snowy weekend!

Bassboss · 12-10-10, 12:42 PM

Listened to the radio this morning, says, we're suppose to get 12" + of snow with weekend, with air temps around -40 and will chill -60 to -75.

Btw, last night I dreamed I was back in Florida FISHING.. cabin fever is really setting in.

WatterBoy · 12-10-10, 02:25 PM

Buckle up! It's not even officially "winter" yet.

We're in for 12-24 inches around the Twin Cities (or so they say right now, but it the storm could still change its course) with steady 20-30mph winds, gusting to 40.

P.S. - Not sure what area your radio forecast is for, but it doesn't seem like it's right. The coldest predicted air temp for Ladysmith in the next 5 days is only -6 on Monday night.

cassidyta · 12-10-10, 03:33 PM

High of 80 on Saturday and 85 on Sunday out this way. Looks like I am back to shorts and flip flops for my weekend fishing!

BigBassin144 · 12-10-10, 05:07 PM

We're supposed to have about 6" this weekend.

Good luck Sammo

bassinbob · 12-10-10, 06:26 PM

Shoot, it's going up to the low 40's tomorrow. I might go for a while if I get out of work early.

MallenManson · 12-10-10, 06:47 PM

Yeah we could get hit here this weekend too. i'm supposed to travel downstate tomorrow and come back sunday night

bamabassman · 12-10-10, 08:06 PM

even WE are supposed to get some of that white stuff. sunday afternoon into sunday night. onna be cold for this area AGAIN............low 18 (wind chill of 9) high monday of only 32 (wind chill of 25). but they say it'll get back up to close to 60 by thursday.

Bob Smith · 12-10-10, 08:15 PM

Looks like a lot of wind on Sunday in North Geogia with snow just north of me, flurries here. Our forecast shows 35 Sunday morning and downhill from there, not reaching above freezing until Wednesday, 15 Monday night, 12 on Tuesday night. I know that you guys north of Tennessee are laughing your booties off at us whining about that, but dang it all! That's cold for us!! lol

bamabassman · 12-10-10, 08:31 PM

AGREED BOB!!!!! it ain't supposed to get this cold here is it?

Nope! It's only the 1st week in December and the 5 acre pond behind my house has had glaze ice completely over it the last three mornings! Global Warming my arse!!

Cavs1123 · 12-11-10, 10:01 PM

Blame global warming right?

WatterBoy · 12-12-10, 01:04 AM

So far we have about 8"-10" here today (45 minutes south of MPLS), lows forecast at -10 tonight with sustained winds of 25-35 mph and gusts up to 50 mph. Wind chills in the -30 to -35 range. Sounds like they have about twice as much snow an hour north of here.

Bender · 12-12-10, 01:29 AM

I just drive back home yesterday from nearly a month in Michigan and Ontario. I had nearly forgotten how cold it gets up there but temps in the teens with high winds reminded me quickly. Sammy, I sure hope you have a good furnace AND a warm fireplace with lots of wood.

On a positive note, you should have safe ice soon! If you can find it through all that snow.

keithdog · 12-12-10, 01:47 AM

We've got the wood burner going all day and plan to keep it going all weekend. Coollldddd tomorrow with 40mph winds and lots of snow. Good day to stay inside. Monday mornings going to really suck though.

Bubba_Bruiser · 12-12-10, 07:41 AM

It stays a balmy 78-98 in Singapore. I don't think I have to worry about any ice or snow anytime soon around here.

lilmule · 12-12-10, 09:32 AM

Woke up this morning with that famous west tn snow on the ground somewhat resembles a weak frost.Was 49 yesterday today 25 as a high,ky lake is 48 main lake and falling,yup place another log on the fire and keep the coffee flowing.
We to have that wind averaging about 19 1/2 mph here but you can keep the white stuff.

bamabassman · 12-12-10, 09:44 AM

rained last night. well lisa said it stormed but i was sleeping so good i didn't hear a thing,lol. the temps are fallin here. winds right now are about 15 mph. i doubt if we get any snow like they said we would (flurries). i am just worried about black ice out there in the morning. that's when folks who don't pay attention make mistakes ya know.

keithdog · 12-12-10, 11:11 AM

Just woke up this morning and the Weather Channel is saying were going to have around 15 inches of snow and winds gusting 25-40 mph over the next two day. It just started snowing from what I'm looking at soooo, after church it's off to Gander Mountain we go. I mean, what else is one supposed to do durring a snow storm???

bamabassman · 12-12-10, 11:55 AM
