~~**-- The Weather Thread --**~~

The problem with rain here in CO is that most windshield wipers dry out and cracked because they are used so rarely. Then when it finally does rain, people learn how bad their wipers are and drive like morons because they can't see anything. A few hours later, once the rain has stopped, people quickly forget about their crappy wipers and don't swap them. Mrs Dex is part of that group. She drove around for a year and a half with a broken wiper. It was fixed the first time I drove it in the rain.

^ I try to keep a spare set of wipers in the trunk for this reason.

It was fixin' to rain today but never quite got there. 2013 was literally the driest year on record for LA and it's not getting any better.

SoCal is returning to its normal weather patterns, I'm afraid. That doesn't bode well for the populace.

snowing this morning...only an inch they say is expected but it is still F snowing

Monday we were at a high of 70, Wednesday we were at a high of 31 with ice on the ground. Sunday, we'll be near a high of 70 with rain.

Welcome to SC: Three seasons, one week.

We might hit 50 this weekend. Yay!

Y'all see Al Roker's rant about the idiot mayor of da ATL?

I did see that, and while I do think he is an idiot I think he is being blamed for problems well beyond his control. I'd say the worst problems happened outside the city limits of Atlanta and thus beyond the control of Kasim Reed. He still did a poor job of handling the situation, but I think he is being unfairly blamed for the problems of the entire region.

What can I say, Capt's had an influence on me.

Fschool. No weather line, no announcements, and unless you happen to watch the 6am news, you would have no idea that they're on a 90 minute delayed schedule. Dammit.

I never said I was a role model.

2". Barely. And the roads were relatively clear all the way to work.

Yesterday evening it was a whopping 28 deg.! That's quite a swing from what it was earlier this week. So I was out with the dog clearing any snow I missed when it was so Fcold.

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

The high here is 2. It's positive, I'm not.

 

[Dexman PE PMP]

Forecast for tomorrow's disc golf tournament: high of 25 degrees, with the 1-2" of snow from today likely to remain...
