In the previous post that day, I wrote about the coming hurricane. Don’t see any reference to very unusual low temperatures. ?? Two things Published on August 30, 2019 by Marica | Edit It’s 56 degrees. Found at AoSHQ. Linkage on the way.
The good news is the humidity is only 46%, and the temperature is only 99.9 100 making the heat index only 111. This is considerably better than last week, and the week before. No complaints. The model is still forecasting pretty high temperatures for later in the week. 108 will be interesting if it does
I think we’ll end our stroll down Memories of the 2021 Snow with this, a return to normal late February activities. It’s that time of year. Flashlights & Batteries! Originally published on February 23, 2021 I was too busy during last week’s official Mississippi Spring Severe Weather Preparedness Week dealing with actual Mississippi Winter Severe Weather,
I think tomorrow is the day I got the 4WD truck stuck. Which reminds me. I need to check on the rechargables. Let’s Laugh, Shall We? Published on February 18, 2021 by Marica | Edit Noticeably absent? Tire tracks. No mail since Monday. No trash pickup yesterday. Clearly no movement on the truck’s part. Our neighbors have been coming and
There will be chain saws Published on February 18, 2021 by Marica | Edit I cannot quite tell if it took out the fence or not. And it is not possible for me to walk out there. I have never seen snow covered ice this hard. The surface is so solid you could probably bounce a baseball off it. Today’s
Good evening. (I kid.) Originally published on February 17, 2021 It’s Marica cooks Wednesday (complicated week). Breakfast for supper including Cottage Cheese Pancakes whose wet and dry ingredients are in two separate bowls because it’s easier to measure ingredients when the lights are on and I’m not taking any chances. Our old friend the cedar tree.
I learned something a year ago today! It’s called graupel Published on February 17, 2021 From that infallible source: Under some atmospheric conditions, snow crystals may encounter supercooled water droplets. These droplets, which have a diameter of about 10 μm (0.00039 in), can exist in the liquid state at temperatures as low as −40 °C (−40 °F), far below the normal freezing point. Contact between a snow crystal and the supercooled droplets results
Today we are under the threat of tornadoes. It’s that time of year. Poor dogs Originally published on February 17, 2021 I let Missy out this morning and then kicked myself. Whatever bit of thawing the top layer of fine snow had done in the sunshine yesterday was cancelled and turned to a nice thick glassy
A year ago today. There is bad weather coming again this year, too. Possible severe thunderstorms and tornadoes. Cold as well. But as we’ve been hitting 70* the past couple of days, pipes shouldn’t be a problem. I hope. The Starry Night Originally published on February 16, 2021 It is 8:35 and the temperature is 12*
Almost a year ago! Looking through last February’s posts I saw the photo of the old truck stuck in the snow that had several inches of ice underneath. What fun! Daryl couldn’t even get me out with his tractor. 4WD was acting up. Finally it kicked into 4W low and took right off. Coming along
From a year ago tomorrow. Interesting Sky Published on February 5, 2021 Some day I should learn the names of the cloud types. One does not need to know the names to understand, but it would be useful in terms of communication.
This is from a wee bit over two years ago. Mr. Big Food and I were chatting about this non-event just the other day on our way into Starkvegas. They ended up doing a lot of repair work to the levee but mostly everyone just forgot about it as other things captured a planet’s worth
We’ll start with one Mr. Big Food and I enjoyed tremendously over morning coffee. And two each deserving of their own spaces… That will do it for this week’s The Week in Pictures. It is 13*F right now. Stay warm and provisioned!
It is 9:30. It is 25*F outside. These two facts put me in a miserable mood. But no need to take that out on you, Dear Readers! I must have been in a similar mood about six years ago and I see I took it out on some internet idiot. I know my feelings on
I was virtually grandson sitting earlier this morning while Miss M was tie dying. (Dyed & Company does marvelous work on quality apparel and home goods. See below.) We were chatting on g-chat or whatever. I had emailed him a screenshot of something earlier and he said he’d never seen a screenshot before, so I
Yes indeed. We have snow. Not measurable, but we have frozen precipitation in the form of stylized ice crystals. Just wanted to keep you up to date. My informants tell me there’s a Nor’easter in the making.
