Please check in as soon as you can. We are expecting 2"+ of ICE tonight, tomorrow, snow on top on Wednesday. Stay safe and give the goaties extra hay.
Yep, it's not going to be fun. Bedded everyone down really good, there's a good chance we'll be losing power tomorrow.
Same here. I don't believe I will be making the hilly 12 mile trip to work in the morning. Right now its 27°F and pouring rain. The rain is freezing as it hits the ground. I expect us to loose power also. Got the chain saw and the gas where I can get to it to take care of any trees that fall under the weight. Stay safe and warm till this is over.
Thinking of you and praying all is well. I have seen some scarey pics on tv, so I hope you are all safe. ray:
We started out with snow last nite...it changed over to freezing rain/sleet around 10 and back to snow, now it's raining....we had 2 inches of that mess at 4 30 this morning, DH called in a personal day as since the schools are closed, the township doesn't plow or treat our road...he has a 26 mile trip to get to work.....I'm glad he's home, our gas went off and he was available to go and heat the main line that froze up.....I would have hads to walk the hill and come back down and call the well tender.....very icy here, DH quad had a problem climbing the hill in 4 wheel drive! I've got some pic here! This is a pine in my yard...the boughs are so heavy with ice it's about touching the ground. The goat panels are covered too. This is at the bottom of my yard...those trees are completey covered as well as the road and neighbors car Behind my goat shed...those trees are normally not droopy. And Jack...in his favorite spot....on the manure pile! Must be warm there..lol A HUGE icicle by my back porch
We are finally done! We have 10-12 in. of snow and ice in between. It is a mess! Our electricity was out temporarily. All is well theough!
woke up to snow -- go figure they predicted rain and we got snow :doh: Roads were slick and I had to take it really slow. went to work and it decided to rain in the late afternoon and now all the snow is just about gone (except for the piles) :leap:
We ended up with a light dusting that ended about an hour ago.....just flurries now with maybe 3 inches of accumulated ice and snow. We were lucky, it could have been much worse.
i hope everyone is ok the news this morning says ikt wiped out power in PA and places around there and it was pretty bad check in with us guys :grouphug:
Glad you guys didn't get hit to bad. NO ONE has had school since Monday and aren't expected to tomorrow either.
thats interesting, we dont get Australian weather unless something like a Tsunami happends to hit somewhere we dont hear about weather outside the US
Hi all glad everyone made out ok. Our kids have been out of school all week. We got about 8 inches of snow and thats not included what we got in ice. We lost electric twice, but a lot of people where without for a while. Our super walmart center was out for almost a whole 24 hours. But hopefully everything will start melting now. Cause they sure dont do anything for the back roads I live on.
