A slightly ironic weather update on one news site from yesterday:
1:51 p.m.: Snow has forced the cancellation of the Symphony on the Square Concert in Marietta and the closure of Snow Mountain in Stone Mountain.0 -
Getting brighter out and still snowing pretty decently. Not hard, but what they call snow showers. A great big "shower" of snow fell on the roof last night. At least it sounded like snow, and there was no big CRACK or explosive sort of sound like a branch breaking would likely make...I presume the tree branches dipped enough to drop a load onto the roof. When it gets still lighter I'll look to make sure. No way I was trying to get out there last night. I did look up in the attic and shined a flashlight as far as I could see and all looked OK. May wait until this afternoon when there's been some melt off, to actually look on the roof.

Hi
I went out walking once again this Morning. The temperature this morning was 34 on the porch and 35 on the cable channel. The Weather forecast from last night shows that we should have some snow arriving later today. No snow as of 8AM, It is also a dark dreary looking day and the moon was completely hidden by clouds.

Hi Edparityanimal wrote: »Yeah...I'm not driving anywhere today. Atlanta folks go nuts when they see a snowflake.
As for the bread, eggs, and milk....I guess people make a lot of French Toast when snowed in? Or bread pudding? It always confused me too, as I buy all three of those things when I NEED them, not waiting until a snowstorm.
Then again, I have occasionally happened to need them at the same time as a snowstorm and always hate it when that happens because there is generally a very limited selection by the time I can get to the store. I can make bread if I need it and can live without for a few days too. Milk and eggs I can live without too, but I don't like it when I have to.
I had to croak at Dinah to keep her off the table while I was eating my salad for lunch.
I have seen news reports about the south in general not dealing well with snow on the roads
I had not thought about French Toast or Bread Pudding, Both sound good to me FWIW.
The News Broadcast I saw Friday night showed an snowy scene from Atlanta. I do not know what part, You might know OTOH. The showed a scene looking in the Direction of Ferris Wheel.parityanimal wrote: »And now....drum roll...the forecast is calling for accumulation of 3 to 5 inches! I'm so glad I didn't need to go anywhere today, or, worse, have to come BACK from somewhere today. J doesn't come back until Sunday night and hopefully all this will be melted off by then.
If he needs to stay an extra day or two that's fine too.
I just love it when they keep changing the forecast like that as it is happening. I wonder how many people thought they would be OK and then the snowfall total was upped after they were out on the road.
Better safe than sorry, I much prefer looking out the window at falling snow and snow covered roads to driving the car or the 18 wheeler on them.
I suppose calling it a fabulous Saturday would not work...parityanimal wrote: »Howdy y'all. It's satisfactory Saturday! 32 out there now with an expected high of 39 and 90% chance of snow showers through about 9:45, with accumulation up to 1 inch. I presume they mean 1 additional inch since there's a lot more than 1 inch already down!
I'll see how it looks when it gets a bit brighter.
I believe Your surmise regarding it meaning an additional inch is correct.
Have a Good Day

Hi Valerie
You managed to break Your weather rock
I can manage to fry an egg...
We have a Mixed kitchen, Gas stove and Electric oven...
Thursday I made a sort of Fruit Cake mix Bundt cake. We had left over ready to use fruit mix from the Fruit Cakes my brother makes every year. It was not enough to be a full recipe so the Bundt cake was a experiment that did not get spritzed with Brandy like the fruit cakes do.
Friday we dropped it off along with the Frozen Pecan Pie that was a freebie with the Dried Fruits and Nuts order. The Pecan pie was for the freezer until next week. Thus we got rid of temptation
Bread, Butter, Peanut Butter and Jelly and Bananas would make sense for kids. You could make PB&J and PB&B (Banana) sandwiches. I love a PB&B sandwich more than the old standby PB&J.
Stay Safe and Warm

Well, now that it's brighter out I can see that a branch from a neighbor's pine tree came down and is lying across the fence and part of the roof of our house. It's not what I'd call a really large branch but I won't be able to assess whether there is any roof damage until later. It's small enough that I can hope there won't be much, if any damage, and I'm pretty sure I can get it down without having to call anyone to cut it down for me. But I'll make that assessment when it's a bit warmer and dryer out there...I will shine the light around in the attic again though.

