How's The Weather There ?

Not so great on the US east coast north of Myrtle Beach.

Is that an electric car warmer cover?

Balmy here this winter- hasn't gone below -27; usually in the mid 30's.

If it is...I want my money back...




Because it aint working.

Actually it's an old worn out universal sized Cover Craft Blok It 380 over a custom fit Cover Craft Evolution 4. Cats kept using the evolution for a scratching post so... I covered the cover.
Under it is a Honda Prelude.


^^ those little sticks poking out are 25" wiper blades. The arms raise them about 6" above the window.



Meanwhile mother nature is helping out with the van...and driveway for that matter.

Hi bykfixer,

How much time had elapsed between the two photos? Do you have power, food and drink? :buddies:

Photo 1 was what we awoke to on Saturday after the storm had moved inland over us a bit and it drizzled all night. We had a 3/4" glaze over everything. But the storm had moved north.

The next photos were about an hour before the wrap around effect had ceased. We called it the Chuck Norris roundhouse kick affect due to all the winds.

We were stocked up ok on items provided the roof didn't come off the house.

Folks south of us were plagued with ice and those east got high winds to go with their ice. North and west are all buried in a powdery Utah snow.

Today the big dig begins.





^^ Mother nature hooked me up regarding the van.
There's concrete showing on the other side.

Sunny and low 30s here. I'm able to see large patches of dry pavement everywhere.

in my part of NC we got a solid day and a half of nothing but face pelting sleet. which caused me to respond repeatedly "WHERE YOU AT, SNOW?!?!".

Sunny, 9-13C, slightly windy. Expected some rain this evening. Will rain more the coming days

I watched the radar and kept thinking man it sucks to be those folks. That pink on the radar in a snow storm is never a good thing.
Later I saw reports of a lot of folks in NC being in the dark

When I lived in Greensboro there was an ice storm that coated the place with 4" of it. Living in a high point in a top floor apartment I watched a lightshow as one transformer after another was terminated.
So I started a batch of home made chicken noodle soup before retiring for the evening hoping the chicken cooked before the power went out.

Next morning I awoke to a warm apartment. Whut-thuh? Flipped on a light switch...light? Really?
Well my chicken soup had cooked all night so the noodles had pretty much melted into a mush, risen to the top and begun to crispy-fy.

From the Va border north to well south of high point south, to east of raleigh and west to statesville was completely dark. But an approx 2 mile radius around me never lost power.

Hope you guys have power back.
