Big snowstorm here that will likely last until Friday. :blink: I'm gonna take pictures later.
We are still in middle of "Snowstorm Allison" as the local news is calling it... we should have about 15 inches of snow when all said and done which should be late this afternoon/evening. :glare: The winds are suppose to pick up this afternoon to around 40 miles per hour... and tomorrow temps dip to 10 degrees (F)... with -20 wind chills... lovely! My hubby just called to see if there is garbage pick up was still on for today... and it is! Can you believe that? They ask everyone else to stay off the roads... those poor guys!
How's the weather by you? Are you/have you been impacted by this storm?
We had some rain & sleet last night adn some more rain this morning but it's just overcast now. It's inthe mid 40s with tomorrow in the mid 50. We have flood warnings going on though because the snow from Saturday is all melting & with all the rain the creeks & rivers are running high & low lying areas on roads have deep puddles on them.
I'm in Central Iowa (Des Moines) and it's pretty nasty out. (Not that I've really left the house! lol but from what I can see out the window). HUGE drifts of snow - and we got about 14-16 inches in the last 24 hrs. Everything is canceled or closed. DH is home - he brought his laptop home from work yesterday since he knew the office would be closed. Wind chill is about -13. We aren't going anywhere today!
Well, while y'all get all the snow we had tornadoes and severe weather all night...just one warning after another for about 3 hours...my nerves were totally raw when it was all overwith..now though the sun is shining and it's about 57 degrees..down from about 75 last night..it's supposed to get colder but nothing like up North. I think I'd rather have a snow storm than tornadoes.![]()
I'm glad you're just far enough north of me that we didn't get all that snow!![]()
Where do you live Nikki? Wow didn't hear about any tornadoes on the news.
