'saw something earlier about the storm 0 Las Vegas way too?

Stay warm!

I live in Maine, so know what you're going thru. I have my wood stove and kerosene lamps and a hand water pump, for such emergencies - these give me the necessities. One time, before I had the wood stove, and power went out, I kept warm by burning two lamps in the living room, two in kitchen and one in bath, They kept the house a 70-72! (constant high heat from the lamp chimneys.)

Humm forecasts say RAIN. Looks like a band of clouds north ans south right on top of you. Says rain on Monday also. Good Luck man!!!!

[Travis McGee]

I woke up in a tent this AM during a wild thunderstorm 20 miles north of Julian California at the Mataguay Boy Scout camp. It never snows there, but it did this morning. The pouring rain turned to sleet at 6 AM and snow by 7 AM, leaving a few inches in an hour while we tossed our tents and gear into our vans and hauled butt out of there. Pretty wild way to break camp, after the rangers told us we had a half hour before the roads would be impassible. This is at ony about 2500 feet elevation, about 90 miles NE of San Diego.

Looks like it's all north of ya on the NWS radar.......use the orange balls to play yer round of golf tomorrow !

Stay safe .........:O)

It has been about 50% in the day time.

[backhoe]

I live twenty miles west of Palm Springs, 100 miles North of the Mexican Border. We have eight inches of snow on the ground, no power, no broadband, no satellite. I am on the battery laptop and dialup. The 10 freeway is shut down in the desert due to snow. I am the emergency communications director for this area and we never had anything like this in November. Last year at this time we were on fire.

While I remain highly skeptical about the "global warming hysteria," there is no doubt in my mind that the weather is changing.

Here in the deep South, I am sitting in shirtsleeves at a time I would normally have the heat on. Yesterday, we had to run the A/C at home and in the cars to stay comfortable.

The last 5 years here have displayed milder summers and winters overall. It's been wonderful for the utility bills, but does make you stop and ponder what is going on behind it.

[knarf]

Amazing.
I'm suspicious about the timing of this display, however. I mean, it's, what? ... only 20 days past the election and now this?
I think it is very con veeeeen yent that Bush is in Chile while California is chilly. See the connection? Chile/chilly.
I'm going to call someone, Charlie Rangel or something, and get a Congressional inquiry going on this. This is freepin' hugh.

Stay safe granite, we're prayin' for you and yours.