Its 9:11 a.m....and it looks like it may be tapering off and a little brighter than it was an hour ago when it was 'dark' and the flakes were coming fast and they were huge!
And Ed, I had to get out and get my trash can and recycle box...both wearing a 'white hat' of at least 2 inches of snow. And in the mailbox was my SS notification saying we'd be getting a 2% increase. Funny how little 2% is when you start with near nothingness!! And since we didn't get increase last year its sorta more like 1%.
I hope we get some fast melting today. Tomorrow is a hockey morning, and I"d really like to go.....there is only one more game this year. So...need to see some really nice warming happening. Little sunshine wouldn't hurt my feelings either!0 -
We keep having intermittent power blinks. Sometimes for just a moment, sometimes for a few minutes. If this keeps up for the day, I may be eating a can of cold tuna fish or sardines with crackers for lunch.

Stopped for breakfast!
Ed hope you can get that branch down, and don't find any damage.
Roger, I didn't 'break' my weather rock...it was just suffering a white out!!
That is so funny about them closing the man made snow on 'Snow Mountain"...this is not the first time they've had to close it. I'm guessing its because someone may get injured getting back up the hill or a similar issue.
I'm guessing, having not seen your news cast Roger, that the snow shot you saw of Atlanta was Centennial Park, where the fair was. They put up a huge ferris wheel there, as well as other attractions like The World of Coke, the Aquarium, etc. And I just noticed while I was fixing my breakfast that more snow is happening, and best of all...the temp must have come up, cuz there is melting happening out there!

Howdy y'all. It's scintillating Sunday! 25 out there now and looking toward a sunny high of 42 with 0% chance of precipitation.
Hopefully the rest of the snow will melt off today.
I need to get out to Walgreens to pick up a prescription, and while out may hop into Aldi to see if they have any milk. I'm not out but I opened the last container so it's on the list. If they have any canned soup that calls out to me I may get some of that too.
I ordered in last night. Chinese. I ate the soup and a small portion of twice cooked pork with pork fried rice. More of the pork this morning for breakfast, and there's enough left for lunch and maybe a small snack or possibly even dinner.
I can recall a time in my life when I'd have eaten up that whole delivery easily, but no more! I generally get two to four meals now, depending on exactly what type of thing I ordered. If it's a combo, I'll surely get two. Maybe three. Last night it was a la carte, so the entree and rice might have been a bit bigger, each, and I knew when I opened it that it would be three or four meals for me.
I usually get a combo, which is a main dish, fried rice, egg roll, and your choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup, but last night, since I was ordering for just one person, and had to meet the $15 minimum, I assembled my own GIANT "combo" with no egg roll, which is probably a better idea anyway. I love egg rolls but they are rather calorie laden. I suppose I could have placed an order of egg rolls too, but a regular order is TWO egg rolls and I would have had to warm the second one up in the toaster oven unless I had ONLY egg rolls and soup for dinner. That actually sounds pretty good for dinner but oh, the sodium and fat!
Need to feed the cats and get more rest. This cold is progressing in a fairly normal fashion, as far as I can tell, but that means, of course, the sore throat and sinus isn't quite through with me yet, nor the cough. I do, for the moment, have a bit of voice today so I don't have to speak toad frog.
Of course that can be temporary to, depending on how much one uses the voice during a cold. LOL.
Later gators.

Hi
I'm back from walking this Morning + 1 Cent and the footing was snow over a crunchy surface. The temperature this morning was 28 on the porch and 29 on the cable channel. The Weather forecast for yesterday regarding snow arriving came true. From what I could see the depth is around 3 inches.

