  1. Does anyone know if the Holly & evergreens that are brown & losing their leaves will come back? I’ve never seen them look dead. My whole neighborhood is wondering & in shock. The damage is significant. It’s going to be an expensive spring if they are dead. I have 13’ Holly trees that are 16 yo old. I can’t remove them myself. Not counting my new evergreen spruces I planted. They were expensive. $99 a piece!
  2. Agree. I believe severe threat this year will be much more common & likely as we head into February & March. I hope I eat crow. Looking at next 2 weeks. The temps keep trending warmer. Was supposed to be mid 40’s. Now forecast in 50’s & near 60. Which is perfect wx.
  3. Most definitely. The NFL needs to reevaluate what’s important. $$$ or a human life. It’s sad that 2 coaches & players had to cancel that game. The NFL has become a disgusting organization. Putting players health & injuries last & $$$ first.
  4. Key word there is SouthernWx. This forum is very chill & informative. You don’t see the bipolar here. Yes disappointment & ups & downs are normal in following wx. I have enjoyed these warmer days. A question for everyone. I have some bushes that look dead after that hard freeze & 0 temps we had. Will they come back or could it have killed them? My neighbor also asked me the same question. Even the hollies took a beating.
  5. Funny I was just reading BAMWX & they are like nope going to be a warm January. No winter it appears they say.
  6. I gotta admit I’m not disappointed. The one that hit Nashville to Mt.Juliet to Lebanon to Cookeville in my opinion should cover the next 10 years. Then the one that hit NW TN to KY should cover them for the next 10 years. Wx seems to be doing the opposite of what analogs are saying these days.
  7. I can say I am happy for the warmer wx. 60’s will be short sleeves for sure. 54 & Sunny on Wednesday will feel great. 63 & Sunny on Sunday fabulous. Actually might feel hot after this cold we just had. With daughter soccer starting up especially first of February. I will take the warmer wx. We have a showcase tournament in Gatlinburg first weekend of February. It is on turf so no cancellations. Please at least let it be sunny this year.
  8. Any warmth in January has me worried it stays warm & brings severe wx. Though this cold has been really interesting to experience, that’s enough of this extreme cold for me.
  9. Jags should win easily over the Titans. Jags will be good for several years. Titans time to clean house completely & start over. This includes all the coaching staff & players. What a dumpster fire.
  10. One would think during times like these. The game would be canceled if the grid is strained. Now think tonight how it will be further strained due to the cooking & whatever else has to happen at the game. All those suites having to be heated even warmer. It’s just a pile of poop.
  11. Exactly. So a bar & NFL game is more important than heating peoples homes.
  12. Same here in Smyrna. 30 min. exactly. It makes no sense with the technology we have in todays times. What makes me mad is you have downtown bars & Titans stadium lit up all night. Those are not necessities. Is an NFL game more important than senior citizens in their houses? Guaranteed the TVA ceo who got a $7 million salary did not do wo.
  13. Salt does not work at these temps. 4x4 does not work on ice. Honestly it was crazy for people to be out in these conditions. It’s dangerous.
  14. Definitely going to be warm it appears for New Year’s. The TWC yeah I know has here at 66 & 60’s most of that week. IF it stays that way for a couple weeks then the fescue will awaken. I just had to mow my yard this week. That should stop at least temporarily after this Christmas weekend.
  15. Sadly it’s the CMC. I don’t remember it ever being right.
  16. This is so true! If it’s going to be dry. 99% correct 10 days out. If it’s going to rain. 99% correct 10 days out. If it’s going to be HOT. 110% correct 2 weeks out! Now for cold & snow. One has to go outside wear flip flops & a speedo & look for a rock if can find one. Then you will know if it is cold & snowy.
  17. I’m good with that lol. Maybe makes this dry arctic air retreat quicker.
  18. So looks like 3 days below freezing then by NY near 60. That is with rain of course. Hopefully we don’t have flooding & severe wx in January. It would not be the first January to have those. What once looked promising for a few weeks of winter is fading quickly. Crazy how quickly things change.
  19. Maybe this front will not make it here. I know it will but it would not hurt my feelings if this Arctic air would stay north of us. Dry & cold I’m not interested in.
  20. I say bring it. Cold & dry especially this cold. I will take a hard pass. I’m already thinking about in 10 days we’re back to the 50’s. With sunshine that will be nice.
  21. The older I get the more I feel a move to FL is what I need to do. This type of cold & no snow is just brutal. I admit I’m looking forward to this cold spell being over. Those 50’s will be nice especially if it’s sunny.
