How's your weather thread

[OopsICroomedmypants]

This is Major Tom to ground control: I'm in northern Lee county and I've been up since 4:00. I went to bring some family to my house to keep warm. I already had a complete sheet of ice on my truck. Not much on the roads yet, but the side roads are frozen with a thin layer of ice. Nothing much on trees and not much coming down YET. 8:20 am saturday

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Sleet and snow here. Roads are covered but very little on the grass yet because it’s mostly sleet.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Absolutely nothing here except panic buying. I would say its people that got caught with their pants down during helene, but this area panic bought during covid.

 

[Dawgbite]

56* here and overcast. Supposed to get in the mid to upper 60’s. If the sun will pop through I might go walk 9 holes. I did crank my generator this week and have plenty of fuel just in case.

 

[PBRME]

Sleet and snow. Good layer on the ground. Grass almost fully covered.

Everybody seems confused but this guy........

 

[Anon1764542011]

Nothing here in Brandon. Don’t think we’ll get anything other than rain. Bread, peanut butter, beer and whiskey ready to go just in case.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

I don’t care what it does as long as it’s not freezing rain

As someone who lived in the Delta in 94...amen to that. Luckily we were close to Parchman so we got power within a few weeks. I know people that went almost a month.

We were out a little over a week. My grandmother in Clarksdale was without power for a month.

It would help when people post to know WHERE they are. I always look here for weather, we’re on the coast so not too worried but the temps look like crap all week.

Now where did I put that emoji, yup there it is...

Ha. The silver lining is that it could be safest place to live in MS. Anyone up to no good is getting as far away from that place as possible. Especially in the 90s.

Max Velocity on the YouTube. Watching traffic cams. People are crazy.

MS pot roast been on since 8:30.
40 and dropping in Natchez.

 

[ll Martain ll]

North of Dallas. Mostly light sleet overnight, but we did get a glaze of freezing rain first. Roads are poor but there are a few people getting around. Supposed to get another round of heavy sleet or snow tonight. I stocked up on supplies this week just in case, but I most likely have some form of PTSD from 2021.

The best part, my current home is on wheels. I can be headed further south in about an hour if necessary.

 

[dog99walker]

Souther Lee Co.,MS, freezing rain here, 1/4”accumulating on the drive and roads. Trees are glistening with ice. Supposed to go on all day and deep into Sunday. Cooking vegetable/beef soup and grilled cheese for lunch. Not tuning in to Vandy game. I’ll wait for twenty days for baseball.

 

[kired]

Very light sleet and freezing rain in Tupelo, not really any accumulation yet

 

[Dawgbite]

We were out a little over a week. My grandmother in Clarksdale was without power for a month.

In NE Ms we were without electricity for 11 days. We had water the entire time though. Our local rural water district put PTO shafts on the pumps. When power fails someone nearby just drives a tractor over and pumps the tanks full of water every day or two.

Went and "rescued" my wife's aunt in Ruleville as soon as the roads became passable from the south........and she never went back !

Is an Aunt better or worse than a mother in law?

Eccentric aunts from the Delta are a hell of a lot mre fun than MIL's . She didn't stay long but she was a character....I still miss her.

In Madison, AL - the southwest part of the county, a mile or two as the crow flies from the Huntsville airport.

Not doing anything now, but before daybreak there was a mixture of snow, sleet, and freezing rain, but it's very light. I put Ice Melt on the front stoop and sidewalk so all is well. We're right on the southern line of all the precipitation - the mid and northern part of Madison county have quite a bit more, but really not much of consequence except television says there have been some problems on the roads. It's the weekend so not that many going to work.

So far, there's really nothing unusual. We've had much, much worse.

Whatcha cookin?

Nothing at the moment. Smoked a roast Wednesday. Planning on grilling chicken tomorrow.

 

[engie]

Headed west on i10. Spent the night in San Antonio thinking it was free and clear ahead of me. Boy was I wrong. 17* in west Texas with ice in front of me.

Interstates are very passable. Secondary roads are more covered but still fine to drive carefully.

 

[She Mate Me]

I'm in Central MS. Right now it looks like we're just south of the line that predicts not much ice below it and lots of ice above it, so the next 18 hours are going to be interesting and very temperature dependent.

It's 38° with a very light rain at this point.

 

[OopsICroomedmypants]

Northern Lee County, ice starting to glisten on tops of tree limbs. Matt showed 2.4 inches of ice for Tupelo by Sunday night. I just can't see it. The temp is going to get above freezing tomorrow (hopefully) so maybe we only get .5 inches. Roads are wet and should freeze overnight. 12:50 pm.

 

[skip dog]

in Jackson, and just light rain as of 1:00pm. Really concerned about how things will develop after midnight as our temps look to dive down going into the morning w/ more rain expected.

I guess what we have in our favor right now is that the ground temps are up b/c it has been decently warm here

Everybody stay safe, and grill good food

 

[Mjoelner]

34 and light rain in Starkville.

Same here in Madison. Looks like temps aren’t expected to drop until about 8AM Sunday & not to get below 31 till late Sunday afternoon. So we may dodge a bullet. Weather app predicting 0.2” of ice.

 

[Duggar Hall Desk]

Piedmont Triad in NC. 25 degrees and precip is supposed to start in 2-3 hours. Current forecast is that it will start as snow and shift to sleet/freezing rain sometime tonight.

 

[rem101]

63 on the coast. Probably get some rain later today.