Things that make you go ... hmmmmmm. Or make the earth hum! Aliens?
I think the war on OFFICE Christmas parties is probably a good idea. I know in my younger days I said and did some things, when drunk, that I later regretted. Not at our office parties, since ours didn't have any alcohol (except maybe in some of the dessert cakes or candy) but at other parties or in bars.
On the wolf whistling being a hate crime...well, hard to think about. I never did that sort of thing myself, but I know some of my female friends liked it and some didn't. If the person isn't one of your friends and you don't know anything about them, then best to not do it, in my opinion. Even if you DO know them, some might appreciate it from a friend but not so much from that leering maniac or dirty old man on the street corner, who might think it's OK if you did it, so they do it too. Probably best to just not do it in public at all, but really, a HATE CRIME? That seems a bit much.
Hackers spying through kid toys. Well, no surprise there. Since they can spy through our smart appliances and know when we are out of milk or eggs, and can tell when our dinner is ready, I'm not surprised that they can spy through kid toys too.

The crunch underfoot as I was walking made me think that it was colder out there than shown on the Thermometer and TV showed this morning before I headed out. There were a few icy spots that I had to be careful walking and there was a mild breeze. I also took along cutters and cleared out some Big weed branches that were blocking the sidewalk, You may be wondering why I did not do it earlier ?

Since I use the Dollar Store milk that does not need refrigeration until opened I always have spares on the shelf. The last one my Brother picked up yesterday since he was going past it is marked with a best sell by date of 30 October, 2018. It will be used well before that naturally. I tend to keep on in the refrigerator to chill for when I am ready to open it for use on the cereal and two on the Pantry shelf.
I'm with You about the Chinese, I used to order the large size of any Entree with a side of a large order of Spare Ribs for example and Egg Rolls
Now I order the small size of anything and ask for the sauce on the side so I use less of it. Locally all the Chinese Lunch come with Pork Fried Rice and choice of Soup, and Dinner Specials come with Pork Fried Rice and Egg Roll. Egg Rolls and Spring Rolls are ordered with one of them. The Diet menu comes with White or Brown Rice and Garlic Sauce on the Side FWIW for comparison.
I'm glad to hear You are feeling better. Save The voiceNeed to feed the cats and get more rest.

As I was posting the last reply I had the pop up You had posted :0
I could tell them what the Hum in the earth is, My tongue in cheek theory is that it is the Motor that keeps the planet spinning.
I am ambivalent with the office parties, The Liability from serving too much booze is most likely driving it. OTOH is it the start of killing them off ?
Hate Crime seems to me to be pandering. Everything between sexes seems to be under attack, You can't tell someone they look nice today or that You like the new hair style / color even. You could be in trouble for holding the door for someone if they decide You are calling them to feeble to do it themselves these days. I am exaggerating slightly of course
Not just kids toys, Now that Baby Monitors connect to the internet and have video and two way voice capability they have been exploited too. I have resigned myself to the fact that privacy as it once was in extinct. People are too sensitive, there was a segment on last nights news.

Q.
It seems like photographing in public is becoming a crime.
A.
Literally every day, someone is being arrested for doing nothing more than taking a photograph in a public place. It makes no sense to me. Photography is an expression of free speech.
That is despite this

Hi
I'm back from walking this Morning + 1 Quarter and the streets and sidewalks were dry except where the snow had been packed down. The temperature this morning was 35 on the porch and 34 on the cable channel. From what I could see the depth is of snow was around 3 inches, OTOH based on the snowfall totals We must have had over 4 inches. Much of that melted on the sidewalks and streets as it landed.

Hi Valerie
Sometimes being cautious pays, I always figure that if the benefit from driving in poor weather does not exceed the chance of wrecking the car to stay home if possible. That is not always possible of course as I have to pay for a missed doctors appointment.
AFAIK Professional Chefs like gas stoves for the fine temperature control they offer not to mention instant heat and off to stop cooking. And even with the power off a match gets the stove lit
If I said IMO PC has gone overboard, I suspect the pendulum will swing to the other extreme in the future as a reaction.
Have a Nice Day
