrete work to do.
Buy NOOOO!! It was near 100° then high 90°'s (except for a day w/5 inches of rain) until Oct 10th. Now it's dropped down to the 60°'s!

Went from mid summer temps to late fall

Now it's tree cutting weather.

Maybe next year.

And a good ride it was - down south - 275 miles round trip - average 62F. See post #6. And I just might go again tomorrow.

I mounted the 3ph blower the other day, tomorrow is cab and chain day, I have a feeling this one is gonna be a good snowmobile winter..

 

[ruffdog]

It looks like we have a nice week of sunny weather coming up. I'll let the grass grow a bit more and mow one more time. (short)

 

[SkeeterFood]

We've already had our first good snowfall, little over a week ago. About 11" total. Still have a good bit of it on the ground, and was nearly 70F yesterday.

[dragoneggs]

We had a record high for yesterday, 75deg. We are having an unbelievable, beautiful sunny week lasting through Sunday they say. All I know, it will be nasty as usual by Halloween.

 

[Thomas]

No snow over night but sure made ice on the small ponds.

I hate Winter!!!!!!! :thumbdown:

You know - I'm with you 2Lane. As I age, ever so gracefully, winter is no longer such a fun time. I don't romp/play in the snow anymore - I plow or shovel it. The cold may nip at my nose but it also makes my poor old hands hurt. Its a lot more fun now to sit in my easy chair sipping a steaming cup of "laced" cocoa and LOOKING outside when its cold. Warm is much more friendly.
