Urgrace | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 08:06 pm     Ice storm here today in south central Texas. Even the police cruisers were doing 30 on the interstate! (the part that was open to traffic) There are tiny little icicles all over everything and my dh worked diligently to get at least one van door open since they all had a half inch of ice glazed over them. The tv meteorologists advised it was too cold to snow. |
Sabbatia | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 08:52 pm     Hi Grace, it looks like it's supposed to get worse before it gets better. The freezing drizzle has already started here. |
Urgrace | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 10:23 pm     Sabbatia, I know you are getting it much worse than we are. (My son called yesterday to let us know what it was like up there. He couldn't be home for Mary's first birthday.) Is the snow all gone? We are supposed to be getting thunder-ice tonight too! Stay warm sweetie! |
Schoolmarm | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 01:32 am     Just took out the trash. All I can say is BRRRR! |
Grannyg | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 03:35 am     We have the ice in here Mississippi too. Freezing drizzle is already covering the expressway overpasses and several of them have already been closed. Another day missed from school. We will be going to school in June if this doesn't stop. As long as we are out by the time BB4 starts!! We made it all the way through December and January and didn't miss any school and now the end of February and we've miss 2 days!! |
Twinkie | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 04:29 am     It is -2 degrees here in Buffalo. Needless to say I'm not leaving the house today. |
Fluff | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 05:48 am     IT'S SNOWING HERE! *racing around the room* |
Faerygdds | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 06:32 am     OMG... There is 2 inches of solid ice outside right now... I moved home to Dallas, Texas to get away from this stuff... |
Juju2bigdog | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 07:12 am     It is SO cold down here almost in Mexico that I am expecting ice next. This is supposed to be the tropics. Some folks only have shorts with them. Thank goodness I have my silk long johns AND gloves and earmuffs. |
Grooch | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 07:21 am     I had to have the a/c running all night to be able to sleep, and I had to use the a/c in my car this morning. I wish we would get some of your cold weather. |
Urgrace | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 10:17 am     Bite your tongue, Groochie. Wishes like that can backfire! Do your earmuffs cover your entire ear, Juju? Better wrap that huge fluffy furcoat tail around your body if this stuff comes all the way down to you. LOL, yes our schools were closed here for a snow day! |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 10:21 am     Urgrace, just sit tight. When I have to put a sweater on because the June air is a little cool in the evening and she is lying on the floor, naked, breathing through a wet wash cloth to survive we will get our revenge.  |
Urgrace | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 05:49 pm     Your mental picture of Grooch is a hoot! Hehhehhe |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 07:03 pm     lol grooch and ms bat. we had snow today about 2 inches, more tonight, more tomorrow, and dammit more friday. this is a pain in the ass. i cannot believe how much snow we have had and are going to have. grooch, move over girl, im coming and im bringing the boys and animals with me.  |
Grooch | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 07:13 pm     It was 86 degrees today and sunny. |
Urgrace | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 08:40 pm     That's okay Grooch. Tomorrow will be better |
Grooch | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 08:42 pm     Well, the 86 degree weather does bring out the problem with toads. I think I may need to ask Draheid about this. |
Juju2bigdog | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 06:08 am     Good idea, Grooch. I think we already ascertained that Weinermr is severely lacking in the toad department. |
Urgrace | Friday, February 28, 2003 - 11:58 pm     Ewww, don't tell Imbewitched about the toads. She's phobic. |
Twinkie | Monday, March 03, 2003 - 04:23 am     Once again it is -2 this morning and we forgot to leave the water trickling in the upstairs bathroom and the pipes froze. Hubby just spent an hour with the blowdryer going on the pipes and pouring boiling water down the drain. (yes the drain froze too)but he finally got everything running. The windchill temp is -15. Again I will not be leaving the house today. This FL girl was seriously not meant to live in weather like this. I've had just about enough. I'm begging hubby to do job searches a little farther south. Like maybe Virginia or the Carolinas. At this temp even my polar bear hubby says he has had enough too. |
Mak1 | Monday, March 03, 2003 - 06:18 am     Same temp here, Twinkie, and the wind is unfreakingbelievable. I was going to go shovel a path for the mail carrier, but he can keep my mail today. I am not going to open the door! Our cable is off and the power has been on and off, too. VA or the Carolinas sound good. North Carolina has had a few ice storms this winter, not sure about South Carolina. Even when they do get bad weather, it's gone in a couple days, though. |

Ginger1218 | Monday, March 03, 2003 - 10:07 am     Ok, no snow here, but incredibly cold - and 40 mph winds. So the temp feels like 0. I have had enough of this winter. Come on Spring. |

Hippyt | Wednesday, March 05, 2003 - 09:36 am     Oh,geez,rofl,that is cool! I mean,cold! |
