Howdy, radu! How was your day? Is it cold and nasty there, too? Hope you didn’t have to get out for anything if it was.

Hubby said we got about 1/2” of rain, so that’s a plus! Still pretty cold, though.

I am staying warm by not going out. LOL! Well...except to feed the kittehs and tomorrow for church. Thank goodness there was no reason to get out.

How are things there? Are you finally getting some decent snow?

Howdy, LUV!

Not too cold but VERY wet here. Constant rain - mostly light but sometimes a little heavier - and there was 1.5 inch in the gauge when I checked it a short time ago. We’re in a lull now but more is on the way.
Snow in NC and AR, sleet across north TN, and we’re fortunate enough to have just rain.
I’ve only stepped outside once and that was to check the gauge. LOL

Glad you got some rain out of the deal though I reckon the kittehs aren’t too happy about it. Bad enough it being cold but wet on top of it is the pits for them.

Wow! You got a lot of rain! Maybe it’ll dry out soon. I have forgotten to check DH to see if it’s snowing there. It wasn’t this morning.

Ah, those kitties have lots of nice warm spots to get out of the rain and I think the only thing that brings them out is food. Then they disappear *poof*. :)

Left on my errands forgetting about the rain. Sweatshirt got damp, but not bad. Temps dropping enough in the last couple hours to turn the rain to really, really wet snow....not even an inch.

Glad I don’t have to go out tomorrow.

Sure happy you are warm enough to prevent ice.

I’m hoping this WET AND HEAVY snow doesn’t ice the power lines. They’ve already been having issues with the internet.

If it had rained hard all day, we’d be in a swamp tonight. Fortunately, it’s primarily been light rain.
The DH cam #1 went down this afternoon, as it does too often, but cam #2 is working. It’s sleeting up there and has been for a little while. :-(

You do have everything set up for the kittehs to stay warm and dry but you know they’d rather be out hunting and playing. :-)

I gather it wasn’t raining when you headed out. I hope you didn’t get chilled by your damp sweatshirt. Do NOT want you getting sick!

EEK on the wet heavy snow! Don’t need the powerlines getting knocked down by the weight or by tree limbs crashing down on them.

I’ve been checking the radar periodically to keep an eye on where it’s sleeting since my brother lives in the northern part of TN. So far, so good, they just have rain. They have ice storms up there more often than we do and I hope they can get through this weekend without one.

Tomorrow night into Monday morning is when we’ll get some frozen stuff. It’ll be nice if it’s snow rather than sleet or freezing rain because we’d like to get through this storm without an ice storm too!

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

Did you get through the day without any snow? I reckon it wasn’t a very good day for a romp at the lake with Gizmo.

Just VERY wet here and warm enough it’s just rain ..... so far.

Well, if they want to be wet and cold, then they can get out and play. Plenty of time for that. it’ll be dry before ya know it. LOL

EEK! I just looked at the clock. I’m going to be sooooo sorry when that alarm goes off in the morning. See ya tomorrow night! :)

YIKES! You have some worry time coming.

Hope you are able to stay mostly above freezing, but if not, hope you get snow and not ice.

And no ice storms for your brother.

Like they want to play bad enough to get wet and cold. LOL
Just have to settle for being bored until it’s dry. :-)

You did stay up a bit late tonight. Gonna hurt when the alarm goes off in the morning. Drink lotsa caffeine before heading out to church!

Rained off and on til late afternoon. Then within an hour we started getting light, wet, and heavy snow. Maybe a half inch I shoveled off the deck when I fed the ducks. Just went to turn off the deck lights and there is maybe another half inch...I’ll take care of it in the morning.

Every time we get snow it warms up and rains. d:o(

Continue to stay warm.

We’ll be ok between now and then, at least. And the way they showed it, we won’t get a lot of the frozen stuff. This system will be almost out of here by the time it gets that cold and it’ll be scattered showers rather than solid like it’s been today. We should be ok but I don’t know how lucky my brother will be. For now he’s in the “warm” pocket like we are.

I hope your wet snow has stopped by now.

Good morning, E...((HUGS))...hope you and Gizmo were able to dodge the raindrops and get out to play.

A Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

You boys have a fun Sunday.
