Zonny Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 (edited) On Thursday, I had all new windows and sliding doors installed in my house. First thing the 5 installers did was remove all existing windows and the doors. As luck would have it, Thursday was 58º, breezy and rainy. I thought I was going to freeze. Today, will be 70º. I think this has something to do with Murphy and his dumb laws!! Edited December 9, 2018 by Zonny 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moshe Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 It has been wet and very cold. I was layered, but I have not a lot of natural layering. I got cold pretty quick outside last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmet Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 We’re on the cusp of it here in Richmond but a local meteorologist who is a hobbyist and is almost always more accurate than our local news says 6-10” for us (local news says 2-4”) Started here two hours ago and coming down steadily.

Huaco Kid Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 "I know people that exist on 15 Mountain Dews every day. But if a hurricane should be approaching, they suddenly require 2,000 gallons of water and milk." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moshe Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I think it is beginning to be a tropical forest with all this rain. And temps in the 30's penetrate and hurt your bones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARP Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 19 hours ago, Huaco Kid said: I've even showered with snow. You save that for the times you actually can't handle your own stench. Well, considering I worked all night and then had to work a second all night with customers, I used the wipe downs. Eh, they were okay without the smell that I associate baby wipes with. They are thicker and heavier than baby wipes, so they did the job. Going forward I am going to use some personal wipes (Walmart brand) with the Fresh Bath for the best of both worlds. The hotel was handing out water, I declined. Had my own in my luggage. Always carry 2 bottles per night away minimal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this global warming is ridiculous. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borg warner Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 It snowed a couple of inches last night. 1-3 inches predicted tomorrow but it could be a rain-snow mix because of relatively warm temps, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar_ml Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 in the 40/50's the past couple days and a little rain. Y'all get all the fun. (and as my job is to fix standby generators, a good storm really would make me happy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
