I had six inches this morning…

I need to introduce mother nature to karma, and see if that changes her attitude.

Someone should write this story. I'm mad at mother nature and couldn't be impartial.

I had eight inches several weeks ago and it lasted four hours days. It has wilted since, however, so I didn’t have to call a specialist as I managed to deal with all the white stuff myself.

How much of the white stuff did you swallow?

 

[EmilyMiller]

On to our third recharge of the snow blower battery. We should have bought two

Unfortunately, middle Georgia only gets 2-3 inches of snow every decade or so lol.

And everything shuts down for a week. Lived there.

We're ready ...

My particular county has a ton of dirt roads, so any significant snow turns this area into a Mad Max anarchy state lol.

 

[NuclearFairy]

Snow? Nope. The weather service says it's going to be wetter and warmer than normal here, so we probably won't see any this year.

BUT what we have had is rain. We have been hit by an atmospheric river coming in from the South Pacific and another will arrive today. All the major rivers have set records for flood levels. Some communities are underwater.

I got a text from my mom a few nights ago saying that they're sheltering in place and in no danger from the water.

Thanks for reminding me to check up on her again, I'm so bad at remembering to contact people myself.

I was taking it by the shovel.

No snow here. Although the temps at night have occasionally dipped below freezing. We don't typically get snow until around the new years though, and then as often as not it's an ice storm.


Yes, but have you ever tried soaking fresh pineapple in salt water? It's delicious. Even better if it's seawater from what I've been told.

Hi kiddy cat avatar
Pineapples and saltwater.

Oh, yeah. Red mud, too, most likely. Stains everything. South Georgia trivia - when we lived there 30+ years ago there is (or was) a county near or on the Florida line with no paved roads.

The relative lack of paved roads in the region and the resulting muck when it rained even just a little completely explains the jacked-up pickup truck phenomenon. "Let's go muddin'!" Like they had a choice.

Cuts the acid and pops the flavor.

My wife grew up where we live (I lived in more populated corners of GA), and its only claim to "fame" was having a giant mud park that had concerts.

Drive finally clear. Note to self: ‘oversized drive’ on the details of a house for sale is not necessarily a plus point.

…of snow that is. How about you?

No snow, but if the tule fog were any thicker we could climb it.

As it is, we're trying to eat our way out with knives and forks. "Pea soup" doesn't come close.

 

[Britva415]

For me 6 inches visibility…Fog in the valley. Has anyone got Rudolf’s number?

1-800-RED-NOSE

 

[NuclearFairy]

1-800-RED-NOSE

No wonder I can never get a hold of him, I always thought it was 1-877-RED-NOSE.

I thought it was 867 5309...

He's been in business since 1939, got those early dibs on the toll free numbers

It may have been tongue-in-cheek @EmilyMillar, but just note for future reference that I am having the mental image of you having six unspecified inches each and every time I open up the AH. Which is a lot...

It also hasn't snowed where I am, which isn't helping matters.

 

[Britva415]

six unspecified inches

There's a story title

 

[Aoife_from_Ulster]

…of snow that is. How about you?

You damn tease

We had six or seven. I wanted more MB took me to bed and fixed that issue rather quickly

The six inches, or the times you open up the AH?

 

[TheRedChamber]

Sigh...both.

 

[AngelColleen]

Where I am I am far more likely to get six inches of rain than six inches of…well anything else.

 

[MillieDynamite]

Seeing the thread name, my mind didn't think snow. You a nasty girl!
