Good Morning, sip, winterweatherwatch check in. Tarps on windshield still in place; Gypsygirl did a bit of slipping and sliding; the whiteness is 99 ice pellets and sleet accumulation, 1 percent snow. Sip...
I've got the last of the New Year's spiced cider for this afternoon.
~need to start brew~
Well, we got 4.83 inches of rain total yesterday. When I say "we," I mean the Austin Fire Department station about 0.4miles away. Some places in South Austin got almost 7 inches ... I figure we were luckier.
It didn't freeze here overnight, though it did some 15-20 miles north of here. It got down to 34º last night, and is 34º now; it's forecast to reach 40º today. However, it's supposed to freeze tonight, and thunderstorms are forecast during the freezing period. good thing!
24 starts tonight! I think that deserves meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and green bean casserole ... I might even manage a dessert or two.
The winter weather warning lasts until noon Monday, but now the weather-weenies have added Tuesday to their prognostications ... ice on Monday, snow on Tuesday.
If it happens, I'll get you pictures!
