Good morning!!!!

[txdon]

Is this a significant event for your area?

I think Kyle said it was the first time his kids have seen snow?

Yes, yes it is. We had 600% of our yearly snowfall in 5 hours.

Very pretty!

How much snow did your Tempest measure?:laughing:

Got everything done today I had planned! Tired tonight. Even added a fuel shut off valve to the snowblower so I can run the carb dry now! Cab is installed as well. See if the weather guesser is accurate about a more active pattern later this month.

You Texans stay off the roads! That is a foreign substance for you to drive in! :laughing:

Was nice sunny day, got to the upper 30痴.

:laughing:
.42" rain before the vibration plate was covered in snow. The rain gauge next to it shows .4" with the top funnel still full of snow.
Just got back from walking Whipper there is still snow on the streets and it turns to slush when you walk on it, still 33˚F.

That's so the die-hard golfers can find the cup, Don. They break out the hiVis orange balls so they don't lose 'em in the snow.:laughing:

My two brothers, cousin and I played golf in Chesapeake, VA in about 1985-6, started out sunny, was snowing by the ninth hole. We played until every time you hit the ball it looked like a baseball from its snow collection.

I know I am tired.....forget the excitement of the day. We were coming home from town, about 5 miles from the house actually driving sensibly..... Then thud, I hit something, got on the brakes and a deer went sliding down the road in front of us. Neither one of us saw it before I hit it, almost seems like it was sunning itself on the bank beside the road.

Deer did a lot of flopping about until it was across the road, got up and stumbled some, then took off running, seemingly no worse for the wear. No damage to the truck at all which is good, must have caught the deer with the bumper.

That was enough excitement for today

I had one bounce off the side of my truck once. Deer came flying out of the woods as I was going by and it slammed into the truck bed.

It lost it's footing, fell over, got back up and hot footed it on up the hill. A couple dogs came running out of the woods a second or two later in pursuit.
