hotcntryby's blog post - a weather update

Ok, well yesterday was an interesting day in the weather here. The day started out beautiful and shortly after noon the temps were in the low 60's. The sun was out and it was looking like a great spring day. (other than all the water that was around from the melting snow) About mid afternoon it started to get cloudy and cool off. Then about 4:30 or so, it started raining. Of course adding to water with which was everywhere. Afte several hours of rain it seem to stop. I went to bed about 10:30 and it was just beginning to snow. Not thinking it would be all that bad...Well, reports are that we had thundersnow. You heard me right. Total result was about 4 inches or so of new snow this morning. Good news is that it wasn't heavy snow and the break between the rain and snow gave enough time that most if the water had time to run off so that there do not appear to be large amounts of ice underneath.

I just hope this is all over soon. I'm getting spring fever...that itch ya know...

O well, better get to work...
Later HCB
