    Maybe, but I might need to some QPF for that to happen. I’m not worried about temps here. I’m just afraid that we’ll be short on moisture.

    Or dry up the puddles.

    Your schadenfreude is showing.

    It’s quite in the SE forum. Either everyone has given up or they’re out getting milk and bread.

    What? Do you have a problem with the sky or clouds healing?

    The Mid Atlantic forum now has a thread for this week’s event. They’re whistling for this dog to come northward.

    We could see both a mulch dusting and three inches of snow within the same zip code. I’m one mile south of the Guilford/Rockingham line. I’ll be lucky to see dusting.

    Things are coming along great here in our northern Guilford rice paddies. Perfect timing before the early foot traffic hits the farmers’ market. But, seriously, this is becoming absurd. We should be able to bank all this water for when we’ll really need it in August.

    Look, folks. More rain on the way. This is getting ridiculous. My lawn is like a bog garden at this point.

    Gargling moonshine will cure the coronavirus? Any recommendations for curing poor punctuation and syntax?

    Venn diagram of winter 2019-2020...

    I need to resolve to never read another long-range winter forecast again. Forget a three-month forecast: we can’t even get three days right. We might as well resort to palm reading or pig entrails.

    It’s official. The winter of 2019-2020 can’t bring up its grade no matter what happens over the next month. This winter gets an... F

    KFCX radar is down due to a Verizon communications failure. ”America’s most reliable network.”

    Mark my words: six months from now—when the drought monitor map is painted orange—we won’t be able to buy a drop of rain.

    I’m really not too eager to see 3 to 5 inches of rain on top of already soggy soil. Around our back patio, we have four downspouts that have outlets running under the landscaping. I spent yesterday cleaning out three of them in preparation for this week’s Noahic event, but I’ll be darned if I can’t find the fourth one. It’s covered under mulch and soil and I’ve poked a prodded everywhere with no luck.

    Well, I’m usually pretty reluctant to throw in the towel, but looking long range doesn’t leave me too optimistic. At least I saw flakes and a very light mulch dusting last week, but this season has been miserable. The worst soggy and tepid winter in ages.

    And just when we’re starting to dry out, too. I was getting tired of toweling off my dog’s paws after he came back in.

    Remember when I-40 was the battle line? Now it seems to be I-64.

    I’ve somehow managed to confuse the birds by putting up a second feeder. They have no idea what to do.
  22. magpiemaniac
    Yeah, but they would usually back up their thoughts with a brief explanation of their thinking and not a simple “we ain’t getting jack squat” and then leaving.

    Drinking Sam Adams only sends the snow to Bahston. That’s not helpful. Maybe drink Red Oak or something from Highland or Foothills.

    I don’t remember seeing so much cliff diving around here this early. It’s too early to write this winter off just yet. I’ll start getting nervous in around three weeks or so.

    I’m upgrading from a portable gas generator to a propane whole-house generator, but it’s not scheduled to be installed until the week between Christmas and New Year. Y’all can thank me for this early potential activity in December. Once the generator is installed, January and February will be quite.
