A nice day for us!! But a wild Icy day for others!!

Hey there it is great to check in with you again! We have a up and down temperature ride ahead of us! This week is going to be a wild ride. Nature does not seem to want to make up her mind! We will go from temperature Highs today of around the low 40s to temperatures highs tomorrow of the low 30s! You see the Drop!!!!! This is because we have another cold front that will push its way through our area by later tonight into Tomorrow! We will feel it!!!!! I do Like to find any little bit of snow I can and I have been looking at the maps and models all day and have found a slight Chance of some possible light snow flurries for Friday morning!! I will try to spot some!! Also Looking at some of the long range maps I have found our next system to watch! That's right another system! This one is looking like a rain over to a mix to snow showers! Starting Monday into Tuesday!! Now it is still to early to post any possible sticking snow amounts so for now we will just have to Wait and see how things pan out! Then we can get into snowfall totals or rainfall totals! Which I would like the snowfall totals a lot better!! :-)

Speaking of snow! The system that brought us our rain. And Brought Heavy snowfall to the northern states. Which has been named Storm Wolfe, Is now making a mess in other areas like New York!!!!! I think you will be happy that we did not get some of what they are getting! They are seeing Freezing rain in places like Hunter NY, with some Big amounts of Ice! Here is a statement from the NWS I have posted below! This is for sure something they need to be careful with!!!!!


SIGNIFICANT ICE ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST CATSKILLS...THE MID HUDSON VALLEY...CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN TACONICS...BERKSHIRE COUNTY AND LITCHFIELD COUNTY...WITH GENERALLY ONE HALF TO ONE INCH OF ICING. SOME AREAS MAY RECEIVE ONE AND A QUARTER INCH OF ICE ACCUMULATION. THIS AMOUNT OF ICE WOULD RESULT IN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ROAD CONDITIONS...AS WELL AS WIDESPREAD POWER OUTAGES.

You see how just an inch of ice which does not sound like much but IS can do a LOT of damage!!!!! I really do hope all the people in that area take there time and drive safely!!!!! If any of you have family in that area do remind them to take it slow!!!!! Ice is very dangerous!!!!!

Believe it or not! We had a little bit of ice out there here at home yesterday as well!! I was told that my Mom slipped on a patch of Black Ice!! But not to worry she is OK and nothing is wrong!! I just want to take this time to let you all know to always keep a watch for Black Ice this time of year!!!!!

Now with 14 Days and counting Till Christmas here is another Winter Picture! Have a great day bloggers and I will check back soon!!!!!

Humorous Pictures
That's gotta Hurt!!!!! Have a great day!!!!! :-)
